I just hope @gabinov hasn't bought a "Fake Tablet" for a few €/$ in the big online shop !?? These devices with supposedly Android 9 and a lot of memory are in reality manipulated with Android 4.x and max 16 Gb memory. My friend and I fell for it. And exactly on such a tablet iGO had the same GPS problems as described here

I think the problem is my device and is nothing to do. Even I have a good satellites reception an a accuracy between 2-5 m (checked with GPS fix, GPS Status...) something wear is happening because for all the app I tried the result is same. Waze, iGO basarsoft. iGO word, Magic earth, google maps give same error.
Thanks' all the people spent the time to help me.

That's a good precision for this standard, so it's not a problem.

What I notice after all the tests: when I stop the car at intersection, the cursor on igo map navigation
continue to move forward, it stops, and start slowly to came back where my car is.

@gabinov

Many years ago, in the days of the mythical iGO 6, there was a phenomenon that personal navigation devices [PND], their GPS would go wrong as a result of magnetic inspiration and just so affected the position of the cursor and navigation. The phenomenon was known mainly in "French vehicles" and because of metallic components that were assembled in the front window and there and of course, the PND was located.

Maybe at intersections, there are traffic lights or microwave systems that are too powerful in their impact and inspiration on your specific and "problematic" device?

Maybe a collection of a bit of all of the above makes you this “salad” and not sure false will be solvable, other than switching to a better or more immune device.

What car do you have?
Is there anything glued to the back of the device that is used to settled on a "magnetic" stand?
Do you have any magnetic component on the roof a/o in the area where your mobile/tablet is located?
Does the phenomenon that occurs to you, also happen in another vehicles?

Almost anything can be the cause and the effect, and the "weird" should not be ruled out either.

@kwbs
Only my device can be the problem because all the tests I tried didn't have any result.
Now I ordered an external gps receiver for satellite reception instead built-in gps device.
I let you know if it will works.

Good night, I downloaded the igo and installed it all right until I want to change to another scheme for another that I have active and at the moment it leaves me again with the one that comes as standard and tested bars and it makes me the same even in the ones that come in the download if someone could help me so that I can change the scheme without changing
