Re: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
Yeah i guess it is either that or keep paying for the VPN. Regulations in Ontario are ridiculous. They don’t have that craziness across Canada. I did contact the applications but they said they cannot do anything about it. The big issue is that the apps don’t ask the iphone for permission correctly and doesn’t put it in the section to allow precise location only general location. I still think that they need to find a way to make sure this is not a problem. They have the money and should be able to do something.6.9KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
I would love it if it would route me through calgary but i guess for 4 months straight i have been unlucky and getting ontario IP and it never ever realizes i am in winnipeg or calgary or BC. Seems a little weird that this is not under any control of the cellphone company that sold me the service but what can you do if they don’t have any control. Maybe they should not set up an IP in ontario due to all of their regulations. Also 888 poker is smaller but still a big name and binance is not small at all.16KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
And if it only uses GPS and wifi this would be a non issue as i am where i am. GPS should be able to know where i am and since i am not connected to wifi while using cellular data according to your theory it would default to GPS.18KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
I want to add of i am on my wifi private browsing realizes where i am and shows things in winnipeg. Just like with a laptop or desktop. Private browsing will still get your general location as long as you allow the application to track you.18KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
I have reset my network settings did a full reset of the phone. Talked through it with apple support. Talked to telus and they told me that it is the way that there service is set up. It can route me through to toronto or BC or calgary. They said they cannot control which one so i needed a vpn. That is where they tried to sell me their security suite.18KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
Just to make sure people understand. This is a relus issue that is made worse by the iphone. I give the iphone location access but this only activates general location access and not precise location so it thinks i am in ontario. I would allow it to use precise location but the app only asks for general location tracking and apple cannot enable it to allow precise location. This would not be an issue if telus would invest in a better cellular network and show my general location as the city i am in and paid for the service.18KViews0likes7CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
And i know it shows i me in ontario because when i look restaurants up in private browsing it brings me to places close to ontario. Also when i look up NHL games they show them as starting in ontario time zone. My poker app says i cannot play in ontario and to use their ontario app. Bitcoin says i am not allowed to trade due to local regulations because you cannot trade bitcoin in ontario.18KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Live and currently in winnipeg but cellular data shows i am in ontario
This problem is partly due to apple not allowing me to give precise location to certain apps but this would not be a problem if telus could afford to put up a few more towers. I guess it is too much for them. I would switch to bell but gonna stick with telus at the moment because i got a good contract. I just find it pathetic that they can’t provide me an ip where i am at but in ontario where are not allowed to do specific things such as trade bitcoin.18KViews0likes0Comments
