    I had downloaded OsmAnd but forgot about it. After reading this post, I fired it up. It took a minute to download a map for my area. It returned a map of Kansas. I’m in Texas 🤔 I guess I gotta fix that somehow.

      Did you allow it to access your location? Is your location already fixed? Are you behind a proxy or VPN server?

      Just downloaded it and got Kansas too. Press the little arrow to allow current location while using and it will update to your correct location.

      Thanks, guys, I got it to update with the correct map. This thing has a ton of options! Those of you who want granular control over apps, this is right up your alley.
