I use inRoute app on my iPad pro for business. After the 12-12-25 update my map programs stopped work. I use an Bluetooth GPS antenna. I know for sure that my location is set correctly. The antenna has the most recent firmware and up to date. I recently did a reset to factory. I started the iPad as new. Not from the cloud. I also loaded it on my wife's mini and it works?
Any suggestion?
iPad mini 6, iPadOS 18
UPDATE; For anyone who might be having the same issue.
I just received this from the Dual GPS Support.
There has been multiple reports of iOS 26.1 and iOS 26.2 on the iPad not
properly passing the GPS data to apps via Apple Core Location
Frameworks that automatically detects external GPS devices and sends
that location data to the apps. This error has happened a few times over
the years and was always corrected in the following iOS update. However
the iOS26.2 update did not correct this. We are looking into if there
is anything that we can do on our end, however this might have to wait
until the next iOS update due to how Apple detects and sends this data.

Are you certain that your Bluetooth GPS receiver's specifications explicitly state compatibility with iPad and iPadOS 18.x/26.x?
As a diagnostic exercise, are you able to use your Bluetooth GPS receiver with other navigation Apps on your iPad - such as Apple Maps (no cost), Google Maps (no cost), Waze (no cost)?
Given the troubleshooting steps already attempted, you would be best advised to seek assistance from the manufacturer of your GPS receiver.
Yes. I was using it just the day before on the same iPad. I use it flying (Dual Electronics XGPS160). I did an update on the iPad 12-12-25. Then tried to use it again a few days later. That's why I really believed it was the iPad update that caused the problem. Now I'm not sure because I did the factory reset. I have a new one coming.
Thanks
Yes I thought of that, and forgot to mention. I have been in touch with them. The antenna i have is 6 years old, I purchased a new GPS antenna and I have the same problem?
Thank you
