Inaccurate GPS while moving

Hello,

I bought used iPhone 6s in perfect condition, but I've got problem with it. I'm a runner and I use GPS trackers a lot. I tried to change the app from Endomondo to Runtastic but there was no effect. My tracking is full of waves and it is "rounded". I installed app called GPS Status. It shows sometimes my position with 10m accuarcy but the most of the time there is +-65m and even if the phone is not moving it shows speed occasionally. What should I do?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hello,

I've changed the diveristy antenna, but it didn't help. The GPS is the same inaccurate as it was. Should I check something more?
