Google maps isn’t working. Suspect I turned off location permission at some point. How do I allow https://www.google.com/maps location permission. Found the location section under settings but you don’t seem to be able to manually insert a URL. TIA
Description of the issue: How can this issue be reproduced?
@wiredgeorge,
Let’s get a fresh start on Maps and ensure that we set default permissions properly.
On maps.google.com, click the “lock” icon in the address bar - then click Site settings. On this page, click bothClear data and the Reset permissions buttons here. You will be prompted to refresh the page (maps.google.com) – do so.
After the refresh, you should be prompted to Allow maps the appropriate permissions.
@angelgc,
Thank you, but can you please provide the information requested? What were your Shields settings configured to before turning them off and what extensions do you have installed at this time?
The problem persists. Brave is the only browser showing this behaviour in the location services (I also use Chrome, Edge and Firefox).
My OS is Ubuntu 20.04
@angelgc,
Can you please try creating a new temporary browser profile (ensure you close all other Brave windows except for the one new browser profile window) and tell me if you get the same results on Google maps?
When I tested https://bestvpn.org/html5demos/geo/ this in Chrome vs Brave, the difference was about 10-20meters (side-by-side). So basically the same area, within margin of error
