This can be frustrating and ruin your travel plans in the process. You might be wondering why Google Maps works fine on Wi-Fi but fails on mobile data.

Don't worry, there are a few ways to fix Google Maps on mobile and resume your travels. Below we'll walk you through some common solutions you can try to resolve the issue.

Make sure mobile data is enabled

This may seem obvious, but you (or another app) may have inadvertently disabled your mobile data connection. Users with limited data plans often turn it off to stay under their data cap, for example.

To check that your cellular data is enabled on your iPhone, swipe down to the notification section and tap the data switch to toggle it on or off.

On Android, swipe down from the top of the screen to bring up the notification shade, and turn on the Mobile data switch.

If your mobile data is not working at all, please take out the SIM card to put it back and check if there is any damage. If your mobile data isn't working at all, despite your best efforts, call your provider for further assistance.

restart your phone

If you're having trouble with Google Maps not working on mobile data, the easiest solution is to restart your phone.

To do this, press and hold your device's power and volume button combination on Android and select the Restart option.

If you're an Apple user with a modern iPhone, you can turn it off and back on. Are you using an older iPhone? No problem, you can also shut down or restart your legacy iPhone.
