I live in KY and have noticed using Samsung A51 Galaxy that if I type in- "lowes near me" it defaults me to the Lowes store in Indianapolis, IN.

My GPS coordinates in the phone using WAZE or Google Maps identifies my location yet Mozilla does not when searching. My location in Mozilla app is turned on, etc. etc.

With that, I called Verizon (my carrier) and we thought pinging issues from nearby towers and yet they sent me new SIM card and it's been activated. I uninstalled the Mozilla app in my phone, re-installed, signed in to sync up yet the problem has not been solved.

Any help would be appreciated. ken
