Hey guys, I'm developing an app that uses Geolocation and I've noticed that while previewing the app on a device, Geolocation doesn't seem to work. Is there any way around this? Any help would be great, thanks!

Are you using a browser to preview the app on a device? Does your browser/phone have location services enabled? You may also have to explicitly give permission via the browser upon opening the preview.

It works fine on my PC, but once I am running Construct on Administrator (which I need to do to test on a device) The Geolocation stops working on both the PC and the device.

Compile the APK and see if that works first.

Same problem here... while testing it on browser, it is working fine, but after compiling into an APK (used PhoneGap, with the cordove geolocation plugin enabled), I can install the apk just fine, it also tells me that the app required geolocation, but running it, it always returns lat and lon = 0

Very frustrating.

EDIT: Tested with my other phone and it is working well there... so, must be a bug with my phone then
