Not nearly as good as native for precise location. Although there's been some speculation that can be overcome, but yeah.

- mmcnickle 14y agoThe geolocation API will be as precise as the information the device feeds it. There is no reason it shouldn't be as accurate as the native API. Unless the device doesn't want to provide a data feed to the browser API for some reason.
- untog 14y agoHuh? The HTML5 geolocation API will provide the exact same results that the native one will, especially if you use the enableHighAccuracy flag.

- untog 14y agousing getCurrentPosition() will have extremely variable results, but watchPositition() will return regular results as it gets more and more accurate.
