========================================
Im using Maps everyday and I have a problem with location. It refreshes very, very slow and navigation is not usable.
I need to clear Google Play Services cache and storage every time I open Maps or other navigation app to work properly.

Go to Google Play Store and download GPS STatus Toolbox.

Press on top left and then hit the menu. Press on Manage A-GPS State and press on Download. You will need to be connected to the internet though.

Once done, go outside and start your maps app, it should hopefully start to use the satellites.

Tried the method. It's still not doing good.

In the same place, hit Reset and then Download. Then do the same. You need to allow time for it to download the necessary GPS data.
Let me know how you get on after, though I don't have anything else to suggest.

This is a firmware issue, no third-party application or settings twiddling will fix it. You'll need to either wait for Asus to issue a patch (unlikely to happen any time soon, this issue was reported on the Android 11 update for ZenFone devices back in May and they still haven't resolved it), or roll back to Android 10.

Asus never fix their problems. 1 year ago I posted a problem with dual app viber that cant receive pictures and cant backup data. They closed the thread and never fixed the problem. I think here will be the same.

Just an update. I was trying to revert to A10 but didn't realized that it will factory reset. After then, it auto upgrade to A11 again.. zzz.
Been using for a few days now. The Google Map GPS is working well.
