Jolla maps thinks GPS is deactivated

Whenever I open Jolla maps (HERE maps) I get the message: "Positioning is deactivated. Check settings/location" (might not be the correct English text since I translated the German one). The message is written on the upper-left map extract next to saved favourites (see screenshot). I cannot click on that short-cut as long as the message is there.

As soon as I swipe the window to the left (to get to the actual map) my location is shown correctly - so location services are activated.

-deactivate & activate location services didn't help -I will try to delete and re-install maps, but for some unknown reasons I can't access Jolla store at the moment

GPS works well in Android applications. Anyone else with the same issue?

Whenever I open Jolla maps (HERE maps) I get the message: "Positioning is deactivated. Check settings/location" (might not be the correct English text since I translated the German one). The message is written on the upper-left map extract next to saved favourites (see screenshot). added screen-shot). I cannot click on that short-cut as long as the message is there.

As soon as I swipe the window to the left (to get to the actual map) my location is shown correctly (even though GPS lock can be incredibly slow) - so but location services are activated.

-deactivate & activate location services in settings didn't help -Re-installing maps doesn't help (& where is the maps application cache isn't removed from system after cache? Maybe deleting those files would help - removing application leaves those files in the application)system) -Tested maps in several locations, indoor & outdoor

GPS works well in Android applications. Anyone else with the same issue? issue or any advice?
