It is probably something to do with your settings in the Get Current Location action.
It will throw an error when your device cannot return the location before the timeout. Make sure your app has location persmissions, and try setting Timeout and Maximum age to empty, and high accuracy to false, and then see if the error still occurs.
Thanks for the reply.
The Get location is still failing despite your recommandations, but i’ve fixed the second problem.
EDIT : It’s still failing after a phone reboot, but if i run google maps in background, it works !
It’s like if the mendix app can’t get a new location, but can use the history of google maps.
EDIT2 : my workaround is to include a map widget in the page and set an history age not too low.
When it fails, the log file seems to be clean.

I have fixed the second problem where the app was crashing when i was editing a textbox. Just redesigning the page did the trick. i have caught the following error in the logs.
I suspect this was coming from the maps widget. When i enter in a textbox, the keyboard show up, resize the page, and try to resize the widget to 0. Moving the widget in a column and give it some space has solved the problem.
