I can't get trusted places to turn on. I have set this up on every phone I have ever owned. It just won't turn on.

 
Updated Google Play Services to the current version. Wiped cache in Google Play Services and cache partition !
 
Anyone else with this problem on their S25U?

DUDE, Samsung **bleep** the bed with this one. That in no way looks like the way to turn it on. it doesn't even look like a button. So stupid. they should have a simple button like they do with literally everything else. FFS, Samsung.

thanks!

On/off button not present.  Not hidden, screen doesn't move up or down.  Plan simply doesn't work!

Not working properly; it doesn't frequently detect trusted places.

Of course; otherwise, my statement will become "frequently does not" instead.

Well, read what I wrote.  It's not the phone, it's the maps. Use a routine instead of trusted places, and then it will work. When setting an address in a routine, you have the option to expand the radius around the address so it will encompass the whole property, as Google maps does NOT know the area of any given address.  Therefore, it will detect a trusted place when you walk or are in proximity but may not detect you are in that very same place should you move to another location within the property.  Especially problematic in apartment and office buildings.  Setting a routine and either just using a connected wi-fi network or linking the wi-fi network to an address is much more accurate and will work every time. You can add multiple addresses and/or wi-fi networks to a routine and it will activate when any of the conditions are met.  See examples.
