How accurately does MGT Finder determine your GPS location?
It depends on what data the user provides to the service. If you have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth working along with GPS, the accuracy of location data increases.
See the article, how to improve GPS accuracy on mobile devices. On a desktop (Windows, Mac OS), geo-positioning accuracy may degrade due to the lack of a GPS module.
