Just installed the app.

Started it up, and it stated my current location was on a place called "Coronation Road" which is actually located about 2.12 miles from my home address [where I currently am!!]...

...any reason for this mis-hap?

You have got the "Use GPS" option activated? Otherwise it'll only locate you approximately based on cell mast location information... I think.

Indeed that is correct.

And if you are somewhere where your device can see enough cells, it can actually get to within about 200 metres of your true location , without needing the gps.

Just look at the blue circle around the dot where it places you. That is their accuracy scale for that location.
