Is this possible on any modern day phone or tablet? Selfhosting as made me very privacy-consciouss and am concerned about my iphone.

Hmmm. That could be what’s slowing down the GPS locking on my old android phone I use for my fitness app.
No SIM card or WiFi access. Takes a good 20 min just to get a GPS lock.
That means it fucks up my distance monitoring and time intervals, if I don’t have patience to wait, which I honesty don’t!
The app is basically a fancy timer at this point.
;)
In that case, your phone needs to “see” at least 4 satellites at the same time (more is even better) to get the first GPS lock, and that’s probably why you need to wait for so long.
It could help to walk to a spot with no buildings, trees etc.
Once there was an app called “GPS essentials” to help with that.
