If your trusted place is labeled as "Home" or "Work," this is where the address came from, and there's a chance that Google just has bad metadata for that specific address in its mapping system. Most of us have let Google automatically determine our home and work addresses through Google Maps location data.

Once in the Location menu, select "Location Method" or "Locating Method," then choose "High Accuracy" to ensure GPS is enabled. You can enable GPS by going to your phone's main Settings menu. Other location reporting methods aren't as precise as your phone's actual GPS sensor, and Trusted Places only has a radius of roughly 50 meters, so your phone's reported location needs to be fairly accurate for Trusted Places to work. The first step is the simplest: Make sure you have GPS enabled. Each step is progressively more involved, but they all assume you've tried the previous steps, so make sure to follow them order. The troubleshooting steps below are escalating - in other words, you should start with the first one, try Smart Lock again and see if Trusted Places is fixed, then only proceed to the next step if it isn't.
