That means the App itself is free but there are areas or functions in the app that you need to pay for. For example if it is a game you can play to a certain level and then you need to pay to keep playing it, or you can buy different games within the app if it has more then one game available.

It could have been the fault of the App, but it could have been other factors as well. It depends on where one is to how accurate the info will be, as GPS relies on satellites so the app will try and work with the info it is getting. Also if one is in a city the buildings can effect how much
