Hi over the past couple of months on my runs and walks my strava GPS keeps cutting corners, this results in my distance and times being off. I have tried reinstalling and at the other stuff is says on the site to do but none of it works. Does anyone have a solution for this please 🙏.

That depends completely on your phone. Maybe you have some settings for getting a more precise location or you can disable battery saving features for Strava. If you tried these already unfortunately you can't do anything other than getting a phone with a better GPS reception or another type of recording device. Maybe you can somehow place your phone better during your activities but that would be most likely inconvenient.
