In Apple's system, there is an action called startMonitoring and it works when the user moves every 500 meters only, and I think so is for Apple's privacy policy.

In the Android system, it supports this thing easily, but we need someone who is capable in that to add it to the hood without raising anything.

This should already work. Do you have some code or an example?

Hi @JulianBissekkou,

I'm not a swift programmer but I've been a bit researched and I've decided to write this simple code to fetch the current site if the app is permanently locked from the background.

I send a request on API mocking so I can check whether it works or not and I see that it is working well.

But sometimes when you install the application for the first time, you are not asked to take the site in the background, I think this is related to the code and there is a solution if we search well.

Can see my result in my repo on GitHub (https://github.com/michaelnabil230/background-location)

When you lock the simulator and run, you will see that message to allow the application to run in the background and send your location.

[michaelnabil230]

When you change it to always allow, everything will work well
