Steps to reproduce
Steps to reproduce
- Setup the Flutter app: Integrate the Geolocator package into a Flutter project.
- Request location permissions: Include the necessary permissions (NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription, NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription, etc.) in the Info.plist file.
- Invoke Geolocator: Attempt to retrieve the current location using Geolocator.getCurrentPosition() or listen to location updates using Geolocator.getPositionStream().
- Run the app on an iOS device: Deploy the app to an iOS device (not an emulator) and monitor the logs for any errors.
Expected results
The app should request location permissions if not already granted, and then successfully retrieve the current location of the device, either once via getCurrentPosition() or continuously via getPositionStream().
Actual results
Unhandled Exception: The operation couldn’t be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 1.)
Code sample
This is the logic i used in my code?
Future<void> _requestLocationPermission() async {
if (_isRequestingPermission) return;
_isRequestingPermission = true;
try {
var status = await Permission.locationWhenInUse.request();
if (status.isGranted) {
_loadInitialLocation();
} else {
// Handle permission denial
}
} finally {
_isRequestingPermission = false;
}
}
// Future<void> _requestLocationPermission() async {
// var status = await Permission.locationWhenInUse.request();
// if (status.isGranted) {
// _loadInitialLocation();
// } else {
// // Handle permission denial
// }
// }
Future<void> _getCurrentLocation() async {
_currentPosition = await geolocator.Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(locationSettings: const geolocator.LocationSettings(accuracy: geolocator.LocationAccuracy.high));
if (!mounted) return;
//_initialCameraOptions = _getCameraOptions(_currentPosition);
_mapboxMap.flyTo(_getCameraOptions(_currentPosition), MapAnimationOptions(duration: 1000));
_updateLocationPuck();
}
void _enableLocationUpdates() {
geolocator.Geolocator.getPositionStream(
locationSettings: const geolocator.LocationSettings(accuracy: geolocator.LocationAccuracy.high)
).listen((geolocator.Position position) {
if (!mounted) return;
setState(() {
_currentPosition = position;
_updateLocationPuck();
});
});
}

Dear @alladyaditi,
Thanks for your input. kCLErrorDomain Code 1 occurs when the user has denied your app access to location services. Can you check if the location services are enabled in : Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Your App.
Kind regards,
the location is only shown when the location is used on while using the app but not ask the next time or when I share
the location shows once on the while using the app and then when I leave the page and comeback the user location button does not work and returns the error above
Dear @alladyaditi,
The situation you describe seems like a different issue. The original issue seems to be resolved. Please file a new issue with clear steps to reproduce.
Kind regards

Do you get the same issue with the example app?
Kind regards,

I also face with this issue. When I use getPositionStream to handle the foreground task, it work normally in the several times, but it throw error "The operation couldn’t be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 1.)" after 1 minutes.
Library version: geolocator: ^12.0.0 flutter_foreground_task: ^8.0.0 mapbox_maps_flutter: ^2.1.0
Flutter 3.22.3
But I have granted the location permission as while in use. Location service also enable.
When I run it in the foreground task. I setup the following setting in ios: locationSettings = AppleSettings( accuracy: LocationAccuracy.bestForNavigation, activityType: ActivityType.fitness, distanceFilter: DISTANCE_UPDATE.toInt(), showBackgroundLocationIndicator: true, allowBackgroundLocationUpdates: true, );
However, when I set the always for location permission, it work correctly. So can you check it in the case of while in use because android work normally in this case.
Thank you.
I have fix this issue. It is not relevant the logic but It require some minor config which does not mention in this docs. But let me share with you guys to try. Because I can not find any solution about this issue in the flutter and iOS side, I switch to research in the React Native which handle the background location. You can follow this documents to setup two things: Privacy plist and one BGTaskSchedulerPermittedIdentifiers in your info.plist
The link: https://github.com/Rapsssito/react-native-background-actions/blob/master/INSTALL.md
Hope this you guys and if this resolve your issue, please host update the document for further using
Thanks, I'll check it out.

huh, Are you using the getCurrentPosition function to update your location in the background? In the background or foreground service task, I use the getPositionStream function and it work for me.
Sample code: _locationSub = myLocationService .listenChangeOfPosition(isBackground: true) .listen((position) => onHandleNewPosition(position));
Stream<Position> listenChangeOfPosition({bool isBackground = false}) { late LocationSettings locationSettings;
if (defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.android) {
locationSettings = AndroidSettings(
accuracy: LocationAccuracy.bestForNavigation,
distanceFilter: DISTANCE_UPDATE.toInt(),
forceLocationManager: true,
intervalDuration: const Duration(seconds: 1),
);
} else if (defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.iOS ||
defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.macOS) {
locationSettings = AppleSettings(
accuracy: LocationAccuracy.bestForNavigation,
activityType: ActivityType.fitness,
distanceFilter: DISTANCE_UPDATE.toInt(),
showBackgroundLocationIndicator: isBackground,
allowBackgroundLocationUpdates: true,
);
} else {
locationSettings = LocationSettings(
accuracy: LocationAccuracy.bestForNavigation,
distanceFilter: DISTANCE_UPDATE.toInt(),
);
}
return Geolocator.getPositionStream(locationSettings: locationSettings);
}
Future
//_initialCameraOptions = _getCameraOptions(_currentPosition);
_mapboxMap.flyTo(_getCameraOptions(_currentPosition),
MapAnimationOptions(duration: 1000));
_updateLocationPuck();
}
void _enableLocationUpdates() { geolocator.Geolocator.getPositionStream( locationSettings: const geolocator.LocationSettings( accuracy: geolocator.LocationAccuracy.high)) .listen((geolocator.Position position) { if (!mounted) return;
setState(() {
_currentPosition = position;
_updateLocationPuck();
});
}); } this is my code
the problem still exists. i created a simple app to retrieve the location via a button. very simple. the logic to retrieve the coordinates i took directly from the description of the geolocator package (and it is correct). looking carefully at the logs, the coordinates are correctly retrieved by the function, but then it breaks down and the exception LOCATION UPDATE FAILURE:Error reason: (null)Error description: The operation couldn't be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 0.).
so the location is correctly retrieved, but it goes no further.
That's weird. So it is a geolocater issue?

https://github.com/Rapsssito/react-native-background-actions/blob/master/INSTALL.md Do you follow this document to update the config in your info.plist?
If you want to run it in the foreground or background task, you have to turn on the location and the background config and force user to turn on the location service in their device.
And in the podfile, You have to remove the following line:
if target.name == "geolocator_apple"
# target.build_configurations.each do |config|
# config.build_settings['GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS'] ||= ['$(inherited)', 'BYPASS_PERMISSION_LOCATION_ALWAYS=1']
# end
# end
if target.name == "geolocator_apple"
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS'] ||= ['$(inherited)', 'BYPASS_PERMISSION_LOCATION_ALWAYS=1']
end
end
i dont have that in my podfile
target 'Runner' do use_frameworks! use_modular_headers!
flutter_install_all_ios_pods File.dirname(File.realpath(FILE)) target 'RunnerTests' do inherit! :search_paths end end
post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target) end end
I Got this bug, when app goes in background.
[ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(40)] Unhandled Exception: The operation couldn’t be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 1.)
#0 GeolocatorApple.getPositionStream.
UP!
Facing the same issue
We do not need to have the updates in the Background, so not forcing the user to have "Always" Permissions
Also for iOS the option allowBackgroundLocationUpdates: false is used, in order to prevent updates in the Background
