iOS: the application is unable to stay alive in the background with "When in use" privacy.

Open ironmanromeo opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Your Environment

  • Plugin version: ^4.4.4
  • Platform: iOS
  • OS version: 15.2.1
  • Device manufacturer / model: iPhone 13 PRO, iPhone 6S, iPhone X, iPhone 12
  • React Native version (react-native -v):r eact-native-cli: 2.0.1 - react-native: 0.64.3
  • Plugin config
{
    desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_NAVIGATION,
    preventSuspend: true,
    heartbeatInterval: 60,
    stopTimeout: 60*10,
    locationAuthorizationRequest: 'WhenInUse',
    debug: false,
    logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE,
    //transistorAuthorizationToken: token,
    distanceFilter: 10,
    isMoving:true,
    pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically:false,
    showsBackgroundLocationIndicator:true,
    disableStopDetection:true
}

Expected Behavior

That the plug-in works with "When in use"

Actual Behavior

It does not work as expected: application goes in sleep mode and stop tracking

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Turn on the service
  2. Put the app in the background
  3. Put the app in the foreground
  4. Stop the service
  5. Restart the service
  6. Put the app in the background again
  7. After a while the blue symbol of the app disappears, identifying the geolog service is not in the background anymore

Context

OUT MILESTONE: allow the application to work on the iOS and Android side with the "When in use" and not "Always" permission.

We must achieve the goal provided by competing applications that allow you to stay with the app in the background without being closed by the system. We tried various configurations without achieving the desired goal.

We have read several times the document https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation/wiki/Philosophy-of-Operation which refers to the "Always" permission, where the application is terminated by the system and reactivated when you need to manage an event.

const MacSettings = { desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_NAVIGATION, preventSuspend: true, heartbeatInterval: 60, locationAuthorizationRequest: 'WhenInUse', debug: false, logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, //transistorAuthorizationToken: token, distanceFilter: 10, isMoving:true, showsBackgroundLocationIndicator:true, }

const state = await BackgroundGeolocation.ready(MacSettings)

TS MILESTONE: .ready

We have verified that "ready" is called at startup only once as noted in this note: "⚠️ Warning: You must call #ready once and only once, each time your app is launched.”

We call the ready inside a useEffect with an empty array dependency, exactly as we do in the example application.

FIRST TRY: iOS preventSuspend mode

Reading the documentation it would seem that with this setting alone the application should never go into a "suspended" state even though the tracking service is not always on (GPS off). The documentation mentions no use of "black magic", but does not specify exactly what the plug-in does to stay active at all times. From our tests we understand that the plug-in uses the "CoreMotion" framework to turn the service on and off. During this period, however, the service should always remain active and never send the application "suspended". Unfortunately this does not happen and after a certain period of time the blue box identifying the active background tracking service goes out and the application stops tracking.

From what we understand "black magic" consists of this event that is sent by default every minute: "While in the #preventSuspend mode in the stationary state, the plugin is able to fire a heartbeat event periodically (#heartbeatInterval). The heartbeat event will fire your Javascript callback:"

So the "preventSuspend" should be: if the user moves the plug-in via CoreMotion he turns off the heartbeat event and switches the tracking back on (GPS on), if he stops the plug-in he notices that there is no more movement and stop tracking (GPS off), from that moment a poll on a background task starts to keep the application alive. This should be the "clever and acceptable" way to keep the application alive.

bgGeo.configure ({ preventSuspend: true, heartbeatInterval: 60, // <- every minute stopOnTerminate: false, debug: true });

What we discovered is that if we leave it in debug it "seems" to actually stay in this state, if we turn off debugging unfortunately it doesn't.

After reporting this issue to the developer we get this as an answer: “See api docs Config.pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically”

SECOND TRY: Config.pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically

We have therefore added (first by itself and then with the other settings) the aforementioned parameter. According to what is written, the plug-in makes useless the activation and deactivation mechanism of the service which is always "on". Unfortunately, even in this case, after an indefinite period of time, the service switches off.

const MacSettings = { desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_NAVIGATION, preventSuspend: true, heartbeatInterval: 60, locationAuthorizationRequest: 'WhenInUse', debug: false, logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, //transistorAuthorizationToken: token, distanceFilter: 10, isMoving:true, pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically:false, showsBackgroundLocationIndicator:true, disableStopDetection:true }

THIRD TRY: changePace(true)

Based on a response from the support team we tried to interpret this sentence: "When you use WhenInUse, the plugin will remain tracking until you .stop (), .changePace (false) or Config.stopTimeout expires."

BackgroundGeolocation.changePace(true); // <-- Location-services ON ("moving" state)

In theory changePace(true) combined with pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically:false should (logically) keep the service active as if we were always on the move. Unfortunately this does not happen either.

FOURTH TRY: stopTimeout: 60*10

After trying to bring this value to a maximum of 15 minutes as a timeout and discovering that after that time the plug-in stopped, we tried to keep the service active by extending the time to 10 hours (60 * 10). Not even this solution has had a positive effect.

What we discovered is that if we leave it in debug mode on it "seems" to actually stay in this state, if we turn off debugging unfortunately it doesn't.

The latest version of the configuration is this.

const MacSettings = { desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_NAVIGATION, preventSuspend: true, heartbeatInterval: 60, stopTimeout: 60*10, locationAuthorizationRequest: 'WhenInUse', debug: false, logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, //transistorAuthorizationToken: token, distanceFilter: 10, isMoving:true, pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically:false, showsBackgroundLocationIndicator:true, disableStopDetection:true }

SUMMING UP

Unfortunately, this time (about a month of tests) is lengthening the application release time and the tests we are doing on the Android side unfortunately also show the same problem here. But before addressing the problem on the Android front we would prefer (always possible) to conclude the iOS part with your help.

The first question we haven't had an official answer yet is: is the plug-in capable of working with privacy "When in use" on both iOS and Android? From our e-mails it seemed so and we made our client buy the Android license.

The second question we ask you is: if it is not clear from the documentation what kind of configuration is needed to get what we need, can you provide it? Is this information part of the paid support of the multiple license?

We are having the same issue since iOS update 15.1+ See my comment here : https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation/issues/1455 Also tried setting the "changePace(true)" and same happens

My proposal is to change desiredAccuracy to DESIRED_ACCURACY_HIGH. It is pretty good for all cases and consumes significantly less energy on iPhones (checked with an app written in swift). Here are my settings for iOS and it works pretty well. I can record for many hours without killing location service by OS.

          stopOnTerminate: false, // not necessary for When in use permission
          desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DESIRED_ACCURACY_HIGH,
          distanceFilter: 10, // this can be customized according to your needs
          stopTimeout:  isIOS ? 30 : 15,
          desiredOdometerAccuracy: 60, // this can be customized according to your needs
          preventSuspend: true,
          heartbeatInterval: 60,
          activityType: BackgroundGeolocation.ACTIVITY_TYPE_FITNESS,
          pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically: false,
          disableStopDetection: true, // this is quite important

What I do to start service is .start() and .changePace(true). Location permission on a device is When in use. With such settings, I have no issues. Tested on iPhone 8 & iPhone 12 (the app is on the market).

Speaking about Android devices remember that your app HAS TO BE added to exceptions in the energy manager on your device.

I hope it will help you.

And here is a link to documentation that describes how to keep location services online on iOS
