What do you require assistance about?

"BackgroundGeolocation.onGeofence()" only called first time when listener registered. But when I Re enter and Exit in the location again then the notifications from library triggered but this "BackgroundGeolocation.onGeofence()" not.

I have also used "BackgroundGeolocation.onLocation", it works every time with wired Debugging but when i test with Debug ipa with real Location moving in Real iOS device it does not triggered Event accurately.
