watchPosition on iphoneXR causes Cordova crash/restart

[EZSlim]

Bug Report

Using this code on an iPhone XR var watchID = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(onSuccess, onError, { maximumAge: 3, timeout: 5000, enableHighAccuracy: true });

ios version 12.2

NOTE: same code on other iphone devices (iphone 5SE, iphone 6S, iphone 7) does NOT cause the crash.

Causes what I believe to be a Cordova crash and restart. See ios analytics files (attached/included)

Problem

After about 2 minutes after starting up the watchPosition with the given parameters, the app appeared to crash. This information from the ios analytics file led me to watchPosition: Event: wakeups Action taken: none Wakeups: 45001 wakeups over the last 211 seconds (213 wakeups per second average), exceeding limit of 150 wakeups per second over 300 seconds Wakeups limit: 45000 Limit duration: 300s Wakeups caused: 45001 Duration: 145.75s Steps: 11

Suppressed the start of watchPosition and the app operated stable.

Command or Code

var watchID = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(onSuccess, onError, { maximumAge: 3, timeout: 5000, enableHighAccuracy: true });

More information: It isn't necessarily the watchPosition that is the cause...it is some combination of the usage of watchPosition and clearWatch that is the issue.....I'm doing more testing and analysis and will post more information at a later time.

I can confirm this issue on iOS 12.2 and 12.3, Although I just get a timeout error.

I've reverted to polling getCurrentPermission.

Is this reproducible in a new, plain Cordova app? A minimal reproduction repository would really help to debug and later fix this issue. More information on how to create one: https://github.com/apache/cordova-contribute/blob/master/create-reproduction.md
