hello, i'm trying to get location instantly for an app but it doesn't work very efficiently. Sometimes the location is being taken, sometimes it is not. What could the problem be? {code: 3, message: "Unable to fetch location within 10.0s.", PERMISSION_DENIED: 1, POSITION_UNAVAILABLE: 2, TIMEOUT: 3}

I am also having this problem....can get location on Android no problem. Will not get location on iOS..

async componentDidMount() { if (Platform.OS === 'ios') { this.getUserPosition(); } else { try { const granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request( PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, { title: 'Device current location permission', message: 'Allow app to get your current location', buttonNeutral: 'Ask Me Later', buttonNegative: 'Cancel', buttonPositive: 'OK', }, ); if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) { this.getUserPosition(); } else { console.log('Location permission denied'); } } catch (err) { console.warn(err); } } }

getUserPosition = () => { Geolocation.getCurrentPosition( (position) => { this.setState({ currentLat: position.coords.latitude, currentLong: position.coords.longitude, }); }, (error) => Alert.alert('Error', JSON.stringify(error)), {enableHighAccuracy: true, timeout: 1000, maximumAge: 1000}, ); this.watchID = Geolocation.watchPosition((position) => { this.setState({ currentLat: position.coords.latitude, currentLong: position.coords.longitude, }); }); };

<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
	<string>location</string>
	<string>fetch</string>
</array>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Please Allow Location Services</string>

So I fixed it by going into the simulator settings... Privacy => Location => {Your App} => Always Allow
