Feature request: iOS specifically ask for precise or non-precise location #228

As far as I can see, the enableHighAccuracy prop, has no effect on the precise location, since in both cases enabledHighAccuracy results in either:

kCLLocationAccuracyBest
kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters

which both require precise location.

Since Apple now introduced a new App Privacy section, it would be good to be able to choose in getCurrentPosition if the app should only ask for precise or not precise location, in order to keep the permission to ask for to a minimum.

A new property accuracy is introduced in the recent version. I'll also add support for reduced value which will use kCLLocationAccuracyReduced .

v5.2.0 has been published with reduced as an accuracy option.
