[Question] What exactly do promoteToForeground() and demoteToBackground() do? #75

Hi I am curious what exactly promoteToForeground() and demoteToBackground() do? I tried calling them in my callback but got the following error for both, with the respective function. What would be a use case for these?

edit: after looking deeper it doesn't seem that these methods are implemented for iOS, is this true?

 Unhandled Exception: MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method GeofencingService.demoteToBackground on channel plugins.flutter.io/geofencing_plugin_background)
