Whatsapp method of background live location #431

I'm sorry to open a ticket for this but I don't seem to understand how whatsapp is able to continually provide a live location update in the background for up to 8 hours and in the read me it says we are limited to only every 15mn.

How is whatsapp able to accomplish this in a way that we cannot?

Thank you so much.

@ImanGhasemiArani thanks but nothing in there really addresses my needs.

Background location is requires special permission, you have to explain the usages when you want to publish your app in appstore or playstore.

nicolasvahidzein commented 1 month ago

Yes but that is not the issue here. I said how to code it not the playstore guidelines.

@ekasetiawans I want the same feature like i want to share my current location continuously unless the user stop it or after some hours like 3-4. I'm using this package but it stop after sometime in terminated state of app. How can i achieve this scenario? I think the battery optimizer stop the service so how can i prevent it?
