Hi @jamesisaac I'm working with background geolocation and need it to run a check every 30 seconds to check if the user is in a certain location and send a push. I set the "priod" to 60, but nothing happens when the app goes to background.

Is it possible to work this way with your library?

Hi there,

Both iOS and Android enforce a minimum period of 15 minutes on the type of scheduling used by this library.

For your use case, I'd recommend something more purpose-built, like this: https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation
