React Native Background Geolocation
Sophisticated, battery-conscious background-geolocation with motion-detection
Overview:
The Background Geolocation plugin for React Native is a sophisticated module that provides background location-tracking and geofencing capabilities for iOS and Android devices. This plugin utilizes motion-detection APIs to optimize battery consumption by recording locations when the device is in motion and conserving energy when it is stationary. It is a reliable solution for developers building location-aware applications.
Features:
- Sophisticated background location-tracking: Utilizes motion-detection APIs to track device location.
- Geofencing module: Supports geofencing functionality for defining virtual boundaries.
- Battery-conscious intelligence: Optimizes battery usage by controlling location-services based on device motion.
- Cross-platform support: Available for React Native, Flutter, Cordova, NativeScript, and native apps.
- Demo application: Includes a fully-featured Demo App for testing and experimenting with different settings.
Installing the Plugin:
- Using Expo:
expo install @mauron85/react-native-background-geolocation
- Using yarn:
yarn add @mauron85/react-native-background-geolocation
- React Native
React Native is a framework for building mobile applications using React and JavaScript. It enables developers to write once and deploy to multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, and the web, while providing a native app-like experience to users.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
