Hi @nmongiya,

What's the content of your "this.getLocation();" method?

[nmongiya]

Hi @DimitarTachev
getLocation() { geolocation.getCurrentLocation({ desiredAccuracy: Accuracy.high, maximumAge: 5000, timeout: 20000 }) .then((location) => { console.log('location received' + location); }) .catch((error) => { console.log('error received' + error); }); }

@nmongiya I suppose you found the same behavior as issue #78. You could try the workaround suggested there till someone implement the logic inside the plugin.

@DimitarTachev, I think this issue is quite serious. I'm finding that it completely breaks nativescript-geolocation on newer devices.

Might try to have a look at the plugin myself, would be good to see if anyone else is working on it.

Thanks for the great plugin btw!

Hi @SM1DDY, thanks for your feedback.

Unfortunately, the fix described in issue #78 is still on our TODO list. It will be great if you are able to implement it in the plugin.

Fixed and released
