Background Geolocation for React Native & Expo
The most sophisticated background location-tracking & geofencing SDK with battery-conscious motion-detection intelligence for iOS and Android.
The SDK uses motion-detection APIs (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer) to detect when the device is moving or stationary:
- Moving — location recording starts automatically at the configured
distanceFilter(metres) - Stationary — location services turn off automatically to conserve battery
[!IMPORTANT] This is
v5. For the previous version seev4.x.v4.xlicense keys do not work withv5— log in to the Customer Dashboard to generate av5key. See the Migration Guide for details.
