Hi sir,
As many times my getcurrentpostion called it pops up accordingly.
I have also used "usesignificantchangesonly:true" but its not stoping.

. getcurrentpostion method -->

 bg.BackgroundGeolocation.getCurrentPosition(
    ). then((bg.Location location) {
      print('adarshaaaaaa');
      widget.store.dispatch(new UpdateCurrentLocationAction(WrappLocation.fromLocation(location)));

      updateLocation(location.coords.latitude, location.coords.longitude);
      // Fluttertoast.showToast( msg: 'LOCATION UPDATING -$location');
    }).catchError((error) {
      print('[getCurrentPosition] ERROR: $error');

That’s correct. #getCurrentPosition launches a foreground-service to ensure completion of the request.

[ADARSHAGNIHOTRI]

then please give me an alternate to hit my updateLocation api without that popup.
actually it's frequency of that one(popup) is very high.

[christocracy]

Why are you executing #getCurrentPosition at “high frequency”?

[ADARSHAGNIHOTRI]

if ((state.profile.provider ?? false) && (state.profile.status ?? 1) > 1 ){
bg.BackgroundGeolocation.getCurrentPosition(
persist: false,
timeout:30
). then((bg.Location location) {
print('adarshaaaaaa');
widget.store.dispatch(new UpdateCurrentLocationAction(WrappLocation.fromLocation(location)));

      updateLocation(location.coords.latitude, location.coords.longitude);
      // Fluttertoast.showToast( msg: 'LOCATION UPDATING -$location');
    }).catchError((error) {
      print('[getCurrentPosition] ERROR: $error');
    });

This is the one i have to perform.Just a Profile condition checking.Suggest me if you get an idea.
thankyou.

Actually popup occurs wherever i call getcurrentPostion . So please give me atleast one solution for which "Location Service activated" should not occur.

[christocracy]

So please give me atleast one solution for which "Location Service activated" should not occur.

There is no solution. You can edit the content of the notification as desired though with Notification config.

I am also, getting the same issue @christocracy, it is very annoying to see it pop up very frequently in the system tray. Is there any way to minimize/limit the occurrence to 1 per day or something.

Otherwise, it will drive the user mad and user at the end may uninstall the app.

Please assist @christocracy

Otherwise, it will drive the user mad and user at the end may uninstall the app.

Why are you executing #getCurrentPosition so often as to see it "pop up very frequently"?

[christocracy]

@nikhiljuneja Show me the config you're using.
