i need my app to send the current location over to an API in the background ,specifically when the app is closed. I found that there are restrictions as to how it can be implemented for IOS. Is there any solution in flutter to implement this for both platforms?

Position userLocation = await geoLocator. getCurrentPosition(desiredAccuracy: LocationAccuracy. high); As you have guessed, this line will actually get the current position.
Get user's latitude and longitude To query the current location of the device, simply make a call to the getCurrentPosition() method. For example: import 'package:geolocator/geolocator. dart';Position position = await Geolocator.
So far i have found a plugin that works in the background - except is it not free.
flutter_background_geolocation 1.7.3

It does exactly what you would want - work in the background for both platforms, you can use it in development for free, but when you launch the app - you need to pay for it (Android platform).
