Android App terminated 1 minute after display timeout

[MattyBoy4444]

When location request permissions dialog is displayed, using "only this time", the application is terminated 1 minute after display timeout. If permission dialog is not displayed, because you previously answered "While using the app", then this does NOT happen. So, basically every time you turn your phone on with the app in the foreground it is restarting the application!

Hi @MattyBoy4444,

I am looking into this issue but it is not quite clear how to reproduce it. Can you confirm the following reproduction steps are correct:

1. Request permissions using the await Geolocator.requestPermission() method;
2. When the permission dialog is shown select "only this time";
3. Wait for one minute and notice the App is terminated.

Or do I understand it wrong?

[MattyBoy4444]

That looks correct except wait for the phone display to turn off. Then wait one minute.

I am closing this issue as there has been no activity in about two years. If you are encountering this issue on the latest version of the geolocator plugin, feel free to open a new issue, linking this issue.
