Expected Behavior
when the device stops moving onMotionChange should be called with isMoving parameter as false and, my code shall save the timestamp of when onMotionChange is called with false, and when the device starts moving it shall be called again with isMoving parameter as true and save the location at which device was stopped into the firebase. please note device is in a CAR.
Actual Behavior
It is not being called and data is not being saved to firebase. We are already saving the continuous locations to firebase which are being held perfectly but onMotionChange is not behaving expectedly.
Context
The app is to track the trip of Bus Drivers, we are successfully saving the continuous updates to firebase. We are adding one more feature for admin, that tracks the stops of buses (stop record shall include time at which bus was stopped, location of the stop, and approximate time for how much time bus was stopped in seconds), so when the bus is stopped it shall save the location, and time of the stop and when the bus starts moving it shall save the data to firebase. But it is not saving the data to firebase but meanwhile, continuous locations are being saved to firebase when the device is moving

Logs
PASTE_YOUR_LOGS_HERE
I have set stopTimout to 0 but its still not being called when bus is stopped..
Here are the logs. If you notice the time stamp of 23:01:24.241 when we take a stop of 1 minute. It didn't fire the onMotionChange. event instead it says locationIsInvalid
[05-24 20:16:19.306 INFO LoggerFacade$a .log
The stopTimeout timer is initiated when the Motion API reports the device is still. It can take some time, depending on the device and quality of the sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer) to report Motion Transition events. There is nothing to be done for the events but wait with the device perfectly still.
Eg:
05-24 21:00:53.821 INFO [ActivityRecognitionService a]
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════
║ Motion Transition Result
╠═════════════════════════════════════════════
╟─ 🔴 EXIT: in_vehicle
╟─ 🎾 ENTER: still
╚═════════════════════════════════════════════
I also suggest you use debug: true so you can hear the motionchange events soundFX. If you don't know what the SoundFx mean, see the api docs Config.debug.
I have set the stopTimeout as 0, but We are not receiving the motion change updates. We made the stop of 1 minute again and the device was perfectly still. Did you check the logs of mentioned time i.e 23:01:24.241
Let the device sit still for as long as required. if it takes 15 minutes or an hour, there's nothing that can be done.
Motion API behaviour is better / worse across different device manufacturers.
When you see this in the logs, the stopTimeout timer will be initiated. If you've set stopTimeout: 0, the plugin will immediately enter the stationary state and fire the onMotionChange event.

How to achieve int? stopTimeout; to 0 minutes so that when the device changes from Motion state to Stationery state the device still sends lat / long every 1 minute?
As We have set heartbeatInterval = 60 seconds
