Geolocation PositionChanged Xamarin essentials (not planned)

I have ported most of my stuff to xamarin essentials,however I have noticed that geolocation "PositionChanged" event listener has not made it in xamarin essentials and there is no plan for it and I need it!!

Do I need to revert to the "OLD" PLUGIN to use positionchanged or can i use both xamarin essentials (getlastknownPositionAsync) and the Geolocation plugin just to use "PositionChanged" event?

thanks

  • As you said, there is not currently support for that event in Xamarin Essentials. That is not cool. However, you can still use the "old" plugin to listen to that particular event. They can work together without issues. Just use the ones you need accordingly.
