Enable GPS Capture in Background

Submitted by seadude 3 weeks ago

`Location.Latitude`, `Location.Longitude` and `Location.Altitude` stop reporting when a phone screen is locked and when a phone goes to sleep. This negates any kind of IOT scenario. We need this!

 

I've been getting a popup on my phone lately that says "PowerApps is running in the background, do you want to allow or only allow when the app is in use?".

 

Since PowerApps is ABLE to run in the background, please enable the capture of location information from our apps when the screen is locked/phone asleep.

 

Thank you
