im doing an application that will use GPS in background mode, then i need that it works also when my phone is blocked and with black screen.
but i can’t find any information about if gps is off when phone is blocked
can someone tell me please?
thanks
I’m pretty sure that GPS will also work if you phone is locked and the display is off. There are some GPS apps out there which track your location while you’re driving or walking around also when you phone is locked. “My Tracks” (name of an Android app) for example is one of those apps.
But I think you’ll have to implement a service so you can handle GPS events in “background mode”.
