Placemark
instances where not correctly converted to json (thanks to @efraimrodrigues); - Corrected a spelling mistake in the

- Extended the example application;
- Use the correct permission level enumeration;

4.0.2 #
- Bug fix on Android which causing the
Reply already submitted
error; - Updated
location_permission
plugin to version2.0.0
.
4.0.1 #
- Updated to latest version of the Location Permissions plugin (1.1.0).
4.0.0 #
- Overhauled the permissions system to make sure the plugin only depends on the location API. This means when using this version of the plugin Apple requires only entries for the
NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription
and/ orNSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription
in theInfo.plist
. - *breaking- As part of the permission system overhaul, we removed the
disabled
permission status. To check if the location services are running you should call theisLocationServiceEnabled
method. This means you can now also request permissions when the location services are disabled.
3.0.1 #
- Updated dependencies on Permission Handler and Google API Availability to remove Kotlin dependency.
3.0.0 #
- *breaking- Updated to support AndroidX;
- Added API method
isLocationServiceEnabled
to check if location services are enabled or disabled - Removed method
checkGeolocationStatus
(marked deprecated in version 1.6.4); - Updated to latest version of Permission Handler plugin to solve some small issues on iOS;

- Updated static code analyses to confirm to latest recommendations from Flutter team.
2.1.1 #
- Updated iOS code to Swift 4.2
- Updated to latest version of the permission_handler plugin (v2.1.2)
2.1.0 #
- Updated dependencies on Permission Handler and Google API Availability plugins.
2.0.2 #
- Updated Gradle version
2.0.1 #
- Bug fix where a null reference exception occurs because the timestamp of the
Position
could benull
when fetching aPlacemark
using theplacemarkFromAddress
orplacemarkFromCoordinates
methods.
2.0.0 #
- *breaking- The
getPositionStream
method now directly returns an instance of theStream<Position>
class, meaning there is no need toawait
the method before being able to access the stream; - *breaking- Arguments for the methods
getCurrentPosition
andgetLastKnownPosition
are now named optional parameters instead of positional optional parameters; - By default Geolocator will use FusedLocationProviderClient on Android when Google Play Services are available. It will fall back to LocationManager when it is not available. You can override the behaviour by setting
Geolocator geolocator = Geolocator()..forceAndroidLocationManager = true;
- Allow developers to specify a desired interval for active location updates, in milliseconds (Android only).
1.7.0 #
- Added timestamp to instances of the
Position
class indicating when the GPS fix was acquired; - Updated the dependency on the
PermissionHandler
to version >=2.0.0 <3.0.0.
1.6.5 #
- Fixed bug on Android when not supplying a locale while using the Geocoding features.
1.6.4 #
- Added support to supply a locale when using the
placemarkFromAddress
andplacemarkFromCoordinates
methods. - Deprecated the static method
checkGeolocationStatus
in favor of the instance methodcheckGeolocationPermissionStatus
(the static version will be removed in version 2.0 of the Geolocator plugin).
1.6.3 #
- Added feature to check the availability of Google Play services on the device (using the
checkGooglePlayServicesAvailability
method). This will allow developers to implement a more user friendly experience regarding the usage of Google Play services (for more information see the article Set Up Google Play Services); - Fixed the error
'List<dynamic>' is not a subtype of type 'Future<dynamic>'
on Flutter 0.6.2 and higher (thanks @fawadkhanucp for reporting the issue and solution); - Fixed an error when calling the
getCurrentPosition
,getPositionStream
,placemarkFromAddress
andplacemarkFromCoordinates
from an Android background service (thanks @sestegra for reporting the issue and creating a pull-request).
1.6.2 #
- Hot fix to solve cast exception
1.6.1 #
- Fixed a bug which caused stationary location updates not to be streamed when using the new
FusedLocationProviderClient
on Android (thanks @audkar for the PR).
1.6.0 #
- Use the Location Services (through the
FusedLocationProviderClient
) on Android if available, otherwise fallback to theLocationManager
class; - Make sure that on Android the last know location is returned immediately on the stream when requesting location updates through the
getPositionStream
method; - Updated documentation on adding location permissions on Android.
1.5.0 #
- It is now possible to check the location permissions using the
checkGeolocationStatus
method [ISSUE #51]. - Improved the example App [ISSUE #54]
- Solved a bug on Android causing a memory leak when you stop listening to the position stream.
- *breaking- Solved a bug on Android where permissions could be requested more then once simultaneously [ISSUE #58]
- Solved a bug on Android where requesting permissions twice would cause the App to crash [ISSUE #61]
Important:
To be able to correctly fix issue #58 we had to change the
getPositionStream
method into aasync
method. This means the signature of the method has been changed from:
Stream<Position> getPositionStream([LocationOptions locationOptions = const LocationOptions()])
to
Future<Stream<Position>> getPositionStream([LocationOptions locationOptions = const LocationOptions()])
.Meaning as a developer you'll now have to
await
the result of the method to get access to the actual stream.
1.4.0 #
- Added feature to query the last known location that is stored on the device using the
getLastKnownLocation
method; - *breaking- Renamed the
getPosition
togetCurrentPosition
; - Fixed bug where calling
getCurrentPosition
on Android resulted in returning the last known location; - *breaking- Renamed methods
toPlacemark
andfromPlacemark
respectively to the, more meaningful names,placemarkFromAddress
andplacemarkFromCoordinates
;
1.3.1 #
- Added support for iOS
kCLLocationAccurayBestForNavigation
(defaults tobest
when on Android).
1.3.0 #
- Added the option to check the distance between two geocoordinates (using the
distanceBetween
method).
1.2.2 #
- Make sure that an Android App using the plugin is informed when the platform stops transmitting location updates.
1.2.1 #
- Added feature to throttle the amount of locations updates based on a supplied distance filter.
Important:
This introduces a breaking change since the signature of the
getPositionStream
has changed fromgetPositionStream(LocationAccuracy accuracy)
togetPositionStream(LocationOptions locationOptions)
.
- Made some small changes to ensure the plugin no longer is depending on JAVA 8, meaning the plugin will run using the default Android configuration.
1.2.0 #
- Added support to translate an address into geocoordinates and vice versa (a.k.a. Geocoding). See the README.md file for more information.
1.1.2 #
- Fixed reported formatting issues
1.1.1 #
- Fixed a warning generated by xCode when compiling the example project (see issue #28)
- Fixed some warnings generated by Dart static code analyser, improving code quality
1.1.0 #
- Introduced the option to supply a desired accuracy.
**Important:*-
This introduces a breaking change, the
getPosition
andonPositionChanged
properties have been replaced by methods (getPosition([LocationAccuracy desiredAccuracy = LocationAccuracy.Best])
andgetPositionStream([LocationAccuracy desiredAccuracy = LocationAccuracy.Best])
respectively) accepting a parameter to indicate the desired accuracy.
- Updated the Android part to make use of the LocationManager instead of the FusedLocationProviderClient
- Improved support for handling position requests that happen in rapid succession.
