flutter - How do I get location in a terminated app?

I have a recovery application. The logic of the app is that if the user is in trouble, he will click a button. Then his location will be sent to the service. I can send the location while the app is in the foreground and background, but what should I do if the user has to close the app at that moment, i.e. terminate it?

Apps like Workmanager run every 15 minutes, but that doesn't work for me, I need to get the location every 30 seconds even if the app is terminated. Is there a solution for this? Or can I prevent the app from terminating until the process is finished?

You need a background collection service. Usually both Android and iOS gives you the option to run background operations with the following options:

Run background operations when APP is closed
Run background operations when the device restarts

Beware that these background operations will be terminated after a certain time by the OS. This is the default behavior, but there are some workarounds you can try.

There is a package that will help you with these features, its the flutter-background-geolocation, made by Transistorsoftware, I use this package on my applications and it works pretty fine!

Just beware: you can't easily access the keychain while the APP is in the background, so keep that in mind when you're performing these operations
