To add the easy_geofencing to your flutter application read the install instructions. Below are some Android
and iOS specifics that are required for the easy_geofencing to work correctly.

FOR ANDROID
AndroidX

The easy_geofencing plugin requires the AndroidX version of the Android Support Libraries. This means you
need to make sure your Android project supports AndroidX. Detailed instructions can be found here.

The TL;DR version is:

1. Add the following to your "gradle.properties" file:

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

2. Make sure you set the compileSdkVersion in your "android/app/build.gradle" file to 30:

android {
compileSdkVersion 30

...
}

3. Make sure you replace all the android. dependencies to their AndroidX counterparts (a full list can be
found here: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate).

Permissions

On Android you'll need to add either the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION


permission to your Android Manifest. To do so open the AndroidManifest.xml file (located under android/app/
src/main) and add one of the following two lines as direct children of the <manifest> tag (when you
configure both permissions the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION will be used):

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />


<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

Starting from Android 10 you need to add the ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission (next to the

ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission) if you want to continue receiving


updates even when your App is running in the background (note that the easy_geofencing plugin doesn't
support receiving an processing geofence status updates while running in the background):

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION" />

FOR IOS
On iOS you'll need to add the following entries to your Info.plist file (located under ios/Runner) in order to
access the device's location. Simply open your Info.plist file and add the following:

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to location when open.</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to location when in the background.</string>

If you would like to receive updates when your App is in the background, you'll also need to add the
Background Modes capability to your XCode project (Project > Signing and Capabilities > "+ Capability"
button) and select Location Updates. Be careful with this, you will need to explain in detail to Apple why your
App needs this when submitting your App to the AppStore. If Apple isn't satisfied with the explanation your
App will be rejected.

API
START EASY GEOFENCING SERVICES

At first you need to start the geofence service and for that you need to pass the following arguments:

• pointedLatitude: the latitude of the geofence area center


• pointedLongitude: the longitude of the geofence area center
• radiusInMeter: the radius of the geofence area in meters
• eventPeriodInSeconds: geofence status stream period in seconds

import 'package:easy_geofencing/easy_geofencing.dart';

EasyGeofencing.startGeofenceService(
pointedLatitude: "34.2165157",
pointedLongitude: "71.9437819",
radiusMeter: "250.0",
eventPeriodInSeconds: 5

);

GET GEOFENCE STATUS STREAMS

To get the stream geofence Status updates on location changes, you need to subscribe
getGeofenceStream to listen geofence status streams on current location updates.

import 'package:easy_geofencing/easy_geofencing.dart';

StreamSubscription<GeofenceStatus> geofenceStatusStream =
EasyGeofencing.getGeofenceStream().listen(
(GeofenceStatus status) {
print(status.toString());
});

Stop Geofence Service

To stop geofence service you need to specify this:

import 'package:easy_geofencing/easy_geofencing.dart';

EasyGeofencing.stopGeofenceService();

Also, stop GeofenceStatus stream subscription listener which is geofenceStatusStream in our case

geofenceStatusStream.cancel();
