    The "cordova-background-geolocation-services" plugin enables background geolocation in your Cordova project for Android and iOS platforms. It provides constant location updates in the background until you manually stop it. Additionally, the plugin includes an activity detection API to determine the user's current activity. The latest version includes improvements such as Swift conversion and fixes for running in the foreground on iOS. The plugin utilizes Fused Location API and Activity Recognition API for Android and a timer-based approach with the CoreMotion library for iOS. Installation instructions and usage examples are provided. Note that the plugin currently requires a maintainer.
