expo-task-manager background task doesn’t run in the background on iOS
This is one of my first posts ever. When I’m stuck I usually just hit my head against a wall, but today I’m asking for help. I’ve got a ReactNative app built using Expo which does some realtime location monitoring. Which works when the component is active on the screen, but when the app goes into the background, it stops functioning. I’ve attempted to implement a background task using expo-task-manager, but for the life of me I can’t seem to get it to work. I’ve implemented it to use haptics to notify me that it’s functioning properly while testing in the field, and while it seems to work ok on the simulator (I get the console.log at least), the real device only buzzes when the component is active and on screen. I am able to see the blue indicator when the app is not active, but no haptics.
