Android Question MyLocation

[gif]

Hello,
I took the 'MyLocation' example and added the GPS data recording in a file (the rest of the original code is not modified); this works well as long as the application remains in the foreground.
The application does not restart despite
StartServiceAt(Me, DateTime.Now + 30 * DateTime.TicksPerMinute, True)
and whether the value is 30 minutes or much less.
How to restart the application or prevent it from stopping (like a GPS application like google map, here...)?
Thanks for your help.

Thanks, but it doesn't work anymore when the application is no longer in the foreground.

It also works with Android 9.

Some specific devices are more restrictive and will not let your app run in the background. In some cases you can whitelist the app in the device settings. In other cases you can't.
