Getting GPS coordinates without GeolocatorPlugin

mremin

Hi all!
Is there a way to get GPS coordinates without GeolocatorPlugin?
Thanks in advance.

No. You need a platform-level implementation at some point. On Android you have to get the Listener for the location, monitor it, subscribe to its changes... then raise your own events to listen for at the shared code level etc. Then write your own for iOS. Then write your own for UWP.

Or you can use the implementation that someone with more experience already wrote for you.

By writing your own version of the Geolocator plugin.

Why you don't use GeolocatorPlugin.
If you create your own platform implement it's the same like you create GeolocatorPlugin again!

I tried to use GeolocatorPlugin, but it is incompatible with last version of Xamarin.Forms, i got a lot or errors during app building.
