native_location_tracker 0.3.1

A robust, native-first background location plugin for Flutter. Provides continuous tracking with native persistence and batch upload on both Android and iOS.

Changelog

0.3.1

• Wider compatibility: Relaxed the device_info_plus constraint to >=11.1.1 <14.0.0. The plugin only uses stable androidInfo.id / iosInfo.identifierForVendor APIs, so the previous ^13.1.0 pin needlessly forced consumers onto win32 ^6 and conflicted with apps still on the win32 5.x plugin ecosystem.

0.3.0

• Notification tap target: Added TrackingOptions.notificationTapUri (Android). When set, tapping the foreground notification fires an ACTION_VIEW intent for the given URI (scoped to the host app's package) instead of the default launcher intent. The plugin treats the URI as opaque — the host app composes it (e.g. a deep link to a tracking screen). Falls back to the launcher intent when null.

0.2.1

• pubspec.yaml Imporovement: Added correct git links, shortened description and updated packages to latest versions.

0.2.0

• Privacy Improvement: Removed ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION and RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permissions on Android.
• Compliance: Removed boot persistence and background restart workers (WorkManager) to simplify Play Store review and improve battery efficiency.
• Footprint: Removed Android WorkManager dependency, reducing plugin binary size.
• Documentation: Updated manifest requirements and setup guides in README.
