Implements robust geolocation, GPS tracking, and location permission handling for .NET MAUI applications.
This skill provides comprehensive guidance for integrating geolocation features into .NET MAUI apps using the Microsoft.Maui.Devices.Sensors namespace. It assists developers in implementing one-shot or continuous location tracking while managing complex platform-specific nuances like Android background permissions, iOS approximate location settings, and mock-location detection. By emphasizing battery optimization through accuracy levels and defensive coding with CancellationTokens, it ensures location-aware features are both reliable and performant across Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows.
