Reading GPS Location with expo-location

expo-location provides an API to read the device's geographic position using GPS, Wi-Fi triangulation, and cell tower data. It works on both iOS and Android without writing native code. You can get a one-time position fix, watch the location as the user moves, or geocode an address to coordinates and vice versa.

Use the Expo install command to get the SDK-compatible version of expo-location. In managed Expo projects, the native module is linked automatically. For bare React Native projects, you must also run pod install on iOS and update AndroidManifest.xml with the location permission declarations.
