About this app

Location Service Extension

The App Inventor extension presented in this example app is able to run in the background while your app is closed and stores location data (latitude, longitude and optionally altitude, accuracy, speed, current address and provider) in TinyDB aka Shared Preferences.

Also a background web functionality is available which can be used to send the location data to a web service of your choice using a POST request. This could be used for example to store the location data in a MySQL database or to send an email after a location change was detected while the app is not running.

A notifier will be displayed while the location service is running in the background.

In the example app you have the following 2 options:

1) you can can select, if you want your location be transferred to my Test MySQL database. Each time you start the service, a random user id will be generated and transferred to the Test database including your location information (latitude, longitude and optionally current address). You can see the latest location of the last 5 user ids who used the example app on my webpage at https://puravidaapps.com/locationservice.php.

2) you can select, if your location should be sent by email. Please enter your email address for the location (latitude, longitude and optionally current address) to be sent to your email address.
