Timing out on unsubscribed GPS call - background geolocation & geolocation - ionic

@ajammon wrote:

I’m able to retrieve GPS - lat and long. The issue is, the device is trying to get a GPS reading every second from ionic native geolocation. I’m using both geolocation and background geolocation. The issue is my watch position on the geolocation is running until I unsubscribe (which makes sense). Maybe this is trivial and I’m over thinking but I should be able to unsubscribe right after I subscribe to watch position and retrieve that data correct? Wrong. I’m not able to even read a console.log message inside of the subscription if that’s the case. I’m unsubscribing from watch in the stop tracking but I’m still getting a console message of the GPS data every second until stop tracking is hit, which is every 30 seconds. thanks

map.ts

    startTracking() {

        console.log('started tracking')
        const config: BackgroundGeolocationConfig = {
          desiredAccuracy: 10,
          stationaryRadius: 20,
          distanceFilter: 30,
          debug: false, //  enable this hear sounds for background-geolocation life-cycle.
          stopOnTerminate: false
      };

      this.backgroundGeolocation.configure(config)
      .subscribe((location: BackgroundGeolocationResponse) => {

      console.log('location', location, location.bearing, location.speed, location.longitude);

      this.zone.run(() => {
        this.lat = location.latitude
        this.lng = location.longitude
        this.bearing = location.bearing
        this.speed = location.speed
        this.accuracy = location.accuracy
        this.timestamp = location.time
      })


      this.backgroundGeolocation.finish(); // FOR IOS ONLY

      });

    //foreground tracking

      let options: GeolocationOptions = {
        timeout: 300000,
        enableHighAccuracy: true
      };

      this.watch = this.geolocation.watchPosition(options).filter((p: any) => p.code === undefined).subscribe((position: Geoposition) => {

         console.log(position);

         // Run update inside of Angular's zone
         this.zone.run(() => {
           this.lat = position.coords.latitude;
           this.lng = position.coords.longitude;
           this.speed = position.coords.speed;
           this.accuracy = position.coords.accuracy
         });

         console.log(this.lat, this.lng , 'this is the lat lng')
       });

      this.backgroundGeolocation.start();
      }

    getGPSData(){

    this.gpsunsub = this.service.sendGPS(GPSobjectshere).subscribe(result => {

              }

            }


    }

    stopTracking() {
      this.backgroundGeolocation.stop();
      console.log('stopped tracking')
      this.watch.unsubscribe();
      this.getGPSData()
      this.gpsunsub.unsubscribe()
     }

app.component.ts

    constructor(){
     this.sendGPSStart()
     this.interval()
    }

    sendGPSStart(){
        this.locationTracker.startTracking();
      }

      sendGPSStop(){
        this.locationTracker.stopTracking();
    }

    interval(){
    setInterval(() => {

              this.sendGPSStop()
        }, '30000')

    }
