Geolocation

You need to include the NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription key in Info.plist to enable geolocation. Geolocation is enabled by default when you create a project with react-native init.

Geolocation follows the MDN specification: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Geolocation
