Question on GeoLocator

[PranshulGG]

I'm using geolocator in my app, and I noticed it's pulling in GMS via com.google.android.gms:play-services-location. However, I saw that you're using the same dependency, but your build doesn’t seem to include GMS.

Did you configure something specific in your Gradle setup to exclude it? Or maybe override it in some way?

Any pointers would be really appreciated — thanks!

Hi! So you can add a dependency override in your pubspec.yaml that overrides the geolocator plugin for a gms free variant. I have a specific Foss branch just for building the IzzyOnDroid version without gms. You can just look at the pubspec.yaml in that branch. I originally used the one that Izzy linked me to when I had this problem, but then about a half a year ago that one stopped working so I switched to this which I got from the Rain weather app' source code. This one works but is a bit outdated (last updated 3 years ago).

Hope this helps!

Also congrats on the flutter rewrite. The app is really nice.
