I'm using flutter_beacon for detecting iBeacons in one of my flutter project. Its working fine in foreground and in background for android version below 8. But its not detecting beacons in background for android version 8 and above.


As per background location limits: Android 8.0 (API level 26) limits how frequently background apps can retrieve the user's current location. Apps can receive location updates only a few times each hour.


I've also reported an issue to Github with the example code here


Is there any extra code I have to write in order to make android device with version 8+ be able to detect beacons in background ?

Hello,

I'm looking weeks to find a simple project that could detecting my real beacon device.  I tried all availables packages but i didn't figure out how to make it work.

Can you provide me please a source code ?

Thank you very much!
