FEATURE REQUEST

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
On Android 14 if the user removes the location or notification permissions whilst the plugin is running, the app exits immediately. I guess it is crashing due to some unhandled exception.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be really nice if the plugin could handle this scenario more gracefully. It would be good if the tracking just stopped without causing the app to exit. I am using another plugin to monitor the permissions that the user has granted and I would like to use this to capture when the user disabled the location or notification permission and then log that in the app. But because the app just exits I am unable to accomplish this aim.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried looking at the debug logs but could not find any exceptions being raised when the app exits. Otherwise I would have liked to suggest a solution for the problem.

Additional context
None

I would advise to run the scenario in a simulator or app in debug mode and look at the logcat to see where the exception is raised.
Feel free to submit a PR if you are interested in solving this.

Thanks I will have a go at that.

I was able to capture the exception from logcat:

I am not a native app developer, so if anyone has any tips on where I need to look or how to try and prevent the exception from crashing the app that would be great.

I'm thinking maybe we can put this line in a try/catch but I'm not sure of any negative implications of doing that.

You should be able to create a fork, update the code and use it using npm install<your-repo.git>.
If this fixes the issue we can discuss if this is the right approach. I would also recommend chatting with Gimini or an equivalent GenAI tool to see what should be done in similar cases...

Catch exceptions raised when starting foreground service on Android
096d9a2 
HaylLtd#199

If an exception is raised when starting the foreground service this causes the app to crash.

One cause of exceptions can be if the user revokes the location or notification permissions whilst the foreground service is running.

I tried to make this change to prevent the exception but it didn't work. Here is the stacktrace after the change:

I have very little experience with native code, so I don't know what to try next.
