Zeph Davies commented on CB-9474:
---------------------------------
+1 to this wish.
Does the fused location controller provide the option to not use GPS, though?

> Key: CB-9474
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9474
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugin Geolocation
> Reporter: Werner Beroux
>
> On Android, WebView/Chrome uses
> [LocationManager|https://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationManager.html]
> to provide location updates (see [Chromium
> LocationProviderFactory.java|https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/master/content/public/android/java/src/org/chromium/content/browser/LocationProviderFactory.java]).
> This is less reliable and uses more battery than the
> [FusedLocationProviderApi|https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/FusedLocationProviderApi].
> It would be good to make use of FusedLocationProviderApi when available (that
> is when Google Play Services are installed).
