.NET MAUI Geolocation

Critical: Always Pass a CancellationToken

GetLocationAsync can hang indefinitely if GPS is off, the device is indoors, or permissions are in a pending state. Always set a timeout.

// ❌ Hangs forever if no GPS fix is available
var location = await Geolocation.Default.GetLocationAsync(
    new GeolocationRequest(GeolocationAccuracy.High));

// ✅ Times out after 30 seconds
using var cts = new CancellationTokenSource(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30));
var location = await Geolocation.Default.GetLocationAsync(
    new GeolocationRequest(GeolocationAccuracy.High), cts.Token);
