Is it possible to keep an app running for long periods of time in the background?
I'm making a running app that tracks the users when they're running. For this to work I have to be able to keep the app running in the background for the entire run, which in some cases can be over an hour long.I've managed to keep tracking in the background for shorter periods of time using Background Locator, however, the app shuts down at what seems to be unpredictable times. One time it lasted for over 50 minutes, another only 13 minutes.For now, I'm only running on Android. Could this be some limitation of the Android operating system? If so, is there something I can do about this to keep the app running in the background for long periods of time?

State of flutter and core android functions
So I am learning flutter and there was this one assignment in which we were supposed to make an app that will get the current device location from god and send that data to an API and get weather info back (a weather app), but I had (having) a really hard time to work with the location.There are two packages the location and geolocator but both of those are very buggy. I have seen more people complaining about them. They just don't want to work properly.So why am I writing this rant? I am writing this to ask you the community about what do you think is gonna happen to flutter. In my opinion, flutter needs a way to directly contact the machine instead of using a package written by someone else in native code i.e. making flutter the native language. Or having packages made and maintained by the flutter team so we don't have to deal with the old outdated packages.Google is working on Fuchsia but that's no one knows when it'll come and what will happen to it.Are packages even important?So I have like 200 apps on my phone and there are three types of apps:GamesApps that get their data from the internet.Apps that use core Android function & Photo editorsThe first 2 types don't really need core Android feature (games can be tackled with unity and internet services can use firebase) but type 3 does BUT the percentage of type 3s are so low that they don't even matter.So what's gonna happen; is Google gonna assume that people who wanna use core Android Mobile functions are smart enough to code Java or are they gonna bring the java power to dart and flutter.Note: Whenever I use the word Android I am also talking about IOS but we know apple isn't gonna let anyone into there devices.

What is the most efficient state management for dealing with restapi with Flutter?
Hello, I'm building my first app that connects to a restApi(NodeJS + MongoDB).I'm able to do basic things like retrieve data, post data, login, signup.However, I need to persist data efficiently when navigating through pages : such as obtaining user's profile data, viewing a specific product and adding stuff to shopping cart.Does anyone have any good source material/repos/videos I can read that deal with how to manage state in such an app? So far all I've seen are tutorials using Firebase none dealing with restApis.

Is the pub.dev 'redesign' slower for anyone else?
Not sure why the design was changed, but I'm noticing that switching between tabs is considerably slower than it was previously? Anyone noticing it or is it just me.

Open Source Student Information App
Hey everyone, during my first semester as a CS Student I've built a small application to show me my timetable as well as information about what's available to eat. I have now refactored and open sourced the application. Check it out at https://github.com/devnico/th_rosenheim. A star would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)
