Description

It looks like the function converting between the js dictionary and the RNCGeolocationConfiguration struct does not set enableBackgroundLocationUpdates:

react-native-geolocation/ios/RNCGeolocation.mm

Lines 61 to 69 in 7bd62fd

	+ (RNCGeolocationConfiguration)RNCGeolocationConfiguration:(id)json
	{
	NSDictionary<NSString *, id> *options = [RCTConvert NSDictionary:json];
	return (RNCGeolocationConfiguration) {
	.skipPermissionRequests = [RCTConvert BOOL:options[@"skipPermissionRequests"]],
	.authorizationLevel = [RCTConvert RNCGeolocationAuthorizationLevel:options[@"authorizationLevel"]]
	};
	}

I notice this because enableBackgroundLocationUpdates is never called with skipPermissionRequests set to true because _locationConfiguration.enableBackgroundLocationUpdates is always set to false

react-native-geolocation/ios/RNCGeolocation.mm

Lines 176 to 180 in 7bd62fd

	if (!_locationConfiguration.skipPermissionRequests) {
	[self requestAuthorization:nil error:nil];
	} else if (_locationConfiguration.enableBackgroundLocationUpdates) {
	[self enableBackgroundLocationUpdates];
	}

Experiencing this as well.

Looks like just need to add something like this:
.enableBackgroundLocationUpdates = [RCTConvert BOOL:options[@"enableBackgroundLocationUpdates"]]
