enableLocationEvents(options and background

According to documentation

enableLocationEvents

Using this API requires enabling the Positioning Permission.

ONLY DEVICE APPS AND WIDGETS may use this API.

Note:W ill cause an app crash if called from AUDIO CONTENT PROVIDER, DATA FIELD, or WATCH FACE app.

And question,, what about a BACKGROUND? Can I use positioning in BACKGROUND attached to watch face? Yes, i know if cost a lot of energy...

No, you can't use it in a background for a watch face.

If you want thge current location, you use Activity.Info.currentLocation, but that could be null. If it's not null, you want to save it in Activity.Storage for the times it is null.
