Android Location APIs are used in a wide variety of apps for different purposes such as finding user location, notifying when a user has left a general area (Geofencing), and help interpret user activity (walking, running, driving, etc).
However, Android Location APIs are not the only means of acquiring user location. The following will give examples of how to use Android’s LocationManager
and other common location libraries.
For building Location aware apps in Android, there are two paths:
[LocationManager](<https://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationManager.html>)
[FusedLocationProviderApi](<https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/FusedLocationProviderApi>)
, which is part of Google Play ServicesPros
