do not call onLocationChanged if not moved more than 10 meters

Question

Is there a way to restrict the call to onLocationChanged if user has not moved 10 meters or more.

I am using google map with map fragment.

Answer 1

Use Google fuesed location api for location updates.

https://github.com/googlesamples/android-play-location/blob/master/LocationUpdates/app/src/main/java/com/google/android/gms/location/sample/locationupdates/MainActivity.java

And for distance use LocationRequest.setSmallestDisplacement() method. For that - https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/LocationRequest.html#public-methods

Answer 2

Initialize location manager with parameter minimum distance to 10 and minimum time to 0 .
