How to read this iOS stacktrace?

I usually develop in higher level languages like Javascript and Python , so I am not that experienced when it comes to reading lower level stack traces. I am building an iOS app with React Native and my app sometimes unexpectedly crashes. Reading the crash log this is what I get:

How/where do I begin reading thsi crash log? I believe it has something to do with mach_msg_trap but I haven't been able to find anything about it. For some context, my app is an app which tracks the users Geolocation with background geolocation tracking. I am unable to figure out what causes the crash.

Have you add Privacy - Location in info.plist?

Something like that.

<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>Why you need track location?</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Why you need track location?</string>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Why you need track location?</string>

And I see you work with background geolocation tracking. Have you turn on Background Modes in Capabilities?

If not just add Privacy turn on Background Modes and try again.

See TN2141: Understanding and Analyzing Application Crash Reports, which says:

The exception code 0x8badf00d indicates that an application has been terminated by iOS because a watchdog timeout occurred. The application took too long to launch, terminate, or respond to system events. ... Whatever operation is on Thread 0 needs to be moved to a background thread, or processed differently, so that it does not block the main thread.

Are you doing anything that could be blocking the main thread for any prolonged period of time?
