I fixed it without edit files in node_modules folder.

Refer to @react-native-community/geolocation

If you need to have geolocation API aligned with the browser (cross-platform apps), or want to support backward compatibility, please consider adding following lines at the root level, for example at the top of your App.js file (only for react native):
navigator.geolocation = require('@react-native-community/geolocation');
