reportLocation does not report location anymore
See original GitHub issueI use owntracks to keep track of my android battery in home assistant when the phone is home, so I have an automation that every 5 minutes calls
_type: cmd
action: reportLocation
This used to work reliably, but since the update, that changed to the 4 different monitoring modes, when the phone is in “significant changes monitoring mode”, it will not respond to reportLocation anymore. Not even when the app is in foreground.
Here is a portion of my mqtt server. The location report was triggered manually from the phone. The request wasn’t changed, only thing that changed was the owntracks update.

@metabubble the fix is now available on Google Play in 2.1.1
You’re correct. Significant changes mode is the exactly like the old behaviour and can be tweaked with the same settings. Just the foreground/background things were removed. I’ve updated the changelog to make that more clear.
