External Integrations

Analysis Date: 2026-02-09

APIs & External Services

Location Services:

  • Geolocator API (geolocator 14.0.2)
    • What it's used for: Real-time GPS positioning, speed, heading, and location tracking
    • SDK/Client: package:geolocator (Dart wrapper around native location APIs)
    • Implementation: lib/gps_service.dart provides stream-based position updates
    • Native integration: Android (geolocator_android 5.0.2), iOS (geolocator_apple 2.3.13), Linux, Web, Windows
    • Stream Configuration: LocationSettings with LocationAccuracy.bestForNavigation and distanceFilter: 0 for continuous GPS updates

System Overlay:

  • Flutter Overlay Window (flutter_overlay_window 0.5.0)
    • What it's used for: Creates floating window overlay for displaying GPS speed while app is in background
    • Implementation: lib/main.dart with overlayMain() entry point
    • Service: Android service flutter.overlay.window.flutter_overlay_window.OverlayService
    • Requires: SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission and Android API 29+

App Launcher:

  • bg_launcher 0.1.0
    • What it's used for: Brings main app to foreground from background or overlay state
    • Implementation: Used in lib/main.dart for overlay interaction handling

Data Storage

Databases:

  • None detected - Application uses client-side state only

File Storage:

  • SharedPreferences (Android native, not explicitly in pubspec.yaml but referenced in backup version history)
    • Location: Android internal app data directory
    • Used for: Persisting user settings (speed units, theme preferences)
    • Implementation: Handled at runtime through Provider/State management
    • Note: Direct SharedPreferences not found in current active code, settings managed through in-app state

Caching:

  • In-memory state management via Dart
    • GPS data cached in lib/services/gps_data_manager.dart ProcessedGpsData class
    • Heading caching in lib/gps_service.dart with _lastValidHeading static variable

Authentication & Identity

Auth Provider:

  • None - Application is fully offline and requires no user authentication
  • Permissions are handled via OS-level runtime permission requests
  • Implementation: lib/gps_service.dart with requestPermissions() using permission_handler

Permission Management:

  • permission_handler 12.0.1
    • Location permission request: Permission.locationWhenInUse.request()
    • Platforms: Android (13.0.1), iOS (9.4.7), Windows (0.2.1), HTML (0.1.3+5)

Monitoring & Observability

Error Tracking:

  • None detected - No external error tracking service integrated

Logs:

  • Console logging via Dart's print() function
    • Debug mode conditional logging: if (kDebugMode) check in customDebugPrint() function
    • Logging in: lib/main.dart, lib/services/gps_data_manager.dart
    • Format: Prefixed messages with emoji indicators (e.g., '[Overlay] 🚀', '[GpsDataManager] ⚠️')

CI/CD & Deployment

Hosting:

  • Not configured - Deployment is manual
  • Target: Google Play Store (intended) or sideload APK distribution
  • Build output: Flutter generates APK files via flutter build apk

CI Pipeline:

  • None detected - No GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or other CI/CD configuration present
  • Manual build process:
    • flutter run for development
    • flutter build apk for release builds
    • Signing configured in Gradle (currently uses debug keys for release, see TODO in android/app/build.gradle.kts)

Environment Configuration

Required env vars:

  • None - Application requires no environment variables
  • All configuration is hardcoded or managed through app state at runtime

Secrets location:

  • None - No API keys, tokens, or secrets integrated
  • Android signing keys: Located in Android default keystore (debug only currently)

Webhooks & Callbacks

Incoming:

  • None - Application is fully self-contained with no webhook endpoints

Outgoing:

  • None - No external API calls or webhook notifications
  • All data remains local to device

Native Platform Integrations

Android:

  • Geolocator Android Plugin (geolocator_android 5.0.2) - FusedLocationProviderClient integration
  • Permission Handler Android (permission_handler_android 13.0.1) - Runtime permission requests
  • Flutter Overlay Window - System alert window overlay
  • Waklock Plus Android integration - CPU/screen wake lock via WakeLock API
  • Configured permissions in AndroidManifest.xml:
    • android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
    • android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
    • android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION
    • android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW
    • android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE
    • android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SPECIAL_USE
    • android.permission.WAKE_LOCK
    • android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS

iOS:

  • Geolocator Apple Plugin (geolocator_apple 2.3.13) - CoreLocation integration
  • Permission Handler Apple (permission_handler_apple 9.4.7) - iOS runtime permission handling
  • Wakelock Plus (requires iOS implementation)
  • Note: iOS functionality is included but untested

Data Flow & Synchronization

GPS Data Flow:

  1. Hardware GPS → geolocator.getPositionStream() streams Position objects
  2. Position objects captured in lib/services/gps_data_manager.dart
  3. Processed into ProcessedGpsData with speed, heading, and display strings
  4. Broadcast via StreamController<ProcessedGpsData> for UI consumption
  5. Optional: Sent to overlay window via flutter_overlay_window messaging

Settings Synchronization:

  • Current unit (km/h, mph, knots) synchronized between main app and overlay
  • Current theme synchronized between main app and overlay
  • Synchronization method: Direct state transmission (not persistent between app restarts)

External Dependencies Summary

Direct Dependencies: 6 packages

  • geolocator 14.0.2
  • permission_handler 12.0.1
  • wakelock_plus 1.3.2 (recently updated to 1.3.2)

  • bg_launcher 0.1.0
  • flutter (SDK)

Dev Dependencies: 3 packages

  • flutter_test (SDK)

  • No Firebase, Supabase, AWS, or other backend services
  • No REST API integrations
  • No database synchronization
  • No analytics or tracking services
  • No third-party payment or subscription services
