Android – react native maps loading location
I'm trying to create an application using the react native maps module. I can get the device location through navigator.location.watchposition. I also use the built-in map in showuserlocation property. How to turn the map to the user location when loading. I don't see the whole world or the hard coded initial location
Edit: This is my react native map element. This field is set to the hard coded initial position. I want to change it so that it is always loaded in the user's position
<View style={styles.container}>
<MapView
style={styles.map}
region={this.state.initialPosition}
showsMyLocationButton={true}
loadingEnabled={true}
onRegionChange={(region)=> this.setState({ initialPosition:region })}
onLongPress={this.mapOnPress}
showsUserLocation={true}
>
The location I use in the application starts from here, but it loads late, usually more than 20 seconds, so I want to skip this 20 seconds and load it to the user location immediately
this.watchID= navigator.geolocation.watchPosition((position)=>{
var lastRegion ={
latitude: lat,
longitude: lon,
longitudeDelta: LON_D,
latitudeDelta: LAT_D
}
this.setState({initialPosition:lastRegion})},(error)=>alert(error),{enableHighAccuracy:true,timeout:20,maximumAge:10})
Is there any solution? Thank you for your help:)

You can try this. The timeout unit is Ms. tested in RN: 44,
class Map extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
permissionState: false,
latitude: null,
longitude: null,
error: null,
};
}
componentDidMount() {
Platform.OS === 'android' && Platform.Version >= 23 ? this.requestMapPermission() : this.requestMap()
}
async requestMapPermission() {
try {
const granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request(
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
console.log('Granted');
this.watchId = navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(
(position) => {
console.log('Position is watched');
this.setState({
permissionState: true,
latitude: position.coords.latitude,
longitude: position.coords.longitude,
error: null,
});
},
(error) => this.setState({error: error.message}),
{enableHighAccuracy: false, timeout: 20000, maximumAge: 1000},
);
} else {
console.log('not Granted');
this.setState({
permissionState: false,
});
}
} catch (err) {
console.warn(err)
}
}
requestMap() {
this.watchId = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(
(position) => {
this.setState({
permissionState: true,
latitude: position.coords.latitude,
longitude: position.coords.longitude,
error: null,
});
},
(error) => this.setState({error: error.message, permissionState: false,}),
{enableHighAccuracy: false, timeout: 20000, maximumAge: 1000},
);
}
componentWillUnmount() {
navigator.geolocation.clearWatch(this.watchID);
}
render() {
var {height, width} = Dimensions.get('window');
return (
<View style={{height: 150, justifyContent: 'center'}}>
{
this.state.permissionState === true ?
<MapView
minZoomLevel={16}
style={{height: 150, marginBottom: 5, marginTop: 5}}
region={{

<MapView.Marker
