## Description

POST your device location to any REST endpoint on significant location changes. Custom fields, retry queue, and full background support included.

LocHook is a background location utility that automatically sends your device's location to a REST endpoint of 
  your choice whenever a significant location change is detected.                                                
                                                                                                                 
  Configure your endpoint URL, enable tracking, and LocHook handles the rest — capturing coordinates, altitude,  
  speed, accuracy, and reverse-geocoded city, region, and country data, then POSTing it all as a structured JSON 
  payload.                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                 
  Key features:                                                                                                  

  - Background location tracking triggered by significant location changes                                       
  - Sends location to any HTTP or HTTPS endpoint you configure
  - Payload includes timestamp, latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, accuracy, city, state/province, and country
  - Add unlimited custom static key/value fields to every payload                                                
  - Automatic retry queue — failed transmissions are stored and retried until successful                         
  - Manual "Send Now" button to force an immediate location capture and transmission                             
  - Survives device reboots — tracking resumes automatically if it was enabled                                   
                                                                                                                 
  Built for developers, home automation enthusiasts, and anyone who needs reliable location webhooks without a   
  proprietary platform.
