I solved the getCurrentPosition issue with the enableHighAccuracy, this is the workaround:

const getCurrentPosition = (onSuccess, onError, error3) => {
  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(
    (position) => onSuccess(position),
    (err) => {
      if (err.code === 3 && !error3) {
        getCurrentPosition(onSuccess, onError, true);
      } else {
        onError(err);
      }
    },
    { enableHighAccuracy: !error3, timeout: 5000 },
  );
};

getCurrentPosition(
  (position) => console.log('position', position),
  (error) => console.log('position error', error),
)
