Overview
My location layer should be disabled when the
PlacePickerActivityis no longer visible on the screen (i.e. paused or finished).This resolves two issues:
When the place picker activity was finished location services would not be properly shutdown and the app would leak a service connection to the Lost fused location service (Place picker activity leaks Lost service connection after place is selected #301).
This prevents location services from running hot when the place picker activity is in the background. Location updates are only needed when the place picker is visible on the screen and the user is in the process of selecting a place.
