Here is my code

    private var longitude = ""
    private var latitude = ""

 val lm = activity?.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE) as LocationManager?
        if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(
                requireActivity(),
                Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
            ) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(
                requireActivity(),
                Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
            ) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
        ) {

        }
        val location = lm!!.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)
        longitude = location!!.longitude.toString()
        latitude = location.latitude.toString()

So location is null, How can I get my lat et long correctly in Kotlin?

    GPS needs time to warm up doesn't it. Have you tried calling it again later? What if there is no last known location, that sounds like a null. – Blundell Apr 12 '22 at 21:14
  • Yeah it's my fist time. But How can I get my location then if not by getLastKnownLocation? I've try getCurrentLocation but I don't know wich parameter to pass... – mathdx Apr 12 '22 at 21:26
  • This question has been asked about a million times and there are tons of answers/suggestions/approaches. There are also hundreds of tutorials/howtos/examples on the Interwebs. Please spend a bit of time searching before you post a question like this. – David Wasser Apr 12 '22 at 21:58
  • Also, the documentation of `getLastKnownLocation()` clearly states that it can return `null` and that it will only return a cached location value (it will not activate sensors like GPS). See https://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationManager#getLastKnownLocation(java.lang.String) – David Wasser Apr 12 '22 at 22:00
