Description

Describe the bug
When the app is downloaded and launched for the first time, it fails to automatically fetch the user's current location. This leads to incorrect or missing location-based services (such as nearby restaurants or delivery zones). The user is forced to manually set their location, which disrupts the expected experience.

Steps to Reproduce:

Download and install the app on a device.
Launch the app for the first time.
Observe that the app does not automatically detect or request the user's location.
Check that location-based features are not functioning properly.
Expected behavior
On the first launch, the app should prompt the user for location permission and then automatically fetch the current location to enable location-based functionality.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

Device: [e.g. Infinix HOT 50]
OS: [e.g. Android]
Browser [e.g. Application]
Version [e.g. Latest]

Research direction

No files, tests, devices, or implementation entry points are mentioned. Start by locating the first-launch location-permission and current-location flow in the React Native application, then verify the behavior on a fresh install. Done means the app requests permission and fetches the current location so location-based features work.
