LICENSE VALIDATION FAILURE - Token must have 3 segments (v9, Capacitor 8, iOS)

Using @transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation v9.0.1 with Capacitor 8.

Getting "TSLocationManager (com.gettradeready.app) LICENSE VALIDATION FAILURE - Token must have 3 segments" on iOS.

License generated from customer dashboard for bundle ID: com.gettradeready.app
Order #15824

Key format received from dashboard starts with "eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSI..." (JWT format)

Tried passing via:

1. licenseKey in ready() config
2. TSLocationManagerLicenseKey in Info.plist

Same error both ways. Is the JWT format correct for v9?
What is the exact method to pass the license key on iOS for v9.0.1?

It seems I forgot to update the iOS Setup Guide.

Configure Your License

Note

If you've not purchased a license, ignore this step — the plugin is fully functional in DEBUG builds so you can try before you buy.

In your Info.plist, add the following key:

Key	Type	Value
TSLocationManagerLicense	String	<PASTE YOUR LICENSE KEY HERE>

Also seeing Reexports.swift compile errors on Xcode 16.3 and 16.4 — @_exported import failing. Currently forced to use Xcode 26.2 beta to build. Is there a fix coming or a recommended workaround?

Working on fix right now. It will be released soon.
