How does Background App Refresh work on iOS

I am writing an app that monitors a users location then fires a call to open a Shortcut when they pass within a set distance of a programmed location. I have it working when the Thunkable app is displayed, but if you close the phone or switch apps, it stops updating the location and checking distance. I have checked my phone’s settings and Thunkable, and Shortcuts are set to have background app refresh enabled. Is there a setting in Thunkable that I am missing? or is this just not going to work?

Thunkable does not support background service.
You can try to run your code When opening the app.
