Describe the problem
I have been playing around with Android's geofence API for about 2 years. I notice a problem that because of battery saving modes in some manufacturers, The geofence intent never got triggered. Geofences are dependent on various aspects like if your app never opened for a day , you intent may get killed by OS.

• Add different regions
• Put your phone into Doze mode by using adb

Versions

Describe the problem
On Android 12, it seems that in HuntMainActivity, the PendingIntent requires a mutability flag and that this flag needs to be PendingIntent.FLAG_MUTABLE. This isn't quite obvious unless you try it. It would be great if the codelab can be updated for this.
