How to access geolocation in mobile web browser

Question

I'm used html5 geolocation I made from the documentation

getLocation() {
   if (navigator.geolocation) {
      navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(this.showPosition, this.showError);
   } else {
       alert("geolocation not support");
   }
},

code working if i'm using chrome (toogle device toolbar) but in mobile browsers chrome(android) safari(ios) showing error

User did not share location

how to fix it ?

On phones geolocation enabled

UPD: Most likely this is due to the fact that there is no ssl certificate ?

Not all browsers have the same APIs built in. So you will have to figure out what browser a client is using and write different code depending on what APIs are included. You can figure out what browser they are using by checking the user agent.
