navigator.health.query won't run in a separate thread in iOS

[marcarausch]

I have found that when I while running the navigator.health.queryAggregated I cannot do anything else on my app so I can't run the process in the background without affecting the user until the process is finished. Running the navigator.health.query works fine in the background without affecting the user functionality on the app. I have tried it with calories and distance dataTypes with bucket = 'day'. Running the app on an iPhone XR. Any ideas what I could do to fix this? I would like to update the data in background without affecting the user.

In Android this is not true, as I developed the code and it runs in a separate thread. In iOS, it relies on Telerik's code and I am not sure if it is actually asynchronous or not (it should if it follows Cordova's recommendations). If it's synchronous, it would be good if someone could help me make it run on another thread. Meanwhile, a workaround can be using a web worker.
