Answer 1

I finally got this, this API is free and unlimited on client side application based on the user current location getting from (GeoLocation.getCurrentPosition Method).

Read their terms and conditions must.

Not with the Geolocation package. You can in react native using the exp-location package. Find a doc here https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/sdk/location/. You can get location, get longitude and latitude, then reverse geocode and return the address object. Pricing for exp https://expo.io/pricing there is a free option.

import React, {useState, useEffect} from 'react'
import * as Location from 'expo-location'
import * as Premmissions from 'expo-premmissions'

export function location(){
  const [currentCoords, setCurrentCoords] = React.useState<Object>(null)
  const [location, setLocation] = React.useState<Object> (null);
  const [address, setAddress ] = React.useState<Object>(null);

  useEffect(() => {

     (async () => {
     // get phone premission
       let { status } = await Location.requestPermissionsAsync();
       if (status !== 'granted') {
         setErrorMsg('Permission to access location was denied');
         return;
       }
       //get location using exp-location package
       const location = await Location.getCurrentPositionAsync({});
       setLocation(location);
       setCurrentCoords({
         latitude: location.coords.latitude,
         longitude: location.coords.longitude,
    
       })
       // print the phone location
       console.log(location)
       const readOnlyAddress = await Location.reverseGeocodeAsync(currentCoords);
       setAddress(readOnlyAddress[0]);
       //print the postal address. 
       console.log(address)
     })();
   }, []);
   let locationText = "waiting...";
   if (location){
   locationText = JSON.stringify(location);
   }
   let addressText = "waiting";
   if(address){
    addressText = JSON.stringify(address);
   }
   return(
   <Text>{locationText}</Text>
   <Text>{addressText}</Text>
   )
}

There is a new reverse geocoding service online available. It's in the startup phase. Anyway it's possibile to use the reverse geocode engine using http/s requests. Basic demo of the service is here. https://feroeg.com/Demo.html Disclaimer: I'm the owner of the site. The data are from Open StreetMap and OpenAddresses. Feel free to experiment with it. You can use you browser to query. Example: https://www.feroeg.com/address?lat=40.786138&lon=-73.950691&mode=text
