X-T100 and Geotagging?

I'm considering the X-T100, and geotagging is important for the work I do. I've looked at some old threads about geotagging with X-series bodies, but I'm wondering if anything has changed with X-T100 or if anyone has experience using it. Specifically:

  • From what I've seen on the old threads with previous X-bodies, you can use the phone app to communicate with the camera. The phone supplies the GPS info, but it seems that it is not continuously updating. I.e., it gives a location which remains valid for an hour or so. Has Fuji updated things to provide continuous geotagging info?
  • If anyone is doing this, what sort of hit on the battery life of the camera and phone is there?

Thanks for any info!
(BTW, I suppose I could continue to do what I'm doing now, but I'm hoping to save some extra steps. For now, I use my Garmin watch to track a walk or hike, download the GPX file, then go into Lightroom and sync the pic files with the GPX.)
