iOS Location (Overview)
Location: It means you exist in this world at some point on earth which we called the intersection of two points (latitude and longitude).
Almost all apps today use location services , but when we give access to location services to use in our app it causes battery drainage and other issues .So lets try to understand location in iOS and how we can use this in best optimised way.
Types of location :
iOS understand the location in following ways. It similar like we walk , jogging , running etc:
- Standard location service: Consider this as user moves and device start getting location using GPS.
- Region monitoring: Its just like you enter or exit in your company or any area and you will get notify. (beacon,bluetooth, radius ,latitude/longitude some of the keys will use in this).
- Significant-change location: Operating system only notify you when you move certain distance (for eg 500 m) not everytime.
