# stopMonitoring(for:)

Stops monitoring the specified region.

```
func stopMonitoring(for region: CLRegion)
```

## Parameters

`region`

The region object currently being monitored. This parameter must not be `nil`.

## Discussion

If the specified region object is not currently being monitored, this method has no effect. If a compatible iPad or iPhone app calls this method when running in visionOS, the method does nothing.
