First of all : Thanks for the great presentation (wwdc2023-10180), Siraj ! This new, simple API looks like what we've been looking for for easy manageable background location updates with 'automatic battery drain minimization' :-) There were two questions that came to my mind. As far as I understood, the CLLocationUpdate.LiveConfiguration is used to help the location services to improve the location fixes. Are there other options planned to specify the granularity of delivered locations e.g., how accurate the locations need to be (as the desiredAccuracy and distanceFilter settings for the olden CLLocationManager)? Does the Implementation switch between significant location changes and regular, more expensive ways (like GPS hardware) or just deliver the most feasible accuracy available at the time of notification? I'm just curious - if I get the most feasible granularity, everything is fine for me anyway :-) Thanks again, Michael

Does visionOS support mapkit?

We are currently experiencing a very interesting issue when accessing the location in the background with CLLocationManager. The user has given our app the "whenInUse" permission for locations and in most cases the app provides location updates even when it's in the background. However, when we started to use other navigation apps in the foreground we saw that the func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: Error) method was called with (kCLErrorDomain error 1.). The user hasn't changed the location permission and we saw that locations were delivered once the user opened the app again. I don't see anything in the documentation explaining this issue, but I chatted with other developers that confirm that specific behavior. Am I missing something here?

I'm working on an in-house iOS app designed to help users accurately track their routes during trips. Currently, I've implemented a method to track users when the app is open in the background. However, I'm facing challenges, as the tracking stops when the device is locked for more than 10 minutes. I'm looking for a solution to continuously track a user's geolocation, even if the app is closed or not in use. Specifically, I want to ensure uninterrupted tracking, especially when the device is locked. Here are some key points: Current Method: I'm currently using the Core Location method and a combination of background tasks and a repeating timer to fetch the user's location and update a log for geolocation tracking when the app is open in the background. Issues Faced: The tracking stops when the device is locked for more than 10 minutes. This limitation impacts the accuracy of the route tracking during longer trips. Objective: My goal is to achieve continuous geolocation tracking, even when the app is closed or not actively used, to provide users with a seamless and accurate record of their routes. Platform: The app is developed for iOS using the .net maui platform, and I'm seeking solutions or suggestions that are compatible with the iOS .net maui environment. If anyone has experience or insights into achieving continuous geolocation tracking on iOS, especially when the app is not in use or the device is locked, I would greatly appreciate the assistance.

This question has been asked several times by other users before. But there is no solution provided it seems. So I am asking the same here. I have a screen where I add mapview as a subview. In that it is showing instead of "Legal".

I have tried to make colored annotations in mapView (shown in the commented sections) but they always appear in black. Any help would be appreciated. func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, viewFor annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView? { let annotationView = MKAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: "TempAnnotationView") annotationView.canShowCallout = true annotationView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = UIButton(type: .detailDisclosure) let configuration = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(pointSize: 10, weight: .thin, scale: .default) if annotation.title == "Start" { // let config = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration.preferringMulticolor() // let image = UIImage(systemName: "flag.fill", withConfiguration: config) // // palette // let config2 = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(paletteColors: [.systemRed, .systemGreen, .systemBlue]) // let image2 = UIImage(systemName: "person.3.sequence.fill", withConfiguration: config2) // // hierarchical symbols // let config3 = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(hierarchicalColor: .systemIndigo) // let image3 = UIImage(systemName: "square.stack.3d.down.right.fill", withConfiguration: config3) // // color // let image4 = UIImage(systemName: "cone.fill")?.withTintColor(.systemRed, renderingMode: .alwaysTemplate) // annotationView.image = image4 annotationView.image = UIImage(systemName: "poweron", withConfiguration: configuration) } return annotationView }

While updating my app for iOS 18 I have run into some major issues with how CLMonitor and visit tracking are handled in the background. I have implemented the new CLServiceSession (i think) correctly. In my @main App struct's init method I call CLServiceSession(authorization: .always) to create a session. This is done in the foreground when the app is launched and also in the background. From what i understand this is the intended way to create a session as when the app is relaunched by the system the existing session is terminated a few moments later. What im seeing in iOS 18 vs iOS 17 is drastically less location updates being delivered to the app. i see around the same significant updates being delivered (around 1 per mile - 5 miles) but the CLMonitor.CircularGeographicConditions are being triggered at about 1 per 1 to 2 minutes regardless of the radius. When a zone is left the condition is removed in the background and a new condition is created at the next place it should be tracking. For visit tracking, it only reports a visit correctly about 10% of the time. my guess is the app is getting suspended and/or terminated and the CLServiceSession isn't correctly being reinitialized (or something completely different, i'm really not sure at this point) I would love some guidance as to the correct way to handle these updates in iOS 18. It is unclear if these are intentional limitations imposed in iOS 18, incorrect implementation on my part, or a bug in the betas. Note: startUpdatingLocation is not appropriate for this app as it is way too power hungry.

I have the CarPlay Entitlement "Driving Task" and two of my apps use it. Now, in both apps, I have implemented Navigation. I requested the Navigation CarPlay Entitlement when the feature was mature and builds were available in Test Flight, since I wanted to release the new versions of the apps with navigation available both on the iPhone and in CarPlay. I got no answer to my request, so I decided to release the apps with only navigation in the iPhone and the Driving Task functionality in CarPlay, thinking that maybe being live with navigation in the App Store was a requirement. I have asked permission again, and so far, the request is being ignored again. What are the requirements to get the Navigation CarPlay Entitlement? If the app is approved for navigation, is there something else the app must do to get the entitlement? Requirements for CarPlay Entitlements seem quite obscure, are they listed anywhere? Is there a technical problem to move from an existing CarPlay Entitlement to another? Can that be the reason the entitlement has not been granted? Some of my competitors have the CarPlay Navigation entitlement. My use case is the same (in a better app in my opinion, of course). But I am only getting bad reviews because "the app does not include the map in CarPlay" after the big investment in implementing navigation in the apps. Any help or insight would be appreciated.

Has anyone found a thread-safe pattern that can extract results from completerDidUpdateResults(MKLocalSearchCompleter) in the MKLocalSearchCompleterDelegate ? I've downloaded the code sample from Interacting with nearby points of interest and notice the conformance throws multiple errors in Xcode 16 Beta 5 with Swift 6: extension SearchDataSource: MKLocalSearchCompleterDelegate { nonisolated func completerDidUpdateResults(_ completer: MKLocalSearchCompleter) { Task { let suggestedCompletions = completer.results await resultStreamContinuation?.yield(suggestedCompletions) } } Error: Task-isolated value of type '() async -> ()' passed as a strongly transferred parameter; later accesses could race and Error: Sending 'suggestedCompletions' risks causing data races Is there another technique I can use to share state of suggestedCompletions outside of the delegate in the code sample?

Hello everyone, I’m experiencing an issue with App Clips Advanced Experiences and Apple Maps/Siri Suggestions. We have already contacted Apple Support before, but they are investigating the cause of this issue and it has not been resolved til date. The App Clip is bundled with the main app and has been already available on the App Store for several months. The business running the app has several physical shops and wants to offer the App Clip to show up in Apple Maps and Siri Suggestions at each location. The App Clip is correctly exposed in the AASA file, and it's also validated correctly by the AASA APIs available at https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1. { "applinks": { "apps": [], "details": [ { "appID": "TEAMID.bundleid", "paths": [] } ] }, "appclips": { "apps": [ "TEAMID.bundleid.Clip" ] } } (with TEAMID and bundleid being the team and bundle identifiers of the app) The App Clip is displayed correctly when loading the website and when scanning a QR code or App Clip code, but doesn't appear in the Maps app or in Siri suggestions. We have set up the App Clip Advanced Experiences on the App Store Connect page of the app, and each URL has been linked to a physical shop. All URLs are in the "Received" state, so they should appear correctly on Maps. Unfortunately, I don't see any "Order" button in Apple Maps at any location card. We tried with both iOS 17 and 16. According to feedbacks from people in the shops, they don't see the app suggested in the Siri Suggestions. I have just submitted a Custom Action Link on Apple Business Connect for one of the shops, but without success: the App Clip doesn't appear. Any idea why is this happening?

We developed a app in which the I need the app to update the User's location even in background( even after terminating from the recent UI ), Currently I am receiving the location updates when the user has kept the app in open and if minimised, But I want that it should update the location even when it is removed from recent app (minimised UI)(after terminating the app) Is it possible to do so.???

This is a standalone SwiftUI app w/ watchOS 11. To make things simple, I'm using the new concurrent API, like that: for try await update in CLLocationUpdate.liveUpdates() { … } watchOS is supposed to show the auth dialog, but it doesn't show up, even though update.authorizationRequestInProgress is true. What could be the reason? (Note that I also tried with the procedural old CLLocationManager API, it doesn't work that way as well)

I have checked the setting and it is and has always been set to forever when it comes to settings-messages-message history. Yet since I upgraded to ios 18.1, my messages have started to delete by themselves every other day or so. In the last week, I have had to go into the recently deleted and recovered the messages at least 3-4 times. It does not delete all my messages just random messages from whom I have messaged recently. I have message that have been there for at least 6 years and those are not deleting. Please help before I lose some valuable messages.

Hello everyone, I’m facing an issue with my iOS app where the GPS/location services icon appears in the status bar immediately when the app is launched, even though I’m not intentionally accessing location services at that point. Issue Summary: • GPS Icon Activation: When I launch my app, the GPS icon turns on. It turns off when the app is minimized or closed. • No Intentional Location Usage at Launch: I have ensured that no instances of CLLocationManager are created when the app is launched. What I’ve Tried So Far: 1. Checked Controllers and Related Classes: • Reviewed all the code for the controllers that are active at launch. • Verified that none of these controllers create instances of CLLocationManager or call location-related methods. 2. Commented Out startUpdatingLocation: • Commented out all calls to startUpdatingLocation throughout the entire project. 3. Ensured No CLLocationManager Instances at Launch: • Searched for any code that might instantiate CLLocationManager during app launch. • Confirmed that no such instances are being created. 4. Commented Out Google Maps SDK Configuration: • In AppDelegate, commented out the Google Maps SDK configuration, so it’s not initialized with the API key. • No map views (GMSMapView, MKMapView) are initialized or used when the app is launched. 5. Tested Location Permissions: • When I change the location permission for the app to “Never” in the Settings app, the GPS icon does not appear upon app launch. • This suggests that the app is accessing location services when it has permission, even though I haven’t explicitly requested it at launch. Objective: • Control GPS Activation: I want to ensure that the GPS does not turn on when the app is launched. I intend to activate location services only when needed later in the app. Request for Assistance: I’m seeking guidance on the following: 1. Debugging Techniques: • How can I trace the code that’s causing the GPS to turn on at app launch? • Are there tools or methods to identify hidden or indirect calls to location services? 2. Forcing Location Services Off at Launch: • Is there a way to programmatically prevent location services from activating during app launch? • Can I defer any implicit location service initialization until I explicitly enable it? 3. Potential Hidden Triggers: • Are there known scenarios where location services could be activated without direct use of CLLocationManager? • Could frameworks like Google Maps SDK trigger location services even if not fully initialized? 4. Additional Suggestions: • Any other insights or suggestions to prevent the GPS icon from appearing on app launch. Additional Information: • Third-Party Frameworks: • I have not removed third-party frameworks yet, as I wanted to check other possibilities first. • Open to the idea that a third-party framework might be causing this, but need guidance on how to confirm. • Code Availability: • I’m happy to provide specific code snippets if that would help diagnose the issue. Environment: • Xcode Version: Xcode 15.4, Xcode 16.0 • iOS Deployment Target: iOS 15.0 • Devices Tested: iPhone SE 2nd and 3rd gen, iPhone 15, iPhone 15 pro, iPhone 11 • Programming Language: Swift What I’m Looking For: • Assistance in tracing the cause of the GPS activation on app launch. • Suggestions on how to prevent location services from starting until explicitly needed. • Insights into any hidden triggers or indirect usages that might cause this behavior. Thank you for your time and assistance. Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I keep getting severe weather warnings in CA but I’m in NY. I have checked my locations and I have no CA weather requests selected. I clicked on the alert and it said it was from weatherkit. How do I make these CA go away for good? Thanks!

I updated my phone 14 pro to ios 18 and I faced issue with GPS. it’s show me in next Country and after minutes or hours it’s moved to the correct location how is it can fix it

Hi, I am working on a React Native app and i want to have a latitude longitude of a user in every 15 minutes and want to do something like an api call with it. I want to keep continuing this no matter my app is in background, foreground or in killed state. Is there any way or method through which i can achieve this natively or using React Native?

We are experiencing an issue where MKMapView appears red on the app builded with Xcode 16 and executed on iOS 18 simulator. Only the ground is affected and buildings or POIs stay normal color. Xcode 16.1 beta 3 shows same result. Is there any similar case?

Hi, Where can I get more information on expected behaviour for the liveUpdates() configuration options, .default, .automotiveNavigation, .fitness, .automotive, .otherNavigation? Looking for expected accuracy, frequency of updates, non/stationary transition, etc. Thanks
