Background Modes - Location Updates | raywenderlich.com


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://www.raywenderlich.com/8429-background-modes-location-updates

Looks great, it speaks about having your app put into the background. I was wondering that if the user restarts their phone then does the permissions persist and does it start automatically in the background?

I have an application idea that want to report back the gps to an endpoint. I would like this to continue even is the application isn’t open and i presume on a restart too

Any ideas ?

@hococoder Can you please help with this when you get a chance? Thank you - much appreciated! :]

Hmmm that’s a good question, and to be honest, I don’t know the answer! My hunch would be that your app would have to be started at least once, just to register with the system since I don’t think those would survive a reboot.
