Swift:

Add following in

import CoreLocation
class YourViewController: UIViewController
{
       var locationManager:CLLocationManager!
}


//MARK:- Location Manager
extension YourViewController: CLLocationManagerDelegate {

    func stratLocationManager()
    {
        locationManager = CLLocationManager()
        locationManager.delegate = self
        locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
        self.checkUsersLocationServicesAuthorization()
        locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()

    }

    func checkUsersLocationServicesAuthorization(){
        /// Check if user has authorized Total Plus to use Location Services
        if CLLocationManager.locationServicesEnabled()
        {
            switch CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus()
            {
            case .notDetermined:
                // Request when-in-use authorization initially
                // This is the first and the ONLY time you will be able to ask the user for permission
                self.locationManager.delegate = self
                locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
                break

            case .restricted, .denied:
                // Disable location features
                PrintLogs("Location Access Not Available")
                break

            case .authorizedWhenInUse, .authorizedAlways:
                // Enable features that require location services here.
                PrintLogs("Location Access Available")
                break
            }
        }
    }

    func locationManager(_ manager:CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
        print("locations = \(locations)")
    }
}
