Can I get my iOS app to appear on the lower left corner of the lock screen?

Question

How do I get my app icon to show in the bottom left corner of the lock screen and have it link to the app store? Can I control that using iBeacons? Is it easy to test withou

Answer 1

You need to register the UUID in your app that the beacon is broadcasting. You use a CLLocationManager to register for a CLBeaconRegion with the associated UUID, which will then cause the delegate of CLLocationManager method -locationManager:didEnterRegion: to fire.

2Mike Welsh Pls can you show any code how to "register the UUID in your app that the beacon is broadcasting". Also if you finding beacons with UUID+major+minor - do you need to to register them all? Because I have about 100 ibeacones and all of them have different major, minor.

If iPhone owner don't download my app never, how he will see it in the corner? How Apple will know, that exactly this uuid, major, minor are by this app? Where they take information?

Can you show on you example? Because now I have a lot of questions, but still no answers, just completely different information.
