startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges not working in swift

Question

I\'d added CLLocationManager in my app using Swift in the AppDelegate file.

In the Appdelegate.swift file,

import CoreLocation
@UIApplicationMain
cla         


        

Answer 1

It's working, but it's really hard to trigger significant location changes - it usually happens when the device is changing cell towers - I don't think it's possible to do with the simulator.

You'd probably have to get on a bike/car and travel AT LEAST a few kilometres.

There's a trick you can use though, that will trigger significant location change:

Switch Airplaine mode in your iPhone on and off with a few second intervals repeatedly, it should trick the device into thinking that it changed cell towers and trigger the significant location change.
