Location Services not working in iOS 8

Question

My app that worked fine on iOS 7 doesn\'t work with the iOS 8 SDK.

CLLocationManager doesn\'t return a location, and I don\'t see my app under

Answer 1

Solution with backward compatibility which doesn't produce Xcode warnings:

SEL requestSelector = NSSelectorFromString(@"requestWhenInUseAuthorization");
if ([CLLocationManager authorizationStatus] == kCLAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined &&
  [self.locationManager respondsToSelector:requestSelector]) {
((void (*)(id, SEL))[self.locationManager methodForSelector:requestSelector])(self.locationManager, requestSelector);
  [self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
} else {
  [self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}

Setup NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription key in your Info.plist.

For iOS version 11.0+ : Setup NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription key in your Info.plist. along with other 2 keys.
