Question

I want to set required background mode key value so that my app also works in background. Actually i want to get the user location updates when the app is in background, but there is no key called required background mode key in my info-plist file. How to set this key and jow to bring this in my file?

Was it helpful?

Solution

In Xcode 5, Project setting -> Target -> Capabilities -> Background modes -> check Location updates.

If you are using an earlier version of Xcode, set the background mode for Location as in the following screenshot.

OTHER TIPS

In Xcode 5, Select your app, then enabled background modes and select location updates

Target > Capabilities

You can add that key to the info.plist. If you are using Xcode 5 it's very simple. In Capabilities just turn on the Background Modes.
