Getting Current Location instead of Cache ios - ios

Question

I have searched a lot and didn't get any satisfactory answer, I have a scenario where I am showing a list of sellers based on user's current location. I am getting a location for the first time and when I run my App afterward whenever I try to get the location I am getting a cache location data. I did try after some time even after every 24 hours but still getting the cache location where my current location is changed as well. Following is the code I am using for reference. please advise.
Property defined in Header file
#property (nonatomic,retain) CLLocationManager *locationManager;
- (void)startSingleLocationRequest
{
self.locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
self.locationManager.delegate = self;
self.locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyNearestTenMeters;
[self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
[self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization];
}
#pragma mark --didUpdateLocations
-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray<CLLocation *> *)locations{
self.latitudeValue = locations.lastObject.coordinate.latitude;
self.longitudeValue = locations.lastObject.coordinate.longitude;
// location set for simulation to UK
if(self.latitudeValue != 51.509979 && self.longitudeValue != -0.133700){
[MBProgressHUD hideHUDForView:self.outletSearchNearBy animated:YES];
[self.locationManager stopUpdatingLocation];
abc *slv =[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"abc"];
slv.receivedLatitudeValue = self.latitudeValue;
slv.receivedLongitudeValue = self.longitudeValue;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:slv animated:YES];
}
else{}
}

Answer 1

You can do something like,
-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations{
for(int i=0;i<locations.count;i++){
CLLocation * newLocation = [locations objectAtIndex:i];
CLLocationCoordinate2D theLocation = newLocation.coordinate;
CLLocationAccuracy theAccuracy = newLocation.horizontalAccuracy;
NSTimeInterval locationAge = -[newLocation.timestamp timeIntervalSinceNow];
if (locationAge > 5.0)
{
continue;
}
// do your all stuff here and then
break;
}
}
Your code will not executes if your location age is more than 5 seconds. You can decide location age lie 10 seconds or 20 seconds!
Update :
Just replace your property declaration
#property (nonatomic,retain) CLLocationManager *locationManager;
with
#property (nonatomic,strong) CLLocationManager *locationManager;
or
just declare it as instance variable like,
CLLocationManager *locationManager;
and remove self from avery instance of it!
Second thing,
You should do first,
[self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization];
and then start update of location,
[self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];

Answer 2

Can you try like this
self.locationManager.pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically = NO;
Because it
Specifies that location updates may automatically be paused when possible.
By default, this is YES for applications linked against iOS 6.0 or later.
On the other hand, kCLLocationAccuracyBestForNavigation uses top speed GPS. So better to use this instead of kCLLocationAccuracyNearestTenMeters.

Lion thanks for the support, actually i was checking location inside the plaza and due to that i was not getting the right location, i tested by coming outside and it is showing perfectly. anyways thanks lion you have been really helpful.
