Google place picker interrupts the background location updates in iPhone - ios

Question

I'm developing a location-based mobile application. My app updates the server with user's current location even when the app is killed/terminated. My app was working fine before integrating google place picker API. After installing google place picker API for ios, my app updates the location for about 5 to 10 minutes only and then it stops updating location.
//My code :
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Initialize Location Manager
sLocationManager;
//the system automatically relaunches the application into the background if a new event arrives.
// The options dictionary passed to the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method of your application delegate contains the key UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocationKey to indicate that your application was launched because of a location event
if (launchOptions[UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocationKey]) {
NSLog(#"---UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocationKey");
sLocationManager.locationUpdatedInBackground = ^(NSArray<CLLocation *> *locations) {
NSLog(#"---setLocationUpdatedInBackground");
[sLocationModule saveNewLocations];
UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
notification.fireDate = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:300];
notification.alertBody = #"Your location was changed. Please run application for tracking your geoposition with best accuracy.";
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:notification];
[sLocationManager startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges];
};
}else {
sLocationManager.locationUpdatedInForeground = ^(NSArray<CLLocation *> *locations) {
NSLog(#"---setLocationUpdatedInForeground");
[sLocationModule saveNewLocations];
};
sLocationManager.locationUpdatedInBackground = ^(NSArray<CLLocation *> *locations) {
NSLog(#"---setLocationUpdatedInBackground");
[sLocationModule saveNewLocations];
[sLocationManager startDeferredLocationUpdates];
};
// Notifications
[application cancelAllLocalNotifications];
}
return YES;
//location manager
#pragma mark - CLLocationManager Delegate
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray<CLLocation *> *)aLocations {
NSString *infoMessage = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", aLocations];
NSLog(#"%#", infoMessage);
locations = [#[] mutableCopy];
NSLog(#"locations=%#",locations);
[aLocations enumerateObjectsUsingBlock:^(CLLocation * _Nonnull location, NSUInteger idx, BOOL * _Nonnull stop) {
// Check for location errors (speed -1.00 mps / course -1.00)
// if (location.speed >= 0 &&
// location.course >= 0) {
if (locations.count > 0) {
if ([location.timestamp timeIntervalSinceDate:[locations lastObject].timestamp] > dLocationManagerDistanceFilter ||
[location distanceFromLocation:[locations lastObject]] > dLocationUpdatesUntilTimeout) {
[locations addObject:location];
NSLog(#"location.timestamp>dLocationManagerDistanceFilter**** locations=%#",locations);
}
} else
[locations addObject:location];
NSLog(#"else***locations=%#",locations);
//save location in userdefaults
NSString *latitudeValue = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f", location.coordinate.latitude];
NSString *longitudeValue = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f",location.coordinate.longitude];
NSLog(#"new location is recieved Lat : %# Long : %#",latitudeValue,longitudeValue);
[User setUserLat:latitudeValue];
[User setUserLon:longitudeValue];
// }
}];
if ([self isInBackground]) {
NSLog(#"app is in background***");
if (self.locationUpdatedInBackground) {
backgroundTaskIdentifier = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler: ^{
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] endBackgroundTask:backgroundTaskIdentifier];
}];
self.locationUpdatedInBackground(locations);
[delegate locationManagerDidUpdateLocationInBackground];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:nLocationManagerDidUpdateLocationInBackgroundNotification
object:nil
userInfo:nil];
[self endBackgroundTask];
}
} else {
if (self.locationUpdatedInForeground) {
if([[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]objectForKey:#"userIdKey"]){
self.locationUpdatedInForeground(locations);
[delegate locationManagerDidUpdateLocationInForeground];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:nLocationManagerDidUpdateLocationInForegroundNotification

code for adding place picker

Can anyone tell, what am I doing wrong here? What is the best to use place picker without affecting background location updates or is there any other way to pick place/location just like google place picker in ios?
Please help me out or tell me the other solution.
thank you!
