I want to update user location support from ios5 onwards.I think after ios6 onwards we can easily get user location both foreground and background mode.I want to also get user location on background mode in iOS5.Please help me.How to solve this issue?
I'm posting some screenshots for you to change the ios deployment target to 5.0 in latest xcode 8.2.1 and to fetch background location for ios 5.
Follow the Image step.
That all. Now Location should be fetch in iOS5's devices.
Thanks

I am creating an Uber Clone App and I go the location of the simulator which is Apples location, and when I started the simulator the location started moving, as if someone is following a path around Apple. I haven't made it to where it can move, all my code is doing is grabbing the users location. Can anybody explain why this is happening?
The location in the iOS Simulator can move because it is being simulated by software. The iOS Simulator can simulate various locations for testing purposes. The location can be changed manually in the Debug > Location menu or programmatically through code.
If you're experiencing unexpected movement in the location, it's possible that it's being changed by an app or a test that you're running. If that's not the case, then it might be a bug in the iOS Simulator and you can try restarting it or resetting it to its default settings.
How to put app in background and relaunch in Appium iOS for iOS 9.3 and ios 10.0?
I've tried runInBackground(10) but it works only for Android not working for iOS.
To put app to background for 10 second please follow below syntax :
driver.runAppInBackground(Duration.ofSeconds(10));
For more details please follow:

I have enabled Background Modes > Location updates in my target's capabilites. I run the app in an iOS 9 simulator, I put the app in background state with Location > City run in the simulator, and it seems to keep getting location updates. But I run the app in a real iOS 9 device and few seconds after going to background, I loose the location services arrow in the status bar and no location updates are received.
On the other hand, I've run the app in a real iOS 8 device and it seems to keep listening for locations (the arrow in the status bar does not disappear).
Why are location services stopping in background in an iOS 9 real iPhone?
I need help to solve this, thanks in advance.
With iOS 9 you also need to set allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates to yes. See the docs here
How do I simulate GPS movement on iOS simulator? I am developing an app that uses gps an I need to test it while the user location is changing.. How can I do that? thank you in advance..
From the Features > Location menu of the iOS Simulator, check the Location menu:
Note: The screenshot below is outdated, however the path above has been updated to reflect the proper menu location for this option.
It provides you with several options pertaining to changing the location of the simulated device.
For those that are getting here in 2020, things have changed a little bit,
You'll find the options to modify location settings under Features
Events like location changes launch concerning app into background if it is not launched yet. But I don't see how to simulate such scenarios on simulator. Is it possible? How?
It's not possible with iOS Simulator found in current public SDK.
I know this is borderline breaking NDA, but you should take a look at Hardware menu item of new iOS Simulator that comes with Xcode 4.2 beta.
