As of iOS 16.4, this no longer works reliably if the <code>CLLocationManager</code> is started when the app is backgrounded and <code>showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = false</code>. It does still seem to work if the <code>CLLocationManager</code> is started when the app is foregrounded and <code>showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = true</code>.

Went for a drive now with iOS 16.4 public and for me it all works 100% unless I'm severely overlooking something. I do have showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = true on the location manager that records a track. I don't have it on the location manager that listens for regions (iBeacons), but I do call startUpdatingLocation() on a region location manager before handing it over to the track location manager with showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = true, otherwise my track recording location manager would not start/stay recording in the background, I thought it was iOS specific - it might be iOS 16.4 specific then.</p> <p>I have competitor apps installed for the automatic mileage tracking, and 2 of 5 (all that really track) recorded now something like:</p> <p><img src="https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/db32e21b-6584-49d5-a422-c64269b4cda9" title="iOS164-track.jpeg" width="500" height="326" loading="lazy" data-lazy="true" /></p> <p>That would correspond to points in the significant location updates, maybe. No recording in between.</p> <p>That's going to be interesting.</p> <p>One more thing, on significant location events I do ask for the background time extension. Not sure that plays any role, I ask due to other things, but also start a probing location manager that has showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = false and it works. Hope this will not give Apple any wrong ideas :).</p> </div> </div> <div class="action-buttons"> <div class="action-buttons-first-part"> <button class="button button-block button-fit-content toggle-comments-button hidden" data-action="comments-toggle"> <span data-action="comments-count" data-comments-count="0">0</span> <span class="hide-mobile"> comments</span> <span class="toggle-icon"></span> </button> <div class="reply-voting-component" data-action="voting-component" data-post-id="748918022"> <a class="button button-block upvote-button" type="button" aria-label="Upvote after login" href="/forums/login"> <span class="upvote-icon"></span> </a> <span data-action="votes-count"> 0 </span> <a class="button button-block downvote-button" aria-label="down vote after login" type="button" href="/forums/login"> <span class="downvote-icon"></span> </a> </div> <a class="button button-block comment-button " href="/forums/login" aria-label="comments" data-action="comment-button"><span class="comment-icon"></span></a> <div class="copy-to-clipboard" data-action="copy-to-clipboard" data-author="staninprague" data-post-type="ANSWER"> <div class="tooltip-wrapper copy-post" data-action="tooltip" > <button class="copy-to-clipboard-button copy-post" type="button" aria-describedby="copy-post-tooltip-748918022" data-action="copy-to-clipboard-button" data-url="/thread/726945?answerId=748918022#748918022" data-title="Background location updates stop in iOS 16.4"> <span class="a11y" data-action="a11y-message">Copy to clipboard</span> </button> <div class="tooltip no-wrap " id="copy-post-tooltip-748918022" role="tooltip" data-action="tooltip-content" data-action-id="copy-post-tooltip" tabindex="-1"> Share this post </div> </div> <div class="tooltip-wrapper answer" data-action="tooltip" > <div class="tooltip no-wrap " id="copied-tooltip-748918022" role="tooltip" data-action="tooltip-content" data-action-id="copied-tooltip" tabindex="-1"> Copied to Clipboard </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="comments-section hidden" data-action="comments-section"> <ul class="comments-list" data-action="comments-list"></ul> <div data-action="comments-section-actions"> <div class="comments-section-buttons"> <button class="button button-block load-more-button hidden" data-action="load-more-button">Load more</button> <a class="button button-block add-comment-button hidden " href="/forums/login" data-action="add-comment-button" > Add comment </a> </div> <div class="comment-editor-wrapper-placeholder hidden" data-action="comment-editor-wrapper-placeholder" data-type="comment-editor-wrapper"></div> </div> </div> <div class="spinner comments-spinner" data-action="comments-spinner" aria-live="polite" aria-busy="true"></div> </div> </section> <section role="article" data-post-id="748899022" id="748899022" data-authorname="nickradar" data-author-link="/profile/nickradar" data-timestamp="1679968316799" data-author-id="25049021343-3541-en" data-url="/thread/726945?answerId=748899022#748899022" data-post-type="ANSWER" data-action="content-post" class="content-post answer" aria-labelledby="replyname-748899022" aria-describedby="post-status-748899022 "> <div class="hidden content-post-error-message" aria-live="polite" data-action="content-post-error-box"> <span class="icon icon-before icon-exclamationsolid" aria-hidden="true"> </span> <span data-action="content-post-error-message"></span> </div> <div class="content-post-header"> <div class="content-post-author"> <a class="content-post-author-avatar" href="/forums/profile/nickradar"> <div class="avatar-container default-avatar"> <img src="https://developer.apple.com/forums/public/assets/avatars/1094.png" alt="" data-action="user-avatar" class="avatar "/> </div> </a> <div class="author-name-group"> <div class="content-post-author-name-wrapper"> <a class="content-post-author-name" data-action="author-name" data-author-apple-employee=false data-author-name="nickradar" data-author-public-name="" href="/forums/profile/nickradar"> nickradar </a> <span class="op-label" data-action="op-label">OP</span> </div> </div> </div> <span class="header-right"> <div class="content-post-metadata"> <span data-action="created-time" data-timestamp=1679968316799>Mar ’23</span> </div> </span> </div> <div class="post"> <div class="top-answer-badges" data-action="top-answer-voting-component" data-post-id="748899022" data-post-type="ANSWER"> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-content" data-post-id="748899022" tabindex="-1" data-post-type="ANSWER" data-action="content-post-body-content"> <p>I'm only seeing the issue when <code>showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = false</code> and <code>startUpdatingLocation()</code> is called while the app is backgrounded.

<p>Beginning in iOS 16.4, apps calling both startUpdatingLocation() AND startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges() may get suspended in the background if they are specifying low accuracy and distance filtering in the location manager settings.</p> <p>If your app needs only low accuracy locations of kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer and up, use startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges() for that purpose instead.</p> <p>If your app requires continuous high accuracy locations in the background, you must set the following location manager properties:</p> <ul><li>allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates must be set to TRUE or YES</li><li>distanceFilter must not be set, or set to kCLDistanceFilterNone</li><li>desiredAccuracy must be kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters or better. If you’re using numeric values, it must be set to less than 1000 meters</li></ul> <p>Alternatively you can turn on the location indicator which will avoid the issue. You can do this by setting</p> <ul><li>showsBackgroundLocationIndicator to TRUE or YES</li></ul> <p>If you implement the above changes in your app, its location update behavior will be similar to behavior prior to iOS 16.4. Without these changes, your app may not be able to receive continuous background location updates.</p> </div> </div> <div class="action-buttons"> <div class="action-buttons-first-part"> <button class="button button-block button-fit-content toggle-comments-button" data-action="comments-toggle"> <span data-action="comments-count" data-comments-count="13">13</span> <span class="hide-mobile"> comments</span> <span class="toggle-icon"></span> </button> <div class="reply-voting-component" data-action="voting-component" data-post-id="749230022"> <a class="button button-block upvote-button" type="button" aria-label="Upvote after login" href="/forums/login"> <span class="upvote-icon"></span> </a> <span data-action="votes-count"> 2 </span> <a class="button button-block downvote-button" aria-label="down vote after login" type="button" href="/forums/login"> <span class="downvote-icon"></span> </a> </div> <a class="button button-block comment-button " href="/forums/login" aria-label="comments" data-action="comment-button"><span class="comment-icon"></span></a> <div class="copy-to-clipboard" data-action="copy-to-clipboard" data-author="" data-post-type="ANSWER"> <div class="tooltip-wrapper copy-post" data-action="tooltip" > <button class="copy-to-clipboard-button copy-post" type="button" aria-describedby="copy-post-tooltip-749230022" data-action="copy-to-clipboard-button" data-url="/thread/726945?answerId=749230022#749230022" data-title="Background location updates stop in iOS 16.4"> <span class="a11y" data-action="a11y-message">Copy to clipboard</span> </button> <div class="tooltip no-wrap " id="copy-post-tooltip-749230022" role="tooltip" data-action="tooltip-content" data-action-id="copy-post-tooltip" tabindex="-1"> Share this post </div> </div> <div class="tooltip-wrapper answer" data-action="tooltip" > <div class="tooltip no-wrap " id="copied-tooltip-749230022" role="tooltip" data-action="tooltip-content" data-action-id="copied-tooltip" tabindex="-1"> Copied to Clipboard </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="comments-section hidden" data-action="comments-section"> <ul class="comments-list" data-action="comments-list"></ul> <div data-action="comments-section-actions"> <div class="comments-section-buttons"> <button class="button button-block load-more-button hidden" data-action="load-more-button">Load more</button> <a class="button button-block add-comment-button hidden " href="/forums/login" data-action="add-comment-button" > Add comment </a> </div> <div class="comment-editor-wrapper-placeholder hidden" data-action="comment-editor-wrapper-placeholder" data-type="comment-editor-wrapper"></div> </div> </div> <div class="spinner comments-spinner" data-action="comments-spinner" aria-live="polite" aria-busy="true"></div> </div> </section> <section role="article" data-post-id="749682022" id="749682022" data-authorname="egalindo" data-author-link="/profile/egalindo" data-timestamp="1680646714496" data-author-id="8280612515-3541-en" data-url="/thread/726945?answerId=749682022#749682022" data-post-type="ANSWER" data-action="content-post" class="content-post answer" aria-labelledby="replyname-749682022" aria-describedby="post-status-749682022 "> <div class="hidden content-post-error-message" aria-live="polite" data-action="content-post-error-box"> <span class="icon icon-before icon-exclamationsolid" aria-hidden="true"> </span> <span data-action="content-post-error-message"></span> </div> <div class="content-post-header"> <div class="content-post-author"> <a class="content-post-author-avatar" href="/forums/profile/egalindo"> <div class="avatar-container default-avatar"> <img src="https://developer.apple.com/forums/public/assets/avatars/SYSTEM_DEFAULT_AVATAR.svg" alt="" data-action="user-avatar" class="avatar "/> </div> </a> <div class="author-name-group"> <div class="content-post-author-name-wrapper"> <a class="content-post-author-name" data-action="author-name" data-author-apple-employee=false data-author-name="egalindo" data-author-public-name="" href="/forums/profile/egalindo"> egalindo </a> <span class="op-label" data-action="op-label">OP</span> </div> </div> </div> <span class="header-right"> <div class="content-post-metadata"> <span data-action="created-time" data-timestamp=1680646714496>Apr ’23</span> </div> </span> </div> <div class="post"> <div class="top-answer-badges" data-action="top-answer-voting-component" data-post-id="749682022" data-post-type="ANSWER"> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-content" data-post-id="749682022" tabindex="-1" data-post-type="ANSWER" data-action="content-post-body-content"> <p>Hi.

Beginning in iOS 16.4, apps calling both startUpdatingLocation() AND startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges() may get suspended in the background if they are specifying low accuracy and distance filtering in the location manager settings. If your app needs only low accuracy locations of kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer and up, use startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges() for that purpose instead. If your app requires continuous high accuracy locations in the background, you must set the following location manager properties: allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates must be set to TRUE or YES distanceFilter must not be set, or set to kCLDistanceFilterNone desiredAccuracy must be kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters or better. If you’re using numeric values, it must be set to less than 1000 meters Alternatively you can turn on the location indicator which will avoid the issue.

I don't have it on the location manager that listens for regions (iBeacons), but I do call startUpdatingLocation() on a region location manager before handing it over to the track location manager with showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = true, otherwise my track recording location manager would not start/stay recording in the background, I thought it was iOS specific - it might be iOS 16.4 specific then. I have competitor apps installed for the automatic mileage tracking, and 2 of 5 (all that really track) recorded now something like: That would correspond to points in the significant location updates, maybe. No recording in between. That's going to be interesting. One more thing, on significant location events I do ask for the background time extension.

I use accuracy 100m and no location indicator. However, one drawback of not having the distance filter is that when moving, even walking or on a bike, I get 20-30 events per minute mostly with no change in coordinates.
