The session titled "What’s new in location authorization" at WWDC 2024 covers updates and improvements in the Core Location framework, specifically focusing on location authorization. Here are some key points from the session:
-
CL Service Session: This is a new declarative way to specify your app's location authorization goals. It simplifies the process of handling location permissions by allowing you to define what your app needs for each feature while it is running.
-
Session Lifecycle: The session discusses how to manage service sessions, including what happens when your app is suspended or terminated. Core Location can resume or relaunch the app into the background when new information is ready, provided the app's authorization allows it.
-
Diagnostic Properties: A new system of diagnostic properties provides a complete contextual understanding of the app's current authorization status and the function of Core Location API objects. This helps in identifying why updates or events might not be delivered as expected.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the session chapters:
