At no point is there a call for requestWhenInUseAuthorization or requestAlwaysAuthorization for ios8 and ios9 support. I think this should either be asked upon startDetection and/or should be exposed to the developer to call whenever they see fit so that they can ask for it at the right time in their UX.

Either way this issue makes it really weird to get Core Location updates because we either have to edit your Pod or ask for it manually on an unused Location Manager instance.

Hi, Thank you so much for your hard work.

I am trying to detect change in Activity type while the app is in background. It works perfectly in foreground but doesn't work in background. I have enabled background location update mode.

Thank you for your help.

In your documentation you write [SOLocationManager sharedInstance].allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates = YES;

But I can't find this in code? The background mode is especially important for me.

Currently we cannot do background location updates with SOMotionDetector on iOS9

We have to expose a way to set the allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates property of the SOLocationManager's instance of CLLocationManager to YES or NO.

Hi,

First things first, THANK YOU ! for this great library. Now to the question..., I am initiating SOMotionDetector in my App Delegate (didFinishLaunchingWithOptions). But when my app goes into background state, I do not get alerts.

My App Delegate --> didFinishLaunchingWithOptions contains:

... ... ... ... [SOMotionDetector sharedInstance].motionTypeChangedBlock = ^(SOMotionType motionType) { [myClass MotionTypeChanged: motionType]; }; ... ... ... ...

Is it something the software doesn't support or am I doing it wrong ?

When the app goes into the background, the OS will eventually pause location updates even if pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically is false if it thinks the app doesn't need updates (not moving). This is all good but sometimes you need to take action on that. Especially because it doesn't seem to ever resume without bringing the app into the foreground.

On older devices, such as iPhone 4S, repeatedly calling [CMMotionActivityManager isActivityAvailable] causes an unnecessary performance overhead. As this value will never change, this fix involves saving the result so that the system call is only made once.

The use of a single delegate to receive callbacks doesn't really fit well with at singleton pattern. One option to remedy this is to change from a protocol for callbacks to notifications. Another option would be to remove the singleton part.

Enable to install library from Carthage. Xcode project created using XcodeTool:

XcodeTool template --name="ComponentCrossPlatform" --target=SOMotionDetector

Cartfile

github "arturdev/SOMotionDetector"

Is it possible to detect the timeslot when the user was travelling?

I'm only interested in the start and end time of my travel. And this even if the app is not running, like the Moves-app is doing.

Hi,

In the first installation the application is frozen by CoreMotion.

Include the new "Privacy - Motion Usage Description" key in my iOS app .plist???

Congratulations for the project. Thank you very much.

Would you mind if i ask a question not relating to SOMotionDetector? Now i`m using M7 in ios to detect the status of device. I get a trouble that device sometimes detects wrong status. For example, when i shake my device the status turns into "in the car", while im not in the car. So can you show me how to decrease wrong detection. Thank you very much.
