AppoxeeLocationManager.shared()?.delegate = self AppoxeeLocationManager.shared()?.logLevel = 1 AppoxeeLocationManager.shared()?.enableLocationMonitoring() } } //this methods will be triggered if the app is opened while user enter or exit from location func locationManager(_ manager: AppoxeeLocationManager, didFailWithError error: Error?) { NSLog("Location Error:", error.debugDescription) } func locationManager(_ manager: AppoxeeLocationManager, didExitGeoRegion geoRegion: CLCircularRegion) { //perform something on exit event } func locationManager(_ manager: AppoxeeLocationManager, didEnterGeoRegion geoRegion: CLCircularRegion) { //perform something on enter event } |
