copied!<p>The answer of RedBlueThing worked quite well for me. Here is some sample code of how I did it.</p> <h3>Header</h3> <pre><code>#import <UIKit/UIKit.h> #import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h> @interface yourController : UIViewController <CLLocationManagerDelegate> { CLLocationManager *locationManager; } @end </code></pre> <h3>MainFile</h3> <p>In the init method</p> <pre><code>locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init]; locationManager.delegate = self; locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone; locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest; [locationManager startUpdatingLocation]; </code></pre> <p>Callback function</p> <pre><code>- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation { NSLog(@"OldLocation %f %f", oldLocation.coordinate.latitude, oldLocation.coordinate.longitude); NSLog(@"NewLocation %f %f", newLocation.coordinate.latitude, newLocation.coordinate.longitude); } </code></pre> <h2>iOS 6</h2> <p>In iOS 6 the delegate function was deprecated. The new delegate is</p> <pre><code>- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations </code></pre> <p>Therefore to get the new position use</p> <pre><code>[locations lastObject] </code></pre> <h2>iOS 8</h2> <p>In iOS 8 the permission should be explicitly asked before starting to update location</p> <pre><code>locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init]; locationManager.delegate = self; locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone; locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest; if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 8.0) [self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization]; [locationManager startUpdatingLocation]; </code></pre> <p>You also have to add a string for the <a href="https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyReference/Articles/CocoaKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009251-SW26" rel="noreferrer"><code>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</code></a> or <a href="https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyReference/Articles/CocoaKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009251-SW26" rel="noreferrer"><code>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</code></a> keys to the app's Info.plist. Otherwise calls to <code>startUpdatingLocation</code> will be ignored and your delegate will not receive any callback.</p> <p>And at the end when you are done reading location call stopUpdating location at suitable place.</p> <pre><code>[locationManager stopUpdatingLocation]; </code></pre>
