Checking for geolocation access
Applications that make use of a device's location data must be granted permission by the user. The user is prompted when an app attempts to access location data for the first time. Devices running iOS 4 or above will remember this choice, whereas older versions of iOS will request access each time the app is launched. In addition, access privileges can be changed at any time from the device's settings.
It is important that your app can detect the availability of geolocation data, and also respond to permission changes at runtime. Let us see how this is done.
