GeoLocationService keeps asking for permission on app launch

Hi.

I am invoking Device - GeoLocationService on my start page.

On device testing + Xcode simulator (IOS), the app keeps asking 2 times, every time I launch the app, to allow app using my location + 1 more time for startScreen.html to use my location.

Like this:

  • Launch app

  • AppName would like to use your location (OK/Don't allow)

  • ../xxx/startScreen.html would like to use your location (OK/Don't allow)

    This happens on every launch of app.

    How Can I avoid this? Saving this setting, so the app-user do not have to "allow" using location several times, every time app launches!?!

    Should be enough to allow this 1 time!?!

    Thanks!
    -Tom

Hi Tom,

Please check, perhaps you are invoking GeoLocation service several times.

You will need to test in xcode or on a device. In mobile preview, it only ask 1 time.

Hello!

You should call geolocation service on 'deviceready' event instead 'pageshow'
