Question

i am currently developing an app that requires location from the start. I have a method that checks if location updates are up, but even when GPS is turned up I cant ensure a Location Update when the app starts. How can I ensure a fresh location update when my app starts?

Answer 1

i am currently developing an app that requires location from the start.

That is a design flaw in your app. Please redesign your app to take into account that:

• the user may have GPS disabled, or
• the user may not have used GPS recently, so it will take some time to acquire a fix, or
• the user may not be in a location where GPS signals are available (e.g., inside a large building)

How can I ensure a fresh location update when my app starts?

You can’t.
