Not sending data upon restart #9

Open tacman opened 10 years ago

tacman commented 10 years ago

I've heard there is an iOS issue only regrading location service apps running in the background. Upon restart they don't automatically start location services. This seems to be happening with Traccar 1.3 for iOS, but works fine on Android. Is there a way to set it to start when the phone boots up?

Apple allows only VOIP apps to be started automatically at boot.

This would be a good feature, along with keeping the app running even when closed. I know that Apple's way of handling apps in their store is garbage, so it's understandable if you're not able to do so.

Unfortunately it's impossible. To be able to start at boot we need to declare VOIP permission and Apple would never approve the app because we don't use permission for its main intent.

Shucks, that's what I figured... Thanks anyway!
