Apple changes the way GPS works in iOS 7.1

  Starting with iOS 7 the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), changed the way location services work, so that if we close an application in the background, we deactivate the monitoring of our position. Unfortunately, this change affected quite a large number of titles App Store, they operate on the basis of this monitoring, having enough users who rely on it. In an attempt to force Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), to solve the problem, the developers of a large number of titles they sent the company a joint letter asking them to cancel the changes and it seems they were successful with their requests.

  Starting with iOS beta 7.1 5 the Apple company changed the way location services work, so that if we close an application in the background, we will no longer disable location monitoring. Now the titles that use this system will continue to monitor the location of the users and transmit information to the services based on which they operate, the users needing this functionality for various reasons. The bad part of this system is that we do not know exactly which creations use it and when we are monitored, especially if we have a blocked iDevice.
