Description

Hello All, I'm always getting false with the use of Ti.Geolocation.locationServicesEnabled on android. Tested this on Android device with os version 6 & 7. Turning Location services on or off returns same value. Steps i was performing to get location: 1) checking for location permission using hasLocationPermissions() — This works perfect 2) Check whether location service is On/Off using Ti.Geolocation.locationServicesEnabled – Returns false always. I'm using Titanium SDK: 6.3.0 Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, Did you provide runtime permission for location service?

Suraj Datta 2017-11-27

Hello, I've used following code for getting runtime permission.

   
   if(Ti.Geolocation.hasLocationPermissions()){
   // if permission is true --> check for location toggle true/false using Ti.Geolocation.locationServicesEnabled
   }else{
   // if permission is false --> request for permission using Ti.Geolocation.requestLocationPermissions()
   Ti.Geolocation.requestLocationPermissions(Ti.Geolocation.AUTHORIZATION_ALWAYS, function(e){
   
   });
   }

Thanks.
