iOSLocation.Enabled

Property (As Boolean )

aiOSLocation.Enabled = newBooleanValue
or
BooleanValue = aiOSLocation.Enabled

Supported on Mobile (iOS).

Default is False. Set Enabled to True so that the LocationChanged event is called at appropriate times. Set this to False when you do not need locations in order to not waste battery power.

Notes

Do not enable if AuthorizationState is AuthorizationStates.Restricted or AuthorizationStates.Denied.

Sample Code

You will typically use code like this in the Open event handler of your view to initialize iOSLocation:

If MyLocation.AuthorizationState = iOSLocation.AuthorizationStates.AuthorizedWhenInUse Then
// we've got our requested authorization state, start getting LocationChanged events
MyLocation.Enabled = True
Else
// we don't have authorization yet, so ask for it
MyLocation.RequestInUseAuthorization
End If
