Is it possible to monitor heading / course after triggering CLRegion?

I mean i would like this to happen :

1 - monitor exiting a region 2 - when the region triggers , i would like to know ex: if the user exiting this region is going North or South and trigger an specific notification based on that ...

Solution

  • Yes, you can start monitoring for heading updates using CLLocationManager.

     if CLLocationManager.headingAvailable() {
       manager.headingFilter = 5
       manager.startUpdatingHeading()
}

    then the CLLocationManager's delegate will provide heading updates via:

    func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager,
                     didUpdateHeading newHeading: CLHeading)
