[Interest] Qt Positioning on iOS?

[ekke]

you should add something like this into your info.plist:

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>

<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME)usesLocationtogetWeatherDataforcurrentLocation</string>

<key>“NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription”</key>

<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME)usesLocationtogetWeatherDataforcurrentLocation</string>
