Are you having issues with your location aware Phonegap app on iOS 8? I did too. My first attempt to deploy an existing app through Xcode on an iOS 8 device did not work. The application would not recognize my iPhone location.<\/p>\n

Here is the quick solution:
\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. In Xcode click on your app name in\u00a0the sidebar<\/li>\n
  2. Click the\u00a0Build Phases\u00a0<\/strong>tab<\/li>\n
  3. Expand the\u00a0Compile Sources\u00a0<\/strong>section<\/li>\n
  4. Click the +\u00a0<\/b>sign and add\u00a0CDVLocation.m\u00a0<\/strong>to the list of sources<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    That should do the trick. If not, try reinstalling the plugin:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. In Terminal navigate to the project folder<\/li>\n
    2. cordova plugin rm org.apache.cordova.geolocation<\/li>\n
    3. cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.geolocation<\/li>\n
    4. cordova build<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you still have issues after this you need to create a new cordova project<\/a>, add all of the plugins, copy all resources (www folder, splash screens, and icons) and rebuild.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
