CLLocationManager SignificantLocationChanges Force Refresh
I have an app that uses CLLocation manager and I need ability to force a location event to be delivered. Apple documentation states...
After returning a current location fix, the receiver generates update events only when a significant change in the user's location is detected. For example, it might generate a new event when the device becomes associated with a different cell tower. It does not rely on the value in the distanceFilter property to generate events. Calling this method several times in succession does not automatically result in new events being generated. Calling stopMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges in between, however, does cause a new initial event to be sent the next time you call this method.
So I read that as I can call stopMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges and then startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges and receive a location event, however, in practice this is not working. See code below (I've removed pieces so as to not disclose private reverse geo APIs). This is a wrapper class to combine reverse geo with CLLocationManager. In my demo app I am calling beginMonitoringSignificantChanges and then stopMonitoringSignificantChanges and I am only seeing -(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations called when I change locations or when I first install the app, not when I stop and start. Any thoughts?

Apparently, this works only if you re-init CLLocationManager each time too. The documentation does not seem to support that, but my testing certainly does. If someone has a better answer, I would love to hear it.
You are right. Only a re-init of the CLLocationManager will cause the SignificantLocationChanges update for to occur. If you need a fresh location update, then why not use standard location service? Using the standard you also get a much more accurate fix.
