Xcode 6 GM cannot simulate location with iOS 8 simulator

I set the location using Xcode's "Simulate Location" button and the iOS simulator "Debug> Location> Custom Location", it doesn't work. And Maps.app cannot get location either.

Of course I am updating the code for iOS 8 CLLocationManager. such as "requestAlwaysAuthorization" and "NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription"

Edit your schema,

  • On the Options tab, make sure you check Allow Placement.
  • Choose a default location (optional).
  • Reset Simulator content and settings. This works for me.


P / S: You may need to restart the Xcode IDE.

This is my workaround:



- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didFailWithError:(NSError *)error
{
    [self locationManager:manager didUpdateLocations:@[[[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:<#(CLLocationDegrees)#> longitude:<#(CLLocationDegrees)#>]]];
    return;

    // Something you should do when Xcode not crazy
}
