How does it handle location permissions?

The skill provides clear guidance on required Info.plist keys and the logic needed for requesting 'When In Use' versus 'Always' authorization flows.

Can I use this for watchOS or visionOS development?

Yes, the skill includes platform-specific considerations, including watchOS background sessions and visionOS location service limitations.

Does this skill support the latest iOS 17 features?

Yes, it prioritizes modern Swift concurrency patterns like CLLocationUpdate.liveUpdates() and CLMonitor introduced in iOS 17.

Does it help with battery life optimization?

Absolutely. It includes best practices for power-efficient services like Visit monitoring and Significant-change location services to minimize battery drain.
