This tiny chip in the phone will tell you exactly where the user is in the World. It's amazing what you can do with this.Moreover, Apple has made this very easy for us to use. We can get a user's exact location in latitude and longitude and show things on a map wherever we want. To learn this new skill, we will be creating a Pokémon Go clone.Pokémon Go is a popular iOS game that lets users catch digital Pokémon by traveling in the real world. We will be creating a simplified version of this to teach you how to work with maps in iOS and also how to use locations.The code bundle for this video course is available at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Working-with-Maps-and-Locations-in-iOS-Apps
