Well done on completing your first real iBeacon powered app, which actually differentiates between beacons. In this chapter, we covered the real usage of UUID, major, and minor values. We also got introduced to the Core Location framework including the CLLocationManager
class and its important delegate methods. We introduced the CLRegion
class and discussed the permissions required when using CLLocationManager
.
Finally, we put this all together with offers from our Matey's store.
In the next chapter, we're going to broadcast offers using our iOS device as an iBeacon transmitter.
