Summary


Congratulations, you're now an iBeacon guru. In this chapter, we completed our knowledge of CLBeaconRegion and its properties, which affect background behaviors such as notifyEntryStateOnDisplay and notifyOnEntry.

We discussed the limitations of functionality when our app is activated by an OS when entering a region, and why we shouldn't range beacons in the background.

We also discovered how we can bring the passbook passes to the front of the lock screen using iBeacons.

In the next chapter, we'll expand our knowledge of what to do when we leave a region, and we'll discuss home automation and the implications of iBeacon upon that field.
