You need to add following into your projects Info.plist file

UIBackgroundModes "location"
NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription "your description"

UIBackgroundModes must be an array of strings, where one string is required - "location", so source code of Info.plist should look like:

...

<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
  <string>location</string>
</array>

...

<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>App requires background tracking</string>

...
