I am trying to submit my app for review in Itunes Connect, but when I try to submit it I get an error:
To configure this app as an IOS routing app, upload a routing app
coverage file on the app's Version page in My Apps on iTunes Connect.
To configure your app as an IOS routing app, the app's Info.plist must
contain the MKDirectionsApplicationSupportedModes
key.
So in my project, in the Capabilities, the Maps is turned off. I do have the MapKit.framework in my project, as I do utilize the map, however I do not ever show routing information nor provide it in my app. Is the fact that this framework in my project causing this ITunes Connect error, and if so, how do I go about fixing it. And by fixing it, I want it to turn off routing.
My app is not made to provide routing information, nor do I want to set it as an iOS routing app.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am using XCode 6.
I figured it out. In my info plist there was a document type name of MKDirectionsRequest. Removing that solved the problem.
From the apple docs
(To use the features of the Map Kit framework, you must turn on the
Maps capability in your Xcode project.)
above the entire paragraph.(https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/LocationAwarenessPG/Introduction/Introduction.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009497)
Location-based information consists of two pieces: location services
and maps. Location services are provided by the Core Location
framework, which defines Objective-C interfaces for obtaining
information about the user’s location and heading (the direction in
which a device is pointing). Maps are provided by the Map Kit
framework, which supports both the display and annotation of maps
similar to those found in the Maps app. (To use the features of the
Map Kit framework, you must turn on the Maps capability in your Xcode
project.) Location services and maps are available on both iOS and OS
X.
Not sure but maybe you only need to turn on mapkit
In my info.plist I had to delete two entries:
1) the document you referenced above - MKDirectionsRequest
and
2) MKDirectionsApplicationSupportedModes - MKDirectionsModeCar which is called "Maps routing app supported modes"
I just faced this exact issue last week.
I had accidentally turned on Map capabilities and turned it off later. Like your case, this didn't fix the issue.
I believe what fixed it was removing MapKit from here.
I was trying other things at the time so try this and if this isn't it then I'll see if something else I changed fix this.
