GMSNavigationSession

@interface GMSNavigationSession : NSObject

This class provides a set of related objects that can be used to programmatically control a navigation session.

  • Whether or not navigation on this session is started.

    A session cannot be started unless terms and conditions have previously been accepted.

    Starting a session is a prerequisite for activating guidance on the session’s navigator, or for starting location updates from the session’s road-snapped location provider.

    A started session receives location from CoreLocation as determined by the application’s location authorization. Your app can temporarily stop the Navigation SDK from requesting location updates. For instance, it might do this in order to reduce battery usage in a period when location updates are known to be unnecessary.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var isStarted: Bool { get set }

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic, getter=isStarted) BOOL started;
  • The travel mode for this session.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var travelMode: GMSNavigationTravelMode { get set }

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic) GMSNavigationTravelMode travelMode;
  • An instance of GMSLocationSimulator which can be used to simulate locations for this session, or nil if terms and conditions have not been accepted.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var locationSimulator: GMSLocationSimulator? { get }

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic, readonly, nullable) GMSLocationSimulator *locationSimulator;
  • The instance of GMSNavigator managing this navigation session, or nil if terms and conditions have not been accepted.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var navigator: GMSNavigator? { get }

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic, readonly, nullable) GMSNavigator *navigator;
  • The road-snapped location provider for this session, or nil if terms and conditions have not been accepted.

    Declaration

    @property (nonatomic, readonly, nullable) GMSRoadSnappedLocationProvider *roadSnappedLocationProvider;
