requestLocation triggering didUpdateLocation multiple times

Forums > iOS

I have some code which call locationManager.requestLocation(). My understanding is that should only get the location once, but I am actually seeing where it is calling didUpdateLocations twice in some instances. Is this expected behavior or is my understanding of requestLocation incorrect. I am trying to have a button which the user can press, it will get their location, and then push a new VC. I saw it would push to two VCs. I could only replicate this on a device, and not in the simulator.

Quick update, this only happens when I set .desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters. If I don't set desired accuracy it only triggers one time.
