preOpenCard not running on iPhoneX simulator

I'm having a strange issue with a mobile app - on the 11.2 simulator a preOpenCard handler doesn't seem to run on the iPhoneX simulator but does with other devices. What might be stopping this handler from running on the X simulator but not on others? Any ideas? Strangely, when I make a barebo

Re: finding location on mobile device

Note that you may not get a value immediately from your location services subsystem so if you find there's nothing there, then try starting up the sensor in openCard or openStack, wait some time and then use the button to get the current location. Hope that makes sense (and works for you). Or
