title: iOS vs Android Location tracking with precision and battery consumption
body: <p>I tried an Android device with GPS module OFF. I was driving in a car and horizontal accuracy was from <strong>50-300m</strong> which is accuracy that is OK with me. (triangulation + wi-fi)</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to build an iPhone application which uses as little battery as possible (application will be on the hole day). </p>
  
  <p>Thats why I would not like to use GPS. Will hundredMeters accuracy use GPS or it works with triangulation?</p>
  
  <pre><code>locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I also wonder how much is distanceFilter important to battery consumption? Is there a huge difference if it is set to <code>300m</code> or <code>1000m</code>?</p>
