I am developing one app, i would like to know about location manager that will it work when user remove the app from background in iOS 7 and above?

I am using this delegate method: -(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations;

Will it get called when the app is removed from background?

The distance filter i have set is 50 meters with desiredAccuracy of NearestHundredMeters.

Regards, Aamir

If you would like a function to run in background simply go to AppDelegate and place your code block in the "applicationDidEnterBackground" function AppDelegate Location
