Answer 1

You can use requestAlwaysAuthorization instead of requestWhenInUseAuthorization on CLLocationManager (and provide the related NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription in the info.plist file), and then it will not appear either.

Answer 2

It is not possible as Apple reminds user that the respective application using his location in background mode. It concerns with privacy policy by apple.
