Enable the My Location Button | Maps SDK for iOS

Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

The

button is displayed in the bottom right corner of the map view. When the user taps the button, the map pans to the user's current location.

Before you can try the sample code, you must configure your development environment. For more information, see Maps SDK for iOS code samples.

The Maps SDK for iOS sample app is available as a download archive from GitHub. Follow these steps to install and try the Maps SDK for iOS sample app.

1. Run git clone https://github.com/googlemaps-samples/maps-sdk-for-ios-samples.git to clone the samples repository into a local directory.

2. Open a terminal window, navigate to the directory where you cloned the sample files, and drill down into the GoogleMaps directory:

   Swift

   cd maps-sdk-for-ios-samples-main/GoogleMaps-Swift
   pod install
   open GoogleMapsSwiftDemos.xcworkspace

   Objective-C

   cd maps-sdk-for-ios-samples-main/GoogleMaps
   pod install
   open GoogleMapsDemos.xcworkspace

3. In Xcode, press the compile button to build the app with the current scheme. The build produces an error, prompting you to enter your API key in the SDKConstants.swift file for Swift orSDKDemoAPIKey.h file for Objective-C.
4. Get an API key from your project with the Maps SDK for iOS enabled.
5. Edit the SDKConstants.swift file for Swift orSDKDemoAPIKey.h file for Objective-C and paste your API key into the definition of either the apiKey or kAPIKey constant. For example: Swift

   static let apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"

   Objective-C

   static NSString *const kAPIKey = @"YOUR_API_KEY";

6. In the SDKConstants.swift file (Swift) orSDKDemoAPIKey.h file (Objective-C), remove the following line, because it's used to register the user-defined issue: Swift

   #error (Register for API Key and insert here. Then delete this line.)

   Objective-C

   #error Register for API Key and insert here.

7. Build and run the project. The iOS simulator window appears, showing a list of Maps SDK Demos.
8. Choose one of the options displayed, to experiment with a feature of the Maps SDK for iOS.
9. If prompted to allow GoogleMapsDemos to access your location, choose Allow.
