I'm new to Swift, I want to show user location on map, I added MKMapView, and added an outlet, here is my code:



import UIKit
import Foundation
import MapKit
import CoreLocation

class ViewController: UIViewController ,CLLocationManagerDelegate{

@IBOutlet weak var map: MKMapView!
let manager = CLLocationManager()

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {

let location = locations[0]

let span: MKCoordinateSpan = MKCoordinateSpanMake(0.01,0.01)
let myLocation:CLLocationCoordinate2D = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(location.coordinate.latitude, location.coordinate.longitude)
let region:MKCoordinateRegion = MKCoordinateRegionMake(myLocation, span)
map.setRegion(region, animated: true)
self.map.showsUserLocation = true
}

override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
manager.delegate = self
manager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
manager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
manager.startUpdatingLocation()

}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}


}


But when I run the app on the simulator it shows me some other location on the USA. But I'm from another place that is not even close to the USA.

  • Do you run it on your simulator on the computer?

  • Your code is correct if you build your app on a real device. But you need to set your location for simulator. In simulator top menu, select Debug, then find Location section and set a custom location

Your code is fine, that's because you run it on simulator, select Debug-->Simulate Location-->Choose some other location and you will see that location on the screen

    Because simulator use fake location for testing purpose. you can also change that location See in the image(https://i.stack.imgur.com/2GN7x.png).
    If you run on actual device it shows your current location.
