# setShowsUserHeading(_:)

Sets whether the map shows the user heading.

```
func setShowsUserHeading(_ showsUserHeading: Bool)
```

## Discussion

By default, the map doesn’t show the user’s heading.

> Note:
> Calling this method has no effect unless the map is showing the user’s location. For more information, see ``doc://com.apple.watchkit/documentation/WatchKit/WKInterfaceMap/setShowsUserLocation(_:)``.
