SwiftUI Map: is it possible to add an inset to the map visible rectangle?
In UIKit, we can add an insets to a MKMapView with setVisibleMapRect to have additional space around a specified MKMapRect. It's useful for UIs like Apple Maps or FlightyApp (see first screenshot attached). This means we can have a modal sheet above the map but still can see all the content added to the map. I'm trying to do the same for a SwiftUI Map (on iOS 17) but I can't find a way to do it: see screenshot 2 below. Is it possible to obtain the same result or should I file a feedback for an improvement?

Indoor Mapping
If I enroll in Indoor Maps, and provide Apple with detailed wi-fi positioning from the building, will iOS users inside that building get more accurate GPS results? I mean, will Apple use the data we provided to give better positioning? Or only if I'm using the MapKit (we already have an interface built, and would NOT be using Apple's).

How do I attach a pop-up menu to a location marker on Apple Maps?
I am new to app development and programming, so may have to use non-technical terminology to explain what im asking here..... The app I am developing is based around the map feature.Once a user has shown their current location on the map, I would like the app to display different pins in the vicinity of the user, once the user selects one of the pins (representing another location on the map), how would I display a custom designed pop up menu to appear, that will display info and an image about the location that has been selected?Look forward to the replies!

Businesses in Maps
When a business in Apple Maps has the wrong information such as address, postal code, there is a place to report an issue. After the issue is submitted, how long does it take to verify the new information and what steps are taken to check to see if it's accurate?

Guide to develop HomeKit Accessories
Hello,can anyone make a guide for developing HomeKit accessories? The HAP spec. just goes over my head, and the other resources are basically useless. I am trying to make accessories with a basic understanding of OOP concepts(about 3 years in school so far(I'm in the 11th grade)). I would like a complete guide from the hardware selection all the way to the coding and setup. thank you. and I am not talking about HomeBridge and the like, I am interested in developing accessories the official way that apple recommends

Question about coding style guide at Apple with continue and break keywords
Hi there! I recently got into a discussion with my Java professor. In her style guide she specifically mentions to never use the break or continue keywords in loops as they are, according to her, outdated and unviable. I have tried to prove by counter example when they are more useful than alternatives, without success. This has gotten me wondering if these keywords are actually outdated, I am still a student after all. So I wanted to know from someone at Apple if using break or continue is forbidden, discouraged or fine to use (specifically in java but general guidelines are also fine) and why? Any answer from a current or former Apple employee would help me greatly to have an insight into how the industry handles these keywords and I thank you in advance for your response. If there is a better place to ask this please direct me towards that.

Map In TabView
In SwitUI when using a map within a tabview the tab bar color is translucent when the map tab is selected. All of the other tabs the tab bar is opaque. In the view that contains the map, if the map is commented out the tab display is opaque, only when the map is displayed. I have an init in the tabview to set the tab bar parameters: // Set Tab Bar appearance let tabbarAppearance = UITabBarAppearance() tabbarAppearance.configureWithOpaqueBackground() tabbarAppearance.backgroundColor = .blue UITabBar.appearance().standardAppearance = tabbarAppearance UITabBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = tabbarAppearance In the view with the map I use a ZStack to set the entire screen color: ZStack(alignment: Alignment(horizontal: .center, vertical: .top)) { Color(.blue) .ignoresSafeArea(.all) .foregroundColor(.black) VStack(alignment: .center, spacing: 5) { Spacer() Map() Spacer() } } I've tried using .padding(), frame, removing ignoresSafeArea but the tab b

Map directions
My app displays a map, and tapping it goes to the Maps app to give directions. My question is, where does it get the start and end points for the journey? On my map, I put two annotations. Does it go from the green pin to the red pin, from the first annotation to the second, or what? I'd also like to specify walking directions, but there does not seem to be a way to do that.

Apple maps trail / local path only becomes visible on very close zoom
I'm using apple maps to build a feature so users can create and save running/cycling/hiking routes. Currently the map only shows trails and similar local paths after zooming in to what is basically an extreme level. I want the trails and local paths to be more visible on a further, broader level of zoom. APPLE MAPS JS EX: https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/Screenshot_2024-10-23_at_10.52.17AM.png https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/Screenshot_2024-10-23_at_10.52.04AM.png APPLE MAPS iOS EX: https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/IMG_9DDF5C9A320D-1.jpeg Also strange that on iOS the path is visible while more zoomed out whereas JS does not. Please advise how to show these map items at a broader zoom.

Reply to Anyone else seeing gps problems on iPhoneX with ios12
I was able to get Apple Maps GPS working again by first closing Apple Maps and then opening Google Maps for example. Once Google Maps found my exact location I was able to close Google Maps and reuse Apple Maps. Strange..
