Unrelated from this topic but coming from mapbox where everything had a mapbox_id i feel like some things like localities like "columbus, Ohio" should still have a place id but maybe the muid serves that purpose idk and just something i should account for. Lastly on my mind is how to manage rate limiting since im just giving the same mapbox js token to all the clients. Of course for server api I can manage my own system for rate limiting logged in users a bit easier but not sure about mapkit js though I can only dream my project is big enough i need to even worry about that lol.

Hey, I have a problem. I was using MKMapView in my app, and in the view where I had a background at the top of the screen, in the example it was Color.red, it extended all the way to the top of the screen. Now, I wanted to switch to the newer Map and I'm seeing an issue because I'm getting a navigation bar that cuts off my color as I indicated in the picture. Does anyone know why this is happening and if there's another way to achieve this? Steps to reproduce: Change MapView() to Map() to see difference import SwiftUI import MapKit @main struct TestAppApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { ScrollView(.vertical) { Color.red .padding(.top, -200) .frame(height: 200) MapView().frame(minHeight: 300) // change this line to Map } .navigationTitle("Title") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.large) } } } private typealias ViewControllerRepresentable = UIViewControllerRepresentable struct MapView: ViewControllerRepresentable { typealias ViewController = UIViewController class Controller: ViewController { var mapView: MKMapView { guard let tempView = view as?

I'm on MacOS 15 Beta and Xcode 16 Beta. Running iOS 18 Beta on a 15 Pro Max. I'm leveraging the .mapItemDetailSheet(item: input) option to pull up a sheet that displays the Place Card for a selection made from a List of places. This is working great on my iPhone 15 Pro Max and my iPad Pro 13. I also have the Mac Catalyst option added under: Project \ General \ Supported Destinations If I launch the app from Xcode via the play button, the app functions fine on my MacBook Pro and I get logs in Xcode, etc. However, if stop the session in Xcode and attempt to run the same app on its own on my MacBook Pro, the mapItemDetailSheet does not populate with any information. Anyone have ideas on where the disconnect could be? Why would the sheet populate with data when ran from Xcode but not when ran on its own? Again, it runs fine on the iPhone and iPad. Any ideas would be helpful and appreciated.

I'm using MapKit for SwiftUI and having an issue when conditionally rendering MapPolygons or MapPolylines. Removing these overlays after a previous render causes them to flicker sporadically in their previous location when a user zooms or moves the camera. The relevant code is as follows: Map(position: $cameraPosition, scope: mapScope) { MapPolygon(coordinates: selectedTileVertices) .stroke( Color(red: 1.0, green: 1.0, blue: 1.0, opacity: isTileSelected ? 1.0 : 0.0), style: StrokeStyle(lineWidth: 5, lineJoin: .round)) .foregroundStyle(selectedTile.color.opacity(0.0)) } A polygon is rendered around a coordinate that a user selects. Upon selecting a new coordinate, a new polygon should render and the old be completely removed from the map. In practice, the new polygon is rendered and the old initially removed, but upon zooming the old polygon flickers in and out of appearance. At some zoom levels the old polygon is completely visible again. The crux of the problem sees to be that I am using .mapStyle(.imagery(elevation: .realistic)). Upon switching to .hybrid all flickering behavior is gone. The flickering becomes worse when doing a lot of zooming/camera movement while the old polygon is rendered and then swapping to a new polygon, and is largely nonexistent if swapping to a new polygon at the same zoom level. I imagine this has something to do with the extra rendering optimizations for satellite imagery. Any help resolving this issue would be appreciated.

In the apple map of some areas, there will be a very realistic real-life 3D map. And now I want to call it through 3d in visionOS (like model3d). How can I call it? Note: What I ask for is not to have an effect similar to 3d on a flat screen like in iOS, but to display the USDZ model in visionOS.

when I click on a mapview pin, a PopupView comes up with some text and a button.

Hi, I have a SwiftUI Map with a set of three annotations. These annotations move around, and I would like to animate their movement from one coordinate to another, but I'm not finding a way to do that. I've tried using withAnimation { } when setting my array of Identifiable models that back the Annotations, and I've tried adding the .animation(.default, annotationModels) modifier to my Map object (where annotationModels is the array that backs my Annotations). The animation modifier doesn't work on Annotation structs, and it doesn't work if I add the animation modifier within the Annotation's view either. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to animate the coordinates of annotations using a SwiftUI Map? Does the problem have to do with the fact that I have an array of these annotations?

Hello, There are some countries, with political conflicts on borders, does MapKit JS support displaying the map depending on the point of view of the region ? if yes, how technically is done (like adding an attribute region on request params or something else) ? Thanks

I have indoor map and I want to draw path between two route location ex. from A to B I want to draw ARKit based Arrow path in ios Application. Currently I am using ARAnchor to achieve this but challenges is if A to B is 10 meter and I am adding Nodes on each one meter so instead of 10 different nodes i am getting single Arrow nodes showing all 10 in it. I am using below code. // Below Code from where I am calling addArpath function if let lat1 = mCurrentPosition?.latitude, let long1 = mCurrentPosition?.longitude { let latEnd = steplocation.latitude let longEnd = steplocation.longitude // if let lastLat = arrpath.last?.latitude,let lastLong = arrpath.last?.longitude,let lastAltitude = arrpath.last?.altitude{ let userLocation = CLLocation(latitude: lat1, longitude: long1) let endLocation = CLLocation(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(CLLocationDegrees(latEnd), CLLocationDegrees(longEnd)), altitude: CLLocationDistance(steplocation.altitude), horizontalAccuracy: CLLocationAccuracy(5), verticalAccuracy: CLLocationAccuracy(0), course: CLLocationDirection(-1), speed: CLLocationSpeed(5), timestamp: Date()) let heading = getHeadingForDirectionFromCoordinate(from: userLocation, to: endLocation) let lon1 = degreesToRadians(long1) //DegreesToRadians(long1) let lon2 = degreesToRadians(longEnd); //DegreesToRadians(longEnd); let lat2 = degreesToRadians(latEnd); let dLon = lon2 - lon1 let y = sin(dLon) * cos(lat2); yVal = yVal + y // let distanceToendpoint = calculateDistance(lat: endLocation.coordinate.latitude, long: endLocation.coordinate.longitude) let distvalue = Int(distance) + Int(pathlength) distance += CGFloat(distvalue) for i in stride(from: 0, to: distance, by:1) { print("current loop iteration is:" ,i) let headingValue = heading - self.heading zValue = zValue + headingValue distanceVal = CGFloat(i) + distanceVal zGlobal = zValue // Calling addARPathtoLocation addARPathtoLocation(stepLocation:endLocation,zvalue: zValue, yvalue: yVal, distance:Float(i), direction: manuoverType) } // } } // MARK: - ARSessionDelegate func renderer(_ renderer: SCNSceneRenderer, didAdd node: SCNNode, for anchor: ARAnchor) { guard !(anchor is ARPlaneAnchor) else { return } let sphereNode = generateArrowNodes(anchor: anchor) DispatchQueue.main.async { node.addChildNode(sphereNode) } } //create ARAnchor to add to nodes func generateArrowNodes(anchor: ARAnchor) -> SCNNode { let imageMaterial = SCNMaterial() imageMaterial.isDoubleSided = true imageMaterial.diffuse.contents = UIImage(named: "blueArrow") let plane = SCNPlane(width:0.5, height:0.5) plane.materials = [imageMaterial] plane.firstMaterial?.isDoubleSided = true let blueNode = SCNNode(geometry: plane) blueNode.name = "blueNode" blueNode.position = SCNVector3(x:Float(zGlobal), y:0, z:Float(distanceVal)) blueNode.eulerAngles.x = -.pi / 2 blueNode.eulerAngles.y -= Float(CGFloat(CGFloat.pi/4*6)) return blueNode } func addARPathtoLocation(stepLocation: CLLocation, zvalue: CGFloat, yvalue: CGFloat, distance:Float, direction:VMEManeuverType) { // give you the depth of anything ARKit has detected guard let query = sceneView.raycastQuery(from: sceneView.center , allowing: .estimatedPlane, alignment: .any) else { return } let results = sceneView.session.raycast(query) guard let hitResult = results.first else { print("No surface found") return } // Add ARAnchor to Scene let anchor = ARAnchor(transform: hitResult.worldTransform) sceneView.session.add(anchor: anchor) } func radiansToDegrees(_ radians: Double) -> Double { return (radians) * (180.0 / Double.pi) } func degreesToRadians(_ degrees: Double) -> Double { return (degrees) * (Double.pi / 180.0) } func getHeadingForDirectionFromCoordinate(from: CLLocation, to: CLLocation) -> Double { let fLat = degreesToRadians(from.coordinate.latitude) let fLng = degreesToRadians(from.coordinate.longitude) let tLat = degreesToRadians(to.coordinate.latitude) let tLng = degreesToRadians(to.coordinate.longitude) let deltaL = tLng - fLng let x = sin(deltaL) * cos(tLng) //cos(tLat) * sin(deltaL) let y = cos(fLat) * sin(tLat) - sin(fLat) * cos(tLat) * cos(deltaL) let bearing = atan2(x,y) let bearingInDegrees = bearing.toDegrees print("Bearing Degrees :",bearingInDegrees) // sanity check // let degree = radiansToDegrees(atan2(sin(tLng-fLng)*cos(tLat), cos(fLat)*sin(tLat)-sin(fLat)*cos(tLat)*cos(tLng-fLng))) if bearingInDegrees >= 0 { return bearingInDegrees } else { return bearingInDegrees + 360 } }

Hi all, It wasn't extensively covered in the "Unlock the power of places with MapKit" at WWDC, but is it possible to add your own views to the mapItemDetailAccessory? The default view is great, but I would like to add a button for opening a new window showing another view. The documentation is rather limited at the moment so I thought I would ask here. Thanks in advance.

I'm creating an app where I'm recreating how Apple Maps shows the user location button - i.e, in a stack with a background. I'd like the MapUserLocationButton to follow the styling that it does in Apple Maps (i.e., when locked to the user location, it switches to a filled icon, instead of colouring the background. Is there a way to do this?

I have been developing an app that includes some pinned locations. These are displayed on a map, and currently have the standard pins and SF Symbol pins. A few of the locations have a special symbol on Apple Maps, but the same symbol is not avalable in SF Symbols. I was wondering if it is possible to use the pins, other than the standard red, from Apple Maps.

I'm on MacOS 15 Beta and Xcode 16 Beta. Running iOS 18 Beta on a 15 Pro Max. I'm leveraging the .mapItemDetailSheet(item: input) option to pull up a sheet that displays the Place Card for a selection made from a List of places. What I'm seeing is that the first tap fails to pull up the sheet and it auto closes pretty much immediately. But then loads correctly on the second tap. Other times it will not auto close, but simply fail to load the item details in the sheet. Again, though, if I close the sheet and tap a second time it loads without issue. I'm posting to get some feedback as to whether this is most likely caused by bad code (I'm very new to this) or if it is known behavior and due to the Beta software. Any insight from the community would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Hi. I want to make iOS app that when use camera AR, it can show someplace around me have annotations. ARGeoAnchor something but I don't have any idea. Can anyone give me some keywords? I can use Mapkit to search but don't know how to map it in AR.

I'm looking at the new beta features for MapKit in SwiftUI, does anyone know if it's possible to create a map annotation callout or popover from a custom view?

I hope to use SwiftUI and MapKit to achieve the effect of a globe view when zooming out on the map. The code works in Xcode’s simulator and Simulator, but when running on my iPhone, it only zooms out to a flat world map. I haven’t found anyone else encountering the same issue, so I’d like to ask where the problem might be. Below is the simple code: import SwiftUI import MapKit struct GlobalTest: View { var body: some View { Map(position: .constant(.automatic), interactionModes: [.all, .pan, .pitch, .rotate, .zoom]) { } .mapStyle(.hybrid(elevation: .realistic, pointsOfInterest: .including([.park]), showsTraffic: false)) } } #Preview { GlobalTest() } I have also tried setting the camera properties, but it still doesn’t work. My phone is an iPhone 15 Pro Max, running iOS 17.5.1, and I am in mainland China. The Xcode version is the latest. If anyone understands the reason, please let me know. This is very important to me, and I would be very grateful!

Edit: The issue was resolved. It's back up. I was streaming the new MapKit Places video, and it suddenly stopped. It's now missing from the Developer app and website. Is this intentional?

Description: I am working on an iOS 17 app using Xcode 15 and SwiftUI. The app involves displaying points of interest (POIs) on a MapView based on user proximity and other factors such as hours of operation. The data for the POIs is stored in a JSON file, which I am trying to import and parse in the project. However, I have encountered several issues: Deprecation Errors: When attempting to use MapAnnotation, I receive deprecation warnings and errors. It seems that MapAnnotation has been deprecated in iOS 17, and I need to use the new Annotation API along with MapContentBuilder. RandomAccessCollection Conformance: Errors related to RandomAccessCollection conformance when using Map with SwiftUI. JSON Import and Parsing: I used Bundle.main.url(forResource: "locations", withExtension: "json") to load the JSON file but faced issues with correctly parsing and mapping the JSON data to my model objects. What I Need: Guidance on how to correctly use the new Annotation API and MapContentBuilder for displaying POIs on a MapView in iOS 17. Best practices for importing and parsing JSON files in SwiftUI, especially for dynamically updating the MapView based on user proximity and other criteria like hours of operation. Any relevant code snippets or examples would be greatly appreciated. Example of What We Tried Model: swift Copy code struct POI: Codable, Identifiable { let id: Int let name: String let latitude: Double let longitude: Double let hours: [String: String] } Loading JSON: swift Copy code func loadPOIs() -> [POI] { guard let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "locations", withExtension: "json"), let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url) else { return [] } let decoder = JSONDecoder() return (try? decoder.decode([POI].self, from: data)) ?? [] } Map View: swift Copy code import SwiftUI import MapKit struct ContentView: View { @State private var pois: [POI] = loadPOIs() @State private var region = MKCoordinateRegion( center: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 40.7128, longitude: -74.0060), span: MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 0.05, longitudeDelta: 0.05) ) var body: some View { Map(coordinateRegion: $region, annotationItems: pois) { poi in MapAnnotation(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: poi.latitude, longitude: poi.longitude)) { VStack { Text(poi.name) Circle().fill(Color.red).frame(width: 10, height: 10) } } } } } Issues Encountered: MapAnnotation is deprecated. Errors related to RandomAccessCollection conformance. Any advice or solutions for these issues would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Please note that for this app to be able show you your location on the map you need to enable it to ask for permission to track the user's location, in the project's targets' info: Here's also a video that illustrates the lag: https://youtube.com/shorts/DSl-umGxs20?feature=share. That being said, if you run this SwiftUI app and allow it to track your location, tap the MapUserLocationButton and press the buttons at the bottom, you'll see that the map lags: import SwiftUI import MapKit import CoreLocation struct ContentView: View { let currentLocationManager = CurrentUserLocationManager() let mapLocationsManager = MapLocationsManager() @State private var mapCameraPosition: MapCameraPosition = .automatic var body: some View { Map( position: $mapCameraPosition ) .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { VStack { if mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches { Button("First button") { mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches = false } } Button("Second button") { mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches = true } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .padding() } .mapControls { MapUserLocationButton() } } } @Observable class MapLocationsManager { var shouldAllowSearches = false } // MARK: - Location related code - class CurrentUserLocationManager: NSObject { var locationManager: CLLocationManager? override init() { super.init() startIfNecessary() } func startIfNecessary() { if locationManager == nil { locationManager = .init() locationManager?.delegate = self } else { print(">> \(Self.self).\(#function): method called redundantly: locationManager had already been initialized") } } }; extension CurrentUserLocationManager: CLLocationManagerDelegate { func locationManagerDidChangeAuthorization(_ manager: CLLocationManager) { checkLocationAuthorization() } }; extension CurrentUserLocationManager { private func checkLocationAuthorization() { guard let locationManager else { return } switch locationManager.authorizationStatus { case .notDetermined: locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() case .restricted: print("Your location is restricted") case .denied: print("Go into setting to change it") case .authorizedAlways, .authorizedWhenInUse, .authorized: // locationManager.startUpdatingLocation() break @unknown default: break } } } I've also tried in a UIKit app (by just embedding ContentView in a view controller), with the same results: import UIKit import MapKit import SwiftUI import CoreLocation class ViewController: UIViewController { let currentLocationManager = CurrentUserLocationManager() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() currentLocationManager.startIfNecessary() let hostingController = UIHostingController( rootView: MapView() ) addChild(hostingController) hostingController.view.frame = view.bounds hostingController.view.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight] view.addSubview(hostingController.view) hostingController.didMove(toParent: self) } } extension ViewController { struct MapView: View { let mapLocationsManager = MapLocationsManager() @State private var mapCameraPosition: MapCameraPosition = .automatic var body: some View { Map( position: $mapCameraPosition ) .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { VStack { if mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches { Button("First button") { mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches = false } } Button("Second button") { mapLocationsManager.shouldAllowSearches = true } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .padding() } .mapControls { MapUserLocationButton() } } } } extension ViewController { @Observable class MapLocationsManager { var shouldAllowSearches = false } } class CurrentUserLocationManager: NSObject { var locationManager: CLLocationManager? func startIfNecessary() { if locationManager == nil { locationManager = .init() locationManager?.delegate = self } else { print(">> \(Self.self).\(#function): method called redundantly: locationManager had already been initialized") } } }; extension CurrentUserLocationManager: CLLocationManagerDelegate { func locationManagerDidChangeAuthorization(_ manager: CLLocationManager) { checkLocationAuthorization() } }; extension CurrentUserLocationManager { private func checkLocationAuthorization() { guard let locationManager else { return } switch locationManager.authorizationStatus { case .notDetermined: locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() case .restricted: print("Your location is restricted") case .denied: print("Go into setting to change it") case .authorizedAlways, .authorizedWhenInUse, .authorized: // locationManager.startUpdatingLocation() break @unknown default: break } } } If you don't center the map in the user's location, you might see an occasiona lag, but it seems to me that this only happens once. How do I avoid these lags altogether? Xcode 15.4
