iOS Google map SDK: Setting maxZoom level issue - ios

I notice when I set the max Zoom level of example to 19, the zoom go up to 20. I don't know why.
It's always 1 more zoom level than the one I set.
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:23.589571946369546
longitude:58.14204730042655
zoom:16];
self.mapView_.camera=camera;
self.mapView_.myLocationEnabled = YES;
self.mapView_.mapType = kGMSTypeHybrid;
self.mapView_.settings.compassButton = YES;
[self.mapView_ setMinZoom:5 maxZoom:19];
// Creates a marker in the center of the map.
GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(23.168520, 58.008163);
marker.map = self.mapView_;
// ------ add layer
// Implement GMSTileURLConstructor
// Returns a Tile based on the x,y,zoom coordinates, and the requested floor
GMSTileURLConstructor urls = ^(NSUInteger x, NSUInteger y, NSUInteger zoom) {
NSString *url = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://www.example.com/%tu/%tu/%tu.png", zoom, x, y];
NSLog(#"url=%#",url);
return [NSURL URLWithString:url];
};

How do you find out the maxZoom is 20? Which version of iOS Maps SDK you use?
I tried the sample hello map application from Google Maps' Github page with iOS Maps SDK version 1.9.1 and put the below code in the videDidLoad() method. It prints the correct max zoom which is 19.
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:23.589571946369546
longitude:58.14204730042655
zoom:16];
mapView_.camera=camera;
mapView_.myLocationEnabled = YES;
mapView_.mapType = kGMSTypeHybrid;
mapView_.settings.compassButton = YES;
// Create the GMSMapView with the camera position.
mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
[mapView_ setMinZoom:5 maxZoom:19];
NSLog(#"max zoom: %f", mapView_.maxZoom);

Not showing correct view after zooming on GMSMap

I have been using GMSMap in my app. I am showing current location in Map. But after zooming the Map it does not show city and state, also path is not visible in the map. I want to I have zooming on map and clear map in the present states and city's. Please assist me for my issue
I am used this code
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:22.6987 longitude:75.8817 zoom:0];
GMSMapView *mapView = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
mapView.myLocationEnabled = YES;
self.view = mapView;
// Creates a marker in the center of the map.
GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(22.6987, 75.8817);
marker.title = #"indore";
marker.snippet = #"India";
marker.map = mapView;
Now Show Look like please see ones

Embed Google Maps in UIView with correct Frame

In my iOS application, I have a parent mapViewController(UIView) to which I try to add to Google Maps subview by executing [self.mapViewContainer addSubview:mapView_];
While initialising the mapView_, I try to use the bounds of the container UIView, so that it utlisises the entire space by executing:
mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:self.mapViewContainer.bounds camera:camera];
While the map appears just fine, whenever I try to center the map on coordinate, the cordinate which is supposed to be centered is either at the bottom right, or bottom center, depending on potrait / landscape mode.
My impression is that the map extends beyond the intended margins, which I'm unable to fix.
Is there any way to easily accomplish what I'm trying to do. I have tried initialising mapView_ as
GMSMapView *mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
But that just displayed an empty screen.
You can place Google Map View in storyboard if possible.
If you want to do in code, avoid using frame, try use constraints.
following line google map not shown because you use CGRectZero.so that's why not display your google map.
GMSMapView *mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
This code work for me...you may be helped..
See my code...you show your google map in view controller.
GMSCameraPosition *camera ;
if ( UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad )
{
camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:<pass your latitude>
longitude:<pass your longitude>
zoom:17];
}
else
{
camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:<pass your latitude>
longitude:<pass your longitude>
zoom:16];
}
GMSMapView *mapView = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0, self.view.frame.size.width , self.view.frame.size.height) camera:camera];
mapView.myLocationEnabled = YES;
if ( UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad )
{
[mapView setMinZoom:17 maxZoom:23];
}
else
{
[mapView setMinZoom:16 maxZoom:20];
}
// [mapView setMinZoom:16 maxZoom:20];
// mapView.settings.indoorPicker =YES;
GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(<pass your latitude>,<pass your longitude>);
marker.appearAnimation = kGMSMarkerAnimationPop;
marker.title =#"Driver's location";
marker.icon = [UIImage imageNamed:#"GoogleIcon"];
marker.map = mapView;
[self.view addSubview:mapView];
[self.view insertSubview:self.btnRefresh aboveSubview:mapView];

iOS Google Maps: Coordinates Mismatch

One of our application's feature is to plot a location on the map, we will save it in our server and show it on the main screen of the application. We are using Google Maps and GMSMarker with draggable property set to YES. But there is a difference between the marked location and the coordinate obtained.
Code:
NSDictionary *signDict = self.imgLocationsArray[_currentIndex];
_toSaveLat = [signDict[TAG_SIGN_LAT] floatValue];
_toSaveLon = [signDict[TAG_SIGN_LONG] floatValue];
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:_toSaveLat longitude:_toSaveLon zoom:GOOGLE_MAPS_DEFAULT_ZOOM_LEVEL];
self.dragDropMap = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height) camera:camera];
[self.dragDropMap setMapType:kGMSTypeNormal];
[self.dragDropMap setDelegate:self];
self.dragDropMap.myLocationEnabled = YES;
[self.view addSubview:self.dragDropMap];
if (draggingMarker) {
draggingMarker.map = nil;
draggingMarker = nil;
}
draggingMarker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
draggingMarker.icon = [GMSMarker markerImageWithColor:[UIColor plumColor]];//[UIImage imageNamed:#"MoveablePin"];
draggingMarker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(_toSaveLat, _toSaveLon);
draggingMarker.tappable = NO;
draggingMarker.draggable = YES;
draggingMarker.map = self.dragDropMap;
-(void)mapView:(GMSMapView *)mapView didEndDraggingMarker:(GMSMarker *)marker{
NSLog(#"marker dragged to location: %f,%f", marker.position.latitude, marker.position.longitude);
_toSaveLat = marker.position.latitude;
_toSaveLon = marker.position.longitude;
}
Am I missing something in the code or anything else? Please suggest a solution or workaround to get this fixed. Thanks!

google map changing center when zoom in ios sdk

I have a ios app where I zoom in google map to certain zoom level programatically, but when I do so map changes its center. I want to be able to zoom in with keeping current center as center.
Can anybody help me.
Code below:
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:18.5600
longitude:73.7903
zoom:12];
mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
mapView_.myLocationEnabled = YES;
mapView_.userInteractionEnabled =YES;
mapView_.delegate = self;
mapView_.settings.myLocationButton = YES;
mapView_.settings.compassButton = YES;
mapView_.padding = UIEdgeInsetsMake(20, 0, 20, 0);
mapView_.mapType = kGMSTypeHybrid;
self.view = mapView_;
This is how I add the map.
And then on certain event I zoom it to zoom level 14:
camera=[GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:lat longitude:lon zoom:14];
[mapView_ setCamera:camera];
This is a late answer but hopefully help someone with similar issue in the future.
You should set allowScrollGesturesDuringRotateOrZoom of your GMSMapView object's settings to false. This will disable any other gestures on GMSMapView when you zoom or rotate.
settings here is GMSUISettings class which is responsible for all user interface settings of the map.
mapView.settings.allowScrollGesturesDuringRotateOrZoom = false

Blue dot for current location not displaying using google maps for iOS

I'm trying to implement current locations in my app. Please see my code for the viewDidLoad below:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[self hideTabBar:self.tabBarController];
// Create a GMSCameraPosition that tells the map to display the
// coordinate -33.86,151.20 at zoom level 6.
GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:-33.86
longitude:151.20
zoom:6];
mapView_ = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];
mapView_.myLocationEnabled = YES;
mapView_.settings.compassButton = YES;
mapView_.settings.myLocationButton = YES;
mapView_.accessibilityElementsHidden = NO;
self.view = mapView_;
// Creates a marker in the center of the map.
GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(-33.86, 151.20);
marker.title = #"Sydney";
marker.snippet = #"Australia";
marker.map = mapView_;
}
I can see the map in the iOS simulator (iPhone 4s) with the marker set to Sydney, but no blue dot to be seen anywhere. Is current location perhaps working but the UI element is hidden?
Thanks for any help/suggestions!
In my app I need to implement the CLLocationManager and set NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescriptionin the Custom Target Properties.
Hope this helps.
In simulator, you need to set custom location like following:
Debug > Locations > Custom Location... then enter a latitude and longitude for the location you would like to simulate.
NOTE: if this method didn't work, then just select Freeway Drive instead of Custom Location. Once you clicked on Freeway Drive, then do the same step as above mentioned.
func didTapMyLocationButton(for mapView: GMSMapView) -> Bool {
//if want to change the camera position
if self.latDouble != 0.0 && self.longDouble != 0.0
{
let camera: GMSCameraPosition = GMSCameraPosition.camera(withLatitude: self.latDouble, longitude: self.longDouble, zoom: 18.0)
self.mapView.camera = camera
}
self.mapView.isMyLocationEnabled = true
self.mapView.reloadInputViews()
return true
}
