Google maps gives current position arrow but doesn't load the map - ios

Question

I dropped the maps from iOS and switched to google maps. Now it shows my position but it doesn't load the map. It is gray / yellow with in the bottom left Google.
This is my implementation:
#import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>
#interface GoogleMapViewController ()
#property (strong, nonatomic) CLLocationManager *locationManager;
#end
#implementation GoogleMapViewController
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// 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;
self.view = _mapView;
[self initLocationManager];
// 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;
}
- (void) initLocationManager
{
self.locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init] ;
self.locationManager.delegate = (id)self;
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBestForNavigation ;
[self.locationManager setDistanceFilter:10.0f] ;
[self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation
fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation
{
NSLog(#"New locations");
[self.locationManager stopUpdatingLocation];
_mapView.camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithTarget:newLocation.coordinate
zoom:6];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
This is basically the tutorial demo app from Google Dev page, and I'm not sure why it's not loading the map.
This is what I get:

Answer 1

I found the problem. You need to set the initial camera zoom level on 1 and then zoom in on your current location. That way you can still zoom out and have the whole map available.
If you take a zoomlevel 14 as initial, google maps doesn't load the rest of the map I think.
