How to setCenter mapview with location in google maps sdk for iOS

How to setCenter mapview with location in google maps sdk for iOS? With mapkit we can do setCenter:Location. How do this with google maps sdk for iOS.

Solution

  • Create a new camera with the GMSCameraPosition constructor

    + (GMSCameraPosition *)cameraWithTarget:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)target zoom:(CGFloat)zoom

    then use the method

    - (void)animateToCameraPosition:(GMSCameraPosition *)cameraPosition;

    You can also just use

    - (void)animateToLocation:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)location;

    but the previous allows you to change the zoom, bearing, and viewing angle within the camera constructor if you want more control over the final appearance of the camera.
