Obj-C - MKMapView Annotation Callout not showing on tap?


I have annotations on my mapview (self.friendsMapView) that should present a callout when tapped. Each annotation displays a title and a description (body). For some reason, no matter what I try, my callout will not show if my annotation is tapped. Am I missing something here?

A bit of background: I previously had two mapViews inside one ViewController (and, I had callouts working fine). However after I decided to remove one mapview (self.neighboursMapView) and its code, my callouts for self.friendsMapView seem to have stopped working.

ViewController.m

    - (void)viewDidLoad {
        [super viewDidLoad];


         friendsMapView.showsUserLocation = YES;
        [friendsMapView setMapType:MKMapTypeStandard];
        [friendsMapView setZoomEnabled:YES];
        [friendsMapView setScrollEnabled:YES];

        NSMutableDictionary *viewParamsFriend = [NSMutableDictionary new];
        [viewParamsFriend setValue:@"accepted_friends" forKey:@"view_name"];
        [DIOSView viewGet:viewParamsFriend success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {


            self.friendData = [responseObject mutableCopy];

            int index = 0;

            for (NSMutableDictionary *multiplelocationsFriend in self.friendData) {


                NSString *location = multiplelocationsFriend[@"address2"];
                NSString *userNames = multiplelocationsFriend[@"first name"];
                NSString *userBio = multiplelocationsFriend[@"body"];


                CLGeocoder *geocoderFriend = [[CLGeocoder alloc] init];
                [geocoderFriend geocodeAddressString:location
                             completionHandler:^(NSArray* placemarks, NSError* error){
                                 if (placemarks && placemarks.count > 0) {
                                     CLPlacemark *topResult = [placemarks objectAtIndex:0];
                                     MKPlacemark *placemark = [[MKPlacemark alloc] initWithPlacemark:topResult];

                                     MKCoordinateRegion region = self.friendsMapView.region;

                                     region.span.longitudeDelta /= 150.0;
                                     region.span.latitudeDelta /= 150.0;


                                     PointAnnotation *point = [[PointAnnotation alloc] init];
                                     point.coordinate = placemark.coordinate;
                                     point.title = userNames;
                                     point.subtitle = userBio;
                                     point.index = index;  // Store index here.

                                     [self.friendsMapView addAnnotation:point];
                                 }
                             }
                 ];

                index = index + 1;

            }

        } failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
            NSLog(@"Failure: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
        }];

Solution

  • Try viewForAnnotation method with following configuration.

    - (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation{
    
    
        if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
            return nil;
    
        if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKPointAnnotation class]])
        {
    
            MKAnnotationView *pinView = (MKAnnotationView*)[mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:@"CustomPinAnnotationView"];
            if (!pinView)
            {
    
                pinView = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:@"CustomPinAnnotationView"];
    
                pinView.canShowCallout = YES;
                pinView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"annotation"];
                pinView.calloutOffset = CGPointMake(0, 0);
    
    
                UIImageView *iconView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"annotation"]];
                pinView.leftCalloutAccessoryView = iconView;
    
    
            } else {
                pinView.annotation = annotation;
            }
            return pinView;
        }
        return nil;
    
    }
