Get User'S Current Location/Coordinates

Not getting users current location in swift 4

The problem is your Info.plist. You need all three keys:

Fix that and the app will spring to life. I pasted your code into a project, set up the Info.plist as shown, and it worked fine.

You can actually omit "Always" starting in iOS 11, but you must have both "When In Use" and "Always and When In Use", even if you are planning to ask only for "Always".

The runtime was in fact telling you this all along in the Xcode console, but you apparently weren't looking at it. It says:

The app's Info.plist must contain both NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription and NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription keys with string values explaining to the user how the app uses this data.

How to make google maps api get user's current location to be stored it in the database?

Your code contains several issues that I will not correct here.

Add this at the end of your initMap() function and it will center the map on your location without changing any other functionality of your first script.

if (navigator.geolocation) {

  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(p) {
    var LatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(p.coords.latitude, p.coords.longitude);

    // Set the map center on user location
    map.setCenter(LatLng);
  });

} else {
  alert('Geo Location feature is not supported in this browser.');
}

Swift: Get Current User Coordinates and Store them into a Variable

import Foundation
import CoreLocation
import UIKit

public protocol LocalizationHelperDelegate: class {
    func didUpdateLocation(_ sender: CLLocation)
}

public class LocalizationHelper: NSObject {

    public weak var delegate: LocalizationHelperDelegate?
    public static var shared = LocalizationHelper()

    private lazy var locationManager: CLLocationManager = {
        let locationManager = CLLocationManager()
        locationManager.requestAlwaysAuthorization()
        locationManager.allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates = true
        locationManager.pausesLocationUpdatesAutomatically = false
        locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
        return locationManager
    }()

    private var currentLocation: CLLocationCoordinate2D?

    public func startUpdatingLocation() {
        locationManager.delegate = self
        locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
    }

    public func stopUpdatingLocation() {
        locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
    }

    public func getCurrentLocation() -> CLLocationCoordinate2D? {
        return currentLocation
    }

    public func getLat() -> Double{
        return currentLocation?.latitude ?? 0.0
    }

    public func getLon() -> Double{
        return currentLocation?.longitude ?? 0.0
    }


}

extension LocalizationHelper: CLLocationManagerDelegate {

    public func locationManager(_: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]){
        guard let location = locations.first else { return }
        currentLocation = location.coordinate
        print("[Update location at - \(Date())] with - lat: \(currentLocation!.latitude), lng: \(currentLocation!.longitude)")
        delegate?.didUpdateLocation(location)
    }
}

How to use

LocalizationHelper.shared.Start()
...
let lat = LocalizationHelper.shared.getLat()
let lon = LocalizationHelper.shared.getLon()
...
LocalizationHelper.shared.Stop()

Retrieve user current location using SwiftUI and MapKit

Create instance of CLLocationManager:

var locManager = CLLocationManager()
locManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()

then get the details:

var currentLocation: CLLocation!

if( CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus() == .authorizedWhenInUse ||
    CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus() ==  .authorizedAlways){

  currentLocation = locManager.location

}

then to get longitude or latitude:

let longitude = currentLocation.coordinate.longitude
let latitude = currentLocation.coordinate.latitude

If you'd like to perform it inside a swiftUI view script, create instance:

@ObservedObject var locationManager = LocationManager()

Get them separately:

var userLatitude: String {
    return "\(locationManager.lastLocation?.coordinate.latitude ?? 0)"

var userLongitude: String {
        return "\(locationManager.lastLocation?.coordinate.longitude ?? 0)"
