Maps.nav (iOS Navigation App)

This repository contains the code for an iOS navigation app made using Apple's Core-Location and MapKit API.

Description

This is a simple iOS app using Core-Location and MapKit provided by Apple to navigate a person from one place to other.

Working

1. Run/Open the app

2. Allow the App to access your Location.

3. The app will automatically at startup zoom in to your current location. Also, it will show the Longitude and Latitude of user's current location.

4. On the map, zoom out a bit, scroll on the map and select your destination.

5. To set a pin for the destination, choose the destination and press there for 1 sec.

6. Once the pin appears at your destination, click on Navigate.

7. The app will show the best route depicted by the black line on the map.

8. Follow the black line and it will lead you to your destination.

Here's a quick working demo of the App:

Requirements

• XCode 9
• Swift 3 and above
• iPhone 6 and above
• Toaster [for Toast Messages]

Toaster Setup:

sudo gem install cocoapods
pod init
open -a Xcode Podfile

Edit the Podfile: Add the following line

pod 'Toaster'

and close the pod file.

To Do / Enhancements:

5. Improve the User Interface of the App.
