Use case

Callouts are used to display temporary detail content on a map. You can display text and arbitrary UI controls in callouts.

How to use the sample

Tap anywhere on the map. A callout showing the WGS 84 coordinates in latitude and longitude for the tapped point will appear.

How it works

  1. Define an optional LocationCalloutPlacement.
  2. Use the onSingleTapGesture(perform:) map view modifier to update the location callout placement.
  3. Use the callout(placement:content:) map view modifier with the location callout placement to display a callout.

Relevant API

  • LocationCalloutPlacement
  • MapView.callout(placement:content:)
