Answer 1

This is one of properties of MKMapView class. Default value is No, so just set it to YES in your code.

Note that if you add a MapView on to your ViewController in Storyboard, look at the attribute inspector, by default has other annotations checked (Buildings, Points of Interest) on your MapView excepts User Location. It took me a while to find this, it feels like I am playing hide and seek, no sure why it so important to leave this unchecked.

self.mapView.showsUserLocation = YES;

As thexande mentioned, for swift3 you will have to set this to true:

self.mapView.showsUserLocation = true;
