On mkuserlocation, how do I show my own custom message in viewForAnnotation

Question

I want to show a custom message instead of \"My Location\" in viewForAnnotation. How do I do this?

Thanks Deshawn

It can be done by updating Title property of MKUserLocation.

As MKAnnotation protocol doesn't require making Title a property, cast annotation passed as an argument to MKUserLocation and set the property

- (MKAnnotationView*)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:    (id)annotation {
    if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]]) {
        [(MKUserLocation*)annotation setTitle: @"I am here"];
        return nil;
    }
    return nil;
}
