I'm making this app where people can see what tourist attractions are near them and I'm a bit stuck!

I need it to load the user's current location when the app is loaded and zoom to it, however it's not doing so.

Sorry to be a bit blunt but I really don't know how to set it up so that it will work with both the button and load their location automatically.

Use this, and don't forget to put the delegate on your .h file, hope it works ;)

    _mapView.userTrackingMode = YES;

- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didUpdateUserLocation:(MKUserLocation *)userLocation {

    MKCoordinateRegion region;
    MKCoordinateSpan span;

    span.latitudeDelta = 0.00001;
    span.longitudeDelta = 0.00001;

    CLLocationCoordinate2D location = _mapView.userLocation.coordinate;

    region.span = span;
    region.center = location;

    [_mapView setRegion:region animated:TRUE];
    [_mapView regionThatFits:region];

}
