For some reason when I launch my app it does everything correctly except show the user as blue dot on the map. It zooms in to the users current location, just no dot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've added code and screenshots below for resources.

double latitude_UserLocation, longitude_UserLocation;
}

{
[super viewDidLoad];
[self loadUserLocation];
//self.title = NSLocalizedString(@"Front View", nil);
SWRevealViewController *revealController = [self revealViewController];
[revealController panGestureRecognizer];
[revealController tapGestureRecognizer];
[self.navigationController.navigationBar addGestureRecognizer:revealController.panGestureRecognizer];
UIBarButtonItem *revealButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"reveal-icon.png"]
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:revealController action:@selector(revealToggle:)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = revealButtonItem;
UIImageView* imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"BSEEK-Logo.png"]];
imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
UIView* titleView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 84, 84)];
imageView.frame = titleView.bounds;
[titleView addSubview:imageView];
self.navigationItem.titleView = titleView;
}

MKMapView
has a showsUserLocation
property. It looks like you need to turn that on.
You can set that property in code, but if your map view is created in a storyboard scene you can just check the User Location box in the storyboard editor:
Also: Make sure you have the appropriate key in your Info.plist to allow the app to access the user's location, and that you've granted the app appropriate permission on the device. (You can check in Settings->Privacy->Location Services.) If the app doesn't have permission to get the location, the map won't show it even if showsUserLocation
is enabled.
