Hi. You're doing great job. It will be helpful if you make videos about Core Animation. Hope you will cover some advance topics in upcoming days.

2ndly I want something like changing the icon of the pin in the apple map kit ... where as we can change the pin easily in the google maps ... can we change the pin icon (marker) in the Apple Maps ...? if yes plz comment

[@RDLabswithRohant]

Yes you can. Below is the code for that:
FIRST: Set the delegate of the MapView to Self in viewdidload()
myMap.delegate = self
SECOND: Add MKMapViewDelegate to the Class
THIRD: Copy these lines of code to your Class. The Pin will change itself to a black circle dot.
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, viewFor annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView? {
if !(annotation is MKPointAnnotation) {
return nil
}
let annotationIdentifier = "AnyName"
var annotationView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationView(withIdentifier: annotationIdentifier)
if annotationView == nil {
annotationView = MKAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: annotationIdentifier)
annotationView!.canShowCallout = true
}
else {
annotationView!.annotation = annotation
}
let pinImage = UIImage(systemName: "circle.fill")
annotationView!.image = pinImage
return annotationView
}

Do you know how to drop marker and get the user to describe what it is as a user on the app?

Hello James, One must use the PlacesAPI for this to happen. This calls for me to do a video on this subject
