The current location image in Google Maps SDK for iOS is opaque for iOS 8. How to change the image or use the same but with transparency?

  • Create your own marker and handle the tap on the "my location" button yourself - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/reference/protocol_g_m_s_map_view_delegate-p#ac0e0171b811e839d9021800ca9fd33f4 – Adam Jenkins Mar 01 '15 at 21:23

This is a weird behaviour on the simulator, but it renders the marker with transparency on the actual device.

On iOS Simulator:
