But i am unable to see the compass button.

Answer 1

If the navigation bar is visible, the compass button is behind it. To make it appear below the navigation bar you need to add a padding to the top side of the map view.

Objective-C

UIEdgeInsets mapInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(80.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
GMSMapView *mapView;
mapView.padding = mapInsets;

Swift

let mapInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 80.0, left: 0.0, bottom: 0.0, right: 0.0)
mapView.padding = mapInsets
