I'm building an iPhone app (in iOS 5) with several different views, one of which contains a map (also has separate view controller). The first time I go over to this view, it takes a while for it to load, and things such as animating pin drops also don't work well as a result of it. Not to mention that it takes a bit for the location to stabilize.
What I want to know is if there's a way to load MKMapView before a user goes to that view, so by the time they get there, these issues aren't present anymore.
I've already seen this and this question but they haven't been very helpful. Keep in mind that I don't really need to interact with that view before I get there, I just want it to be fully loaded by the time I go there.
