# Sencha touch 2 - Display current location on map
Hi [Expert](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13120/an-expert-financial-advice-will-improve-your-finances)!\
I want to display my [current location](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/34690/how-to-automatically-fill-our-current-location-in-the-places-textarea-for-my-mvc-application) and get location coordinates to [search](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/65368/best-smo-services-company-in-hyderabad-improve-search-rankings) nearby. [Starting](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/12024/things-you-need-to-know-when-starting-your-own-business) with the [code](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85458/alan-turing-the-mastermind-behind-cracking-the-enigma-code-during-world-war-ii) below to display my location on the [map](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81351/nepal-parliament-s-approves-new-controversial-map-india-rejects-it-but), but its not working.\
{ xtype: 'map', useCurrentLocation: [true](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81326/boycott-chinese-products-dream-will-come-true)}\
Thanks in [advance](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/33258/jee-mains-and-jee-advance-exams)!

Hi Jacob!\
My code in that forum did not worked. The code that I was using is as follows:**\****The index.html file looks like this:**
```
Sample app
```
And my ppl.js looks like this:
```
Ext.define('PPL.App', {extend : 'Ext.Panel',layout : 'vbox',config : { items : [{ xtype : 'toolbar', title : 'Sample MAP' },{ xtype : 'panel', layout : 'fit', items : [{ xtype : 'map', useCurrentLocation : true }] }]}});
```
If I change my ppl.js into the following:\
```
Ext.define('PPL.App', {extend : 'Ext.Map',layout : 'fit',config : { items : [{ xtype : 'map', useCurrentLocation : false }]}});
```
\
Then it is working! So, I think we need to wait untill next release, in the mean time learn ST2 :-)\
I hope it helpful for you.\
