showsUserLocation won't work for some reason - mapkit

Question

For some reason my Map wont present the Users location when button "GetLocation" is pressed. I also made sure "GetLocation" is delegated to the button on the viewcontroller. I have compared my code with others in this forum and been stuck on this matter for quite a while..
//ViewController .h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#import <MapKit/MKFoundation.h>
#import <MapKit/MKAnnotationView.h>
#import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>
#interface testmap : UIViewController <MKAnnotation, MKMapViewDelegate, CLLocationManagerDelegate> {
IBOutlet MKMapView *mapView;
CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
NSString *title;
NSString *subtitle;
}
#property (nonatomic, assign) CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *title;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *subtitle;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *name;
#property(nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet MKMapView *mapView;
#property (strong) CLLocationManager *locationManager;
- (id)initWithLocation:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)coord;
- (IBAction)GetLocation:(id)sender;
#end
//ViewController .m
#define IS_OS_8_OR_LATER ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 8.0)
#import "testmap.h"
- (NSString *)deviceLocation {
return [NSString stringWithFormat:#"latitude: %f longitude: %f", self.locationManager.location.coordinate.latitude, self.locationManager.location.coordinate.longitude];
}
- (IBAction)GetLocation:(id)sender; {
self.locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
self.locationManager.delegate = self;
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest;
self.locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
if (IS_OS_8_OR_LATER) {
[self.locationManager requestWhenInUseAuthorization];
[self.locationManager requestAlwaysAuthorization];
[self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}
mapView.showsUserLocation = YES;
}
-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didChangeAuthorizationStatus:(CLAuthorizationStatus)status {
if (status == kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorizedWhenInUse) {
self.mapView.showsUserLocation = YES;
self.mapView.showsPointsOfInterest = YES;
}
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
// Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Release any cached data, images, etc that aren't in use.
