I'm using Swift to do a reverse geocode on a device's location, getting the country. Then finding the index of that country in an array and scrolling to that index in my UITableView.
My problem is, I can't find a list of the country names Apple would return.
For example, my UITableView might have a row with the title "United States of America", but the country returned by Apple's API is "United States". My UITableView then obviously doesn't scroll to that position.
I've thought of running through the array and doing a type of contains() to see if the country returned by Apple is somewhere within the array element but this seems like a pretty nasty way around both for performance and the fact that it will only solve SOME instances of the problem.
You can find the official list of ISO country codes (which are returned by a reverse geocode) here. It is the Alpha-2 code that gets returned.
