[Kh_i_D_c]

I found some tutorial on the internet but all is use google map through ActivityStarter. Can I add google map directly on my app?

You can add a WebViewer and set its HomeUrl to https://maps.google.com.

GoogleMaps.aia (1.1 KB)

Thank you :))

With the normal Map component, you can pan (move) the map to a specific location.

With the Google Maps (WebViewer) solution, it is also available.

See this topic.

Hello again, I wanted to tell that it is not working for me when I search a place, for example Hong kong. Below is the screenshot of the error it is showing after I select Hong kong.

@Gordon_Lu Please tell how to fix it.

[Gordon_Lu]

Can I check your AIA?

[Gordon_Lu]

I am unable to replicate your error. Please post your blocks.

[Gordon_Lu]

@ARNAV_TIWARI_11356-2, you have posted a similar problem in another topic. Please read that topic instead of this one. Thank you.

The blocks are the same as in post number6 as posted by you.

[Gordon_Lu]

I got a document explaining this error.

How to fix ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME

It is working on all of my devices. I do not know why it does not work on yours.

In a problem earlier, you stated that you cannot access YouTube. Probably it is the same reason.

[ARNAV_TIWARI_11356-2]

It is showing this on my side-

[Gordon_Lu]

Then that is a connectivity issue in your region.

[ARNAV_TIWARI_11356-2]

maybe it is that only

[ARNAV_TIWARI_11356-2]

No there is no connectivity issue because I am using Google and it is working.

Dora, in a PM with the user, I found out that the user has trouble connecting to YouTube. Maybe it is the same.

Also, I think you should be posting in this topic.

What code enables the map to automatically take our current location?

What code do i need to enter so that the map automatically sets my current location and sets the name of the place i have entered in a textbox as the destination ?
