With advanced markers you can customize the default marker's background, border, glyph text, collision behavior and replace the default marker icon with a custom graphic image.
Important: Advanced marker capabilities were released in Google Maps SDK 8.0.0 for iOS 14+. Versions iOS 13 and below are not supported in Google Maps SDK 8.0.0. Getting startedAdvanced markers require a valid mapID. A map ID is a unique identifier that represents a single instance of a Google Map. You can create map IDs and update a style associated with a map ID at any time in the Google Cloud console.
Important: For testing, you can skip the step of creating and configuring a map ID, by using mapId:DEMO_MAP_ID
in your app code. DEMO_MAP_ID
is intended for testing purposes only. Don't use DEMO_MAP_ID
in a production environment.
