Overview | Places SDK for Android

Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

The Places SDK for Android lets you build location-aware apps that respond contextually to the local businesses and other places near the user's device. This means you can build rich apps based on places that mean something to the user, to complement the straightforward geographic-based services offered by the Android location services.

The following interfaces provide the primary entry points to the Places SDK for Android:

• Places provides programmatic access to Google's database of local place and business information, as well as the device's current place.
• Autocomplete provides pre-made widgets to return place predictions in response to user search queries.

A place is defined as a physical space that has a name. Another way of thinking about a place is that it's anything you can find on a map. Examples include local businesses, points of interest, and geographic locations. In the API, a place is represented by the Place interface. It includes information such as the name of the place and its address, geographical location, place ID, phone number, place type, website URL, and more.

Help your customers explore where they are and what's around them:

• Place Autocomplete automatically fills in the name and/or address of a place as users type.
• Place Details return and display more detailed information about a place.
• Nearby Search returns a list of places based on a location and a search radius.
• Place Photos returns high-quality images of a place.
• Text Search returns places based on a search text string.
• Place IDs store the unique ID for one or more places for retrieval of place information on demand.

All applications that use the Places SDK for Android must adhere to the requirements described in the Google Maps Platform Terms of Service, Usage and Billing, and Displaying Attributions.
