I was following this tutorial today, after 2 years. And, my Android studio was providing the code suggestions/hints exactly as it is entered in the video including the strings used. I think, Googles' Gemini AI just picked the code from your github. :D

[rileyfarro]

It's really good for me that I turn on the notification bell for awesome contents like this 😁

[ubersticks]

These quick demos are great and also a wonderful reinforcement of the architecture you teach in your other tutorials. Creating your package structure is almost second nature to me now.

I havent seen the video yet but I already know it will be great

Thanks Philipp. I learned from your videos.

Nice tutorial, could you work on locations update next.. Would be really helpful because there isn't any tutorial out there for location update on compose.

Displaying api keys in plain text on manifest is not good 😥

[masmmaw]

Finally google maps has a version compose

[dewetvanrooyen]

hope you could answer, following your instructions, I seem to have a issue with the long click . When I long click to create a Marker on map the marker appears in the middle of the map, and not were I was pressing. Could be so kind and help . Thanks for great content.

when I create a project, it asks me to pay. Can't we get it without payment?

[damianviltres]

Amazing video. Is possible to use Marker clustering with this new library? If this possible, I would like a video explaining the solution, It would be great. Thanks!!

8:00 I think "viewModel()" doesn't work because using the name "viewModel" refers to the "viewModel" parameter itself for some reason (according to the type shown in the suggestion) 🤔

[berkc]

amazing video, thanks!!! also which android studio theme is this? looks really cool.

[mino]

At 8:10 it does that because, you are defining another variable named viewModel, you should just simply called it mapsViewModel :)
