This GeoCoder function is free? not "illegal"?

And about perfomance, it's have a low latency response time?

This plugin uses Android native geocoder and iOS native geocoder which are not required API keys, not Geocode API of the Google Maps.

If this plugin has some wrong ways, I have been claimed from Google and Apple already, but no claims so far at all.

So, the geocoder is free.

And about perfomance, it's have a low latency response time?

Please do your tests before asking.

Another question, that i dont found in doc, what are max results of this plugin GeoCoder? I can pass a location (lat, lng) to the function to "turn results more close to me"?

This plugin involves the native geocoder API based on your request, then return the results from the native geocoder to JS side.
Thus, it's depends on the native geocoder API, not this plugin.
