We are going to want to have support for maps in Sky.
There are a few ways we might go about doing this:
- Use native maps widget for each platform to render the map
- Use maps widget for each platform to render to a texture and draw the map ourselves
- Develop a custom maps SDK for Sky
The second option would be ideal but may not be possible. We should investigate which approach is best and build a demo app.

We'll almost certainly want to use some non-Dart SDK to provide Maps support, so yes.

We expect developers will use Maps by using a "native" iOS or Android maps view, per:

I don't see in this doc descriptions of how to integrate native widget (like Maps) into your flutter apps. Have I missed something ?
a14n
on 13 May 2016
Sorry, I may have been a bit overzealous in my linking. Said doc is pre-work for Flutter to participate as a normal View inside Obj-C/Java applications. The path to add other Obj-C/Java code to them is not yet documented, no.

As a developer i really want to use the native Google Maps component to render inside my flutter app. I just created a flutter app and this is kind of a blocker. The only solution is to build it in Java/Android and open it when clicking a flutter button.
Ideally I would like a 'NativeView' in flutter, which renders a native widget inside flutter.
This is probably quite difficult because you have merge rendering / events into the flutter rendering engine.
It also goes against the flutter 'one widget for both platforms'. However, sometimes complex widgets (like a map) are really something you want to reuse.

Hello ! I would love to know the roadmap of this feature, or even if one even exists. I have two mobile apps in the works and both rely heavily on a map. I love Dart, and I'm looking for an excuse to try Flutter.
The solution with FlutterView looks overly complicated, from the point of view of a rookie who has never written a single line of Flutter. The other solutions do not suit my need, I need a fully interactive map.
I don't know how hairy that is to implement in Flutter, nor if you even plan to implement it someday. Any info would be appreciated. I guess the resolution of this issue will be my signal to start development with Flutter.
Goutte
on 2 Dec 2016
Is there any chance maps will be implemented in 2017? I love Dart and would like very much to use Flutter, but I really need non-static maps, like showing points of interest nearby and showing the description upon the click on the point.

First of all I (fulltime Android dev) love flutter and the progress that is made the last months is impressive. That said, I think this issue is a pretty big blocker for a lot of people that are willing to migrate their business in the future.
I'm currently doing a case study for the company i am working for and if a NativeView (per tjerkw's suggestion) feature exists we could use that to properly bridge the gap between the different platforms!

Yes. We've gotten that feedback consistently. It's just a question of what implementation approach we want to take and when to schedule the work.

We haven't begun work specifically on maps, but we have begun studying inline video and we believe that this should pave the way for this work. We cannot give an ETA at this time.
Hixie
on 16 Jun 2017
I too would like to be able to use maps in Flutter, but there is a simple case that might be a workaround. If I could have a full screen native map being displayed, and have a semi-transparent Flutter layer above it, and some easy way to communicate between the native map layer and the Flutter app (e.g., to tell when the map moves, its center lat/lng, zoom level, etc.) that would work for quite a few applications that require maps. In other words, no inline maps embedded in a Flutter view.
It would be even better if this is generalized so that a flutter layer can be composited on top of any Android layer -- not just maps, but 3D views (including VR), or video, etc.

@sethladd It's a great first step. But as Flutter focuses on cross platform development, it should have a plugin for both platforms. But I'm sure tons of new plugins will come when inline views are available.

I created a solution that works in Android and iOS and I made a video showing the result.
It is using Google Static Maps and I implemented the zoom in / zoom out features and added a pin in the user location, but it is possible to implement other features, like moving north/south/east/west and add a bunch of pins.
To make it more efficient, I stacked 3 maps - the one that you see, one with +1 level of zoom and one with -1 level of zoom. Because Flutter is awesome in caching images, when you press + or -, it will get the cached image, so it will pretty fast.
new Stack(
children: <Widget>[
new Center(
child: new CircularProgressIndicator(),
),
//Zoom in Map Image for caching
new Image.network(
mapUrl.zoomInMapUrl,
fit: BoxFit.contain,
),
//Zoom out Map Image for caching
new Image.network(
mapUrl.zoomOutMapUrl,
fit: BoxFit.contain,
),
//Map Image
new Image.network(
mapUrl.mapUrl,
fit: BoxFit.contain,
gaplessPlayback: true,
),
new Positioned(
bottom: 16.0,
right: 16.0,
child: new Column(
children: <Widget>[
//Zoom in
new Container(
color: Colors.black54,
child: new IconButton(
icon: new Icon(Icons.add),
color: Colors.white,
onPressed: () => zoomInMap(true),
),
),
new Divider(),
//Zoom out
new Container(
color: Colors.black54,
child: new IconButton(
icon: new Icon(Icons.remove),
color: Colors.white,
onPressed: () => zoomInMap(false),
),
),
],
),
),
],
),
Even though I am not making available the source code right now, the implementation is pretty much straight forward.
Don't forget to read the video description.

@bramvbilsen Just to avoid confusion, Google Static Maps does not provide zoom in / zoom out functionality. What really happens is that when you click the +/- button, it requests a new image.

I think for now, if you need these advanced widgets, flutter is a no go area.
Whenever you start a project in flutter, you must understand that some designs that your designers come up with are not easy to implement.
The best workaround is a google static map, with a link to a fullscreen map component. Since a lot of apps are doing this now, it gives you a solution to build a flutter app with native like experience.
In the long term, i hope flutter has its own native gmaps widget. But before that happens flutter must be announced oficially by Google, and supporting it. Its unclear what the future of flutter now.
tjerkw
on 22 Jun 2017
@tjerkw I do agree that it's still in alpha, so we can't expect every functionality from more mature frameworks yet. But hasn't Flutter been announced by Google yet? They even showed it at IO
bramvbilsen
on 22 Jun 2017
@tjerkw Very clear explanation for Gmaps.
I have already work with VTM (vector-tile map) library for Android (opensciencemap/openstreetmap). Is there a library adapted to flutter to manage an open-source map ?
FredericLetellier

Agreed, but our ecosystem is only now booting up. We hope by sharing existing plugins we find, we can get more contributors to help author more features and functionality.

@theobouwman Right now, this is the best solution -- https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/map_view
If you want to have a map act like it is part of a Flutter widget, you can insert a map as an image (using the static maps API -- https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/static-maps/ ). When the user clicks on this static map image, open up a full page map, along with a widget to close this. After the user closes the full page map, replace the map image with an updated static map (showing changes in map zoom and scroll, any added markets, etc.)

I would love to hear your use cases for what you call "native widget" integration. I've built quite a few apps using maps, and to me it is sufficient to have the ability to overlay flutter widgets on top of a full page map, and to have a static map embedded in a Flutter widget that opens up to a full page map. I'm not saying we shouldn't provide native widget integration, I'm just curious why people want it and I want to understand.
wmleler
on 3 Jan 2018
@wmleler There are a lot of use cases! For example an interactive map with restaurants nearby. You'd want to use an inline map with some custom layout on top of it to make your app look unique.
bramvbilsen

It's pretty basic stuff for geographic applications. Like, for example, an app that is a list of pins and GeoJSON meshes.

@wmleler Our apps usually look like this. We have tabs, on the first tab is a google map. On the second is a listview. I am able to click on any pin on the map and then I see something like "partial" detail/info of that item from which I can launch navigation from the current position to that item (selected pin). This partial detail overlays the map.

@wmleler we are looking to port an application with a split Android/iOS code base over to Flutter. But the main feature uses Google Maps to display pins. So we are really waiting on this feature.
I was thinking about implementation and wondering if this could be done similar to the video support. Something along the lines of a FlutterNativeHostView which hosts the platform view and stubs out the child rendering process to a texture supplied by the Flutter framework. This could then be displayed like the video player in the Flutter view hierarchy. [Touch] Input would have to be passed over a method call to the plugin, but it would be doable.
Frankly the better way.. and the only other other way I can see it implemented, would be to rewrite/redeploy the Google Maps library in Dart. I would suppose this would take more time.
@wmleler I'd love to hear your thoughts on something like the host view. Perhaps this is a good direction for Flutter so that more libraries can be ported over by wrapping their current components in a Plugin.

You can show native Google Maps View over FlutterView.
The AdMob plugin is doing something similar:
https://github.com/flutter/plugins/blob/master/packages/firebase_admob/android/src/main/java/io/flutter/plugins/firebaseadmob/MobileAd.java#L242
najeira
on 23 Jan 2018
@slightfoot The idea of a FlutterNativeHostView sounds interesting, though I am not sure how that would work technically on Android. Do you have a concrete approach in mind concerning how to "stub out the child rendering process"?
On iOS, we are currently working on a solution that integrates CALayers into the way the Flutter Engine does compositing. That should allow us to consume any UIView.
mravn-google
on 26 Jan 2018
I am fairly new to the Flutter eco-system, but if I understand how it works correctly; Skia is using OpenGL to do its rendering. You might look at Google GVRKit on how they are doing it. GVRUIRenderer can take a normal UI element and put it into the OpenGL scene.

For GoogleMaps:
We are actively working on it. Landing our solution is still a few weeks away. In the meantime you may want to use AppTree's plugin. While that plugin offers only full-screen interactive maps and inline static ones, it might be enough for you to get a prototype up and running.
It should be noted that GoogleMaps on Android is not currently open to integration into custom, OpenGL compositing like the Flutter engine does. So while we will be able to deliver interactive, inline maps also on Android, they will be restricted for now so that they are either top-most on the z axis or non-interactive.
In other words, it will take some time before Flutter is able to draw a button on top of an interactive map on Android. You can still draw such buttons with custom Java/Kotlin code of course. We are working with the maps team to resolve that issue too, but it will take some time, as an API addition seems necessary.
mravn-google
on 22 Feb 2018
By the way, AppTree, in addition to their plugin that Mikkel mentioned, is
currently working on a new package (not a plugin!) that implements maps in
Flutter directly (the basemaps themselves and things like markers are
implemented as actual Flutter widgets). A few caveats: first, it does not
use the Google Maps API; second, it is currently experimental (and not
feature complete) but is working. This is a radical new way of implementing
maps that I find exciting (like all Flutter widgets, it is highly
customizable), but of course there are risks and it is currently rather
immature. If you are interested, here's a link to their repository:

As many here I am fairly new to Flutter and the lack of Google Maps support is a no go for my app to be migrated to Flutter.
That being said, please don't take me wrong, I understand the struggle on what I am about to suggest, but I believe Flutter should implement a Google Maps Widget made from the ground up, in Dart, with all the Google Maps APIs to support its power, just like the Android one is.
Maps are supposed to be fast and interactive, we expect to be able to draw paths on the maps, add custom pins and etc. Also, we want to programmatically get places search autocomplete, reverse-geocoding, geocoding, Longitude and Latitude distance calculations support.
Trying to use the Native Map on the device will probably be too limited for a full mobile experience, so my suggestion (as hard as it is) is to focus on a full Google Maps Widget + Google Maps API for Flutter/Dart and do it properly, even if it takes more time to deliver.
feinstein

I think that for a modern looking maps sdk (like google maps or mapbox), you’ll need opengl and since this is not yet supported, it will be difficult to build it from the ground up in dart (I tried doing it with canvas drawing, but it was too slow). I think there are two alternatives: (1) a less modern looking map, with simple image tiles (see e.g. https://github.com/apptreesoftware/flutter_map ) and (2) native plugins that draw to a SurfaceTexture that can be used in flutter through a Texture component (probably the open source mapbox sdk’s can be used as a basis for this).
It is my understanding that the flutter authors are working on a maps sdk. What approach are they taking? What is the timeline? Will it be worth waiting for this or should the community start working on this?

ezrasandzerbell
on 20 Mar 2018
@ezrasandzerbell We've been delayed in this work which is going to happen in the context of the google_mobile_maps plugin repo. I expect activity to pick up very shortly.
Our initial (limited) solution will be to use native map views as overlays, later to be replaced by texture streaming from the native map views, once the GoogleMap APIs support that. The main point of the plugin until that happens is to support the development of the Dart API for controlling maps. This includes the ability to place markers etc.
mravn-google
on 22 Mar 2018
@mravn-google Thanks for the new feature details. I noticed that the google_mobile_maps plugin doesn't have a public issues tab, so I am following up here. We would greatly appreciate documentation with code samples when these new features roll out.
I am personally interested in:
1) How to constrain a google map to specific width and heights. The solutions that I've seen so far (AppTree, MapView) both seemed to be full screen views only. Documentation is sparse for correct implementation and common use cases.
2) How to hook up a search tool like Google Places Autocomplete (https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/flutter_google_places_autocomplete) so that users can type in a location, autocomplete their data, submit, and see that position rendered on a map.

I tried to call the full screen places picker dialog from android, but it only shows for a second then it gets an onResume from the main flutter thread and draws over the top of it. From what I have read elsewhere this should actually work. What am I doing wrong? :)
Thanks!
```
call.method == "showPlacesPicker" -> {
val code = GoogleApiAvailability.getInstance().isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(activity)
if (GoogleApiAvailability.getInstance().showErrorDialogFragment(activity, code, REQUEST_GOOGLE_PLAY_SERVICES)) {
return
}
//val intent = Intent(activity, PlacesActivity::class.java)
//activity.startActivity(intent)
var intentBuilder = PlacePicker.IntentBuilder()
activity.startActivityForResult(intentBuilder.build(activity), PLACE_PICKER_REQUEST)
placeResult = result
return
}

@brooth, I am struggling to make maps work in RN. If you have a perfect example, please post it. Now I am on the verge of RN or Flutter. The only reason is the bug free easy to use maps. If I get maps working in RN then I would use RN.

Just gonna leave this here. If your needs of map usage are limited to asking the user for an address I implemented a plugin that handles everything, from location permission handling to reverse geocoding. https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/location_picker

hello alegsm, I'm very interested about your plugin but I don't understand the example... I'm newbi I just want to set longitude and latitude and visualise geolocalisation. Did anyone succeed?
does anyone have a simple example? thanks evrybody
nitneuq33
on 14 Apr 2018
@nitneuq33 yes you can do it with location_picker. It is intended to work as a prompt for things like asking the user to input a delivery address. You can look at the example project inside the repo. ill leave you a link
https://github.com/touwolf/location_picker/tree/master/example

on 14 Apr 2018
sorry alegsm , I tried to use the example and try to set (double initialLat; and double initialLong; ) but nothing. I think I'm too noob ^^ I don't understand how to set my lat variable and longitude variable into your example to visualise a map. any simple example or easy explication
will be welcome :)

What's wrong with flutter_map?
haydenflinner
on 24 Apr 2018
flutter_map is good substitute but it also significantly worse than native map views. It is using tiles instead of vector maps and doesn't support Google Maps let alone Apple Maps. I am personally waiting for streaming native view contents into flutter hierarchy as it will allow to close a lot more gaps than this one (e.g. WebViews, other SDKs) as referenced here: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/730#issuecomment-370274688

Move on marker press not working iOS

I dumped React Native and came back to Flutter because of how awful its map experience was for me, and I didn't care at all about things working on one platform and not on another. I think everyone's experience would be much better if we just added vector maps support to flutter_map (I don't know if gmap/apple map integration is doable?), for the same reasons that xster wrote about in Why Flutter doesn’t use OEM widgets

Note that flutter_map is based on Leaflet (rewritten into Dart/Flutter),
and there is a plugin for Leaflet that supports vector maps. Someone would
need to rewrite it into Dart/Flutter, but then you could use mapbox's
vector maps.

Mapbox (the company that provides Leaflet and a wide assortment of vector
and raster map tiles) appears to have vector maps working in Flutter. Right
now it is working on Android only, but since they are using the texture map
technique (same as what inline video is using) it should not be difficult
to get it working on iOS as well.
https://github.com/mapbox/flutter-mapbox-gl
I'm believe they are taking pull requests.
Good to see all these map solutions coming from the community.

@mit-mit Just to be clear, that means that flutter will __not__ provide a way to render offline maps?
rolurq
on 22 May 2018
My comment was not meant to make any such statement. The long-term goal is to provide a Flutter widget that has similar API capabilities to what Google Maps has on in it's Android and iOS APIs.
The term 'inline' we use here, is to capture the goal that the Flutter Google Map is a Flutter widget; something that you can place 'inline' among other Flutter widgets (next to, stack below, stack above, etc.).
mit-mit

hello there is way to customize the toolbar in map_view? or add widgets (floatingactionbutton). https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/map_view
currently map_view opens a new window full screen with a slide to the left with a black toolbar. I would like to customize the page transistion , color toolbar and add widgets to interact without having to go back.
Finally, it would not be possible to have the dynamic map in a pop up box instead of a full screen?

I will be happy to create a PR and see my work merged into Flutter. I don't know how to start and i appreciate your help getting started.
xclud
on 23 May 2018
@xclud There are many ways to deliver maps in the context of Flutter, and it therefore makes little sense to elevate one of them and put it into Flutter (= the Flutter framework). I also think it makes little sense to try and consolidate different maps packages whose approaches are very different.
The google_maps_flutter package will remain a plugin, separate from the Flutter framework. It is going to mirror the iOS/Android APIs for Google Maps pretty closely, and some operations will involve asynchronous platform messages to make changes to the native map view.
Your package, being a pure Dart solution, is likely to expose a very different API, because you don't need to mirror or call the existing GoogleMaps Android and iOS APIs, and you don't need asynchronous platform messages.
mravn-google
on 23 May 2018
@mravn-google what's the advantage of using the platform native maps, instead of making a pure Dart solution from scratch? Why don't you integrate it with the Flutter framework?
I thought Flutter was all about consolidating everything into a new code base, trying to use as little as possible the inner platforms, just replicating its behavior in Dart.
Is this a temporary solution for the rendering problems? Or is it related to some business problems on the Google Maps keys usage?
feinstein
on 23 May 2018
There is no one best solution for maps. We have some customers who really
want the real Google maps. We have other customers who need highly
customized maps.

elements of the map are Flutter widgets), check out

I think we would want to avoid a dependency on a separate service/server in
Flutter core.
This is what plugins are made for, either official flutter supported

@feinstein Google Maps is just one maps provider (albeit an important one). But Flutter apps should also work with MapBox and any other maps provider out there.
Flutter is not about consolidating everything into a monolithic code base. That's why we have packages and plugins separate from the Flutter framework.
That said, in the ideal world, the Google Maps team would supply a pure Dart maps widget as a Flutter package. MapBox would supply their take on the same thing. And so on. This is bound to happen, if Flutter becomes popular enough. In the meantime, we need to integrate the maps components we have.
mravn-google
on 23 May 2018
@mravn-google thanks, this makes perfect sense to me!
On that topic, I think Flutter will be adopted a lot quicker if there was a supporting ecosystem around it, the same as Java for Android currently has, that being Dagger 2, Retrofit, Picasso, Room, RxAndroid, Junit, Expresso etc... (I know some of this functionalities we can already find in Flutter, but I just wanted to be thorough on my list nonetheless). I understand this is asking a lot of you guys, but I can see a speed up on adptoion once developers see an easy migration and don't miss anything from the old platform.

I've been playing around with the plugin, and I'm not able to do the following:
I want to be able to navigate to a page that contains the map widget, in full screen, and when pressing "back" (or other actions), the map widget disappears.
From what I can see, the examples folder attaches the navigatorObservers when creating the app. My issue is that GoogleMapOverlayController needs a width and a height to be created, and the only way I've been able to get the dimensions of the screen is using a LayoutBuilder (getting the BoxConstraints), at build stage (ie. can't do it statically). To get the map to be interactive, I need to manually attach it to the context. But then there's no way I've been able to detach it. When I press the back button, the app navigates back, but the map is still over all the contents.
Below is the code I've been trying.
Page 1
Navigator.push(context, new MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => new GoogleMapsPage()));
Google Maps Page
class GoogleMapsPage extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(title: const Text("Test Maps")),
body: new GoogleMaps(),
);
}
}
class GoogleMaps extends StatefulWidget {
GoogleMaps({Key key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_GoogleMaps createState() => new _GoogleMaps();
}
class _GoogleMaps extends State<GoogleMaps> {
GoogleMapOverlayController mapOverlayController;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Center(
child: LayoutBuilder(
builder: (BuildContext context, BoxConstraints constraints) {
mapOverlayController = GoogleMapOverlayController.fromSize(
width: constraints.maxWidth,
height: constraints.maxHeight,
options: GoogleMapOptions(
cameraPosition: const CameraPosition(
target: LatLng(-34.022631, 150.620685),
zoom: 15.0,
),
tiltGesturesEnabled: false,
rotateGesturesEnabled: false,
),
);
mapOverlayController.overlayController.activateOverlay();
mapOverlayController.overlayController.attachTo(context);
return GoogleMapOverlay(controller: mapOverlayController);
}),
);
}
@override
void deactivate() {
super.deactivate();
mapOverlayController.overlayController.deactivateOverlay();
mapOverlayController.overlayController.detach();
mapOverlayController.overlayController.dispose();
mapOverlayController.mapController.dispose();
mapOverlayController.dispose();
}
}
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
jposuna
on 27 May 2018
@jposuna As stated in the readme file, the plugin is a preview intended to help bring the GoogleMapController Dart API to life. The Flutter team does not intend to support platform overlays for maps beyond what is needed to showcase and test the GoogleMapController API as we build it.
Full screen Google Maps is available using the map_view package.
mravn-google
on 27 May 2018
@mravn-google thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, the limitation I'm running into is not full-screen support (I was able to get it full-screen), but getting it off the screen when navigating away.
I'm completely new to flutter, so there might be jargon that is escaping me, but from the README ("Issues and pull requests aimed to help us prioritize and speed up this effort are very welcome"), and your earlier comment on this thread ("Full API coverage is on the roadmap where meaningful. Prioritization is very much informed by user feedback") I understood that it was a preview meant to be expanded over time based on use-cases and feedback.
But from your answer, it seems like it's not meant to develop into a fully-fledged solution, but rather serve as a proof-of-concept before the real solution. I'm I understanding it correctly? Either way is fine, I'm just trying to understanding the situation, before doing a full integration with one solution, and then having to change the whole integration down the line.
jposuna
on 27 May 2018
@jposuna We intend to expand the GoogleMapController part of the plugin to a full solution, including 1) full coverage of relevant Google Maps APIs for controlling what is shown in the map view and responding to user interaction with that view, and 2) integrating the map view as a standard widget, to be freely composed with other widgets, including those implementing navigation.
The GoogleMapOverlayController, and platform overlays in general, is a crutch for doing 2), a temporary solution because we currently don't have the Google Maps APIs needed for the real widget integration. We do not intend to work on the crutch, because it cannot carry us to where we want to go.
This means that the part of your code that depends on GoogleMapOverlayController will eventually have to change. And in case your code must employ hacks to work around the limitations of platform overlays, those hacks will eventually become unnecessary.

Was that literally can't wait, or was that an idiomatic expression of excitement?
Also, does the lack of Maps support for Flutter extend to the Places API, or could one conceivably access the Places data independently of actually pulling it up from the map itself?

zoom from the back. other experience, I tried to integer map in a Card to
have ronded border, but it's doesn,'t work. other I tried to make a

impossible to set le circular shape over the map.

@nitneuq33 https://github.com/nitneuq33 As you can read in the
README.md of this plugin - it works by placing platform view as overlay
over the flutter view and it doesn't allow freely compositing with other
widgets.—

hello, I tried to use the exemple
https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/google_maps_flutter/example/lib
but with simple view, I tried to display map after app launch with only 3
button ( sattelite type, hybrid type and new location ). I succes to do
this but without change the page architecture of the example. so I tried to
use the other simpler example
https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/google_maps_flutter
but it use StatLessWidget and the exemple of map_ui use statfulWidget but
when I tried to use statfullwidget I have errors. Can I have a simple
example with statfullWidget to use map at the launch of the app ? ( just
need of 3 button to change the type of map and lanch a new localisation ) .
I'm new on flutter sorry if it's not clear but this plugin is realy
important and this is the last bloc for me :)

I tried to explain my need in stackoverflow but I have not enought experience to debug and understand the answers. Anyone to write simple exemple of his plugin with only map on home screen compatible with option like marker, mapType etc. ? thank you

@nitneuq33000 Here's a simple example using the plugin with markers, info windows (and callback when info window tapped) & driving directions. https://github.com/gerryhigh/Flutter-Google-Maps-Demo
@@jposuna take a look as the map disappears when navigating away
Note that this example has a button on a home page which navigates to the map page but it would be trivial for you to make the venues page the home page. This example also points to a fork of the plugins in pubspec.yaml because it has a fix for the infowindowonTapped call (I need create a pull request for the fix).
Lastly, this approach does not use the navigator observer that the maps demo that comes with the plugin uses. As a result I've noticed that there is a bug on iOS when rendering the map where the overlay will show up and some x offset. Currently I'm adding a delay on load to get around this issue.
To run this example just input your map keys. I hope this helps.

I have a bug with
initState
I can't upload a saved value. I use shared preference to pass data to
the next page, but when I add this line, I have un bug and the map is
always active even when I back to the previous page.
void initState() {
super.initState();
_loadgeoValue()
}
...
_loadgeoValue() async {
SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
setState(() {
lat = (prefs.getDouble('lat1'));
long = (prefs.getDouble('long2'));
}
);
}
If some one have an idea... thanks for advance

Hello, I succeded to get around without passing into initstate to upload my
data when I launch the new page. So currently it's fonctionnal but the
fixed layer when I close the page isn't very sexy. Any idea to make it more
visual, like a fade out animation of the layermap when you close the page ?
or transition animation who catch the transition of the page ? thank you

I'm curious if the concept of "native widgets" still progressing. They were going to let you wrap a "native" view in a flutter widget in a plugin to let you, theoretically, make a mapview plugin that just wrapped the "native" views and inserted that in the flutter render tree where ever you had used the plugin's widget.

Hi, when testing google_maps_flutter I encountered the following problem:
If I press 'Go to London' button, the map goes at that location, and if I try to do a zoom out the application stop working and closes.
Log:
E/JavaBinder(10217): !!! FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION !!! (parcel size = 3050800)
I/Process (10217): Sending signal. PID: 10217 SIG: 9
Lost connection to device.
If I do a zoom in, everithing works, and then if I do a zoom out, the aplication works fine until it reaches the zoom value set when the button was pressed.
If I dont press the button, I can do zoom in and zoo out without any problems.

As others have already mentioned, it's possible for flutter to interact with native maps via platform channels, here's an example of doing just that in swift: https://github.com/syfgkjasdkn/map_and_flutter
Just in case someone might find it helpful.

flutter/plugins#892 added iOS support to the google_maps_flutter plugin.
The platform views embedding support, which the inline map is based on, is still in early preview (see https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/19030#issuecomment-437534853 ).
Open issues are tagged with the platform-views and/or maps labels, please upvote the issues you care about to help us prioritize.

Note that if you want to try it out on iOS you will need to enable the preview flag, see more details on:

I thinks this information should be included in the Readme.md for the library.
Are there any plans to move this to not be an in-line solution, so I can place buttons top of the map, a bottom sheet, a drawer layout?
feinstein
on 10 Nov 2018
I'm planning to improve the documentation soon.
Not sure what you mean regarding not being an in-line solution? Flutter widgets can be placed on top of the map now.
amirh
on 10 Nov 2018
Ohh, that's great! I remember reading there couldn't be any widgets on top of the map, as if it was a different rendering layer. Is this valid for ios and android?
feinstein
on 10 Nov 2018
After trying the maps plugin and messing around with platform views widgets, I came to this post, the very original post, and I can say that option 3 would have been a much better option.
I'd like to know, is there a reason why no one chose to create an actual widget for maps from scratch? I mean, the whole power for it is there! Skia is powerful enough to create it's own renderer for buildings and roads using simple graphics, or is it not possible to do so from Dart? I checked the code from rendering a simple box from Dart to the engine and I see it's possible.
I understand there's a technical reason we need platform views, but, maps needs "native" flutter SDK, or what's the plan for Fuchsia? Keep leveraging Android's SDK to render maps? It's nonsense!
We already have a platform view that seems to be working fine, might need optimizations, but the teams can now just drop this maps implementation (basically two, one per platform) and start working on an actual maps for Flutter that would technically work on any future platform that flutter gives support, including hummingbird, PC, Mac and Linux (and many more).
It's the best way, and you now it. The maps plugin for Unity3D doesn't use the native view, it's entirely custom for the engine and with amazing customizability! We need that for Flutter too, it's much more rich and useful than what a platform view of a map can do.
Also, it will bring an idea for us, developers, on how actually use the graphics engine on a low level to build other stuff.
I hope you guys don't take this wrong, but, I truly believe that the maps plugin through platform views already fulfilled his goal: to make possible native views to be rendered as widgets.
Oh, before I end this: I thought that maybe this could extend to WebViews (having an actual browser engine that renders using skia) is something useful, maybe not, maybe it's just too much (for now) but would solve the issue of having different renderers for WebViews per platform (like the intention of the flutter maps), however, an integration with chrome engine somehow would be amazing, I mean, if the platform is able of running chromium it could technically serve as a web renderer and provide a channel to render WebViews inside Flutter.
That's it! I'm going to bed now :)

I assume that the very long time plan is to develop something independent from the underlying platform (option 3). However, in the meanwhile, this was a "low hanging fruit", to support the current two main platforms. I have no doubt that before long, third party solutions will pop up, for example nothing stops noone from creating an OSM package.
