Your question

This package used to work well in my Android app. However I recently started getting: "[log] Failed to get place name: PlatformException(IO_ERROR, fsmr: DEADLINE_EXCEEDED: deadline exceeded after 4.904684844s. Name resolution delay 0.070036719 seconds. [closed=[], open=[[buffered_nanos=4905356874, waiting_for_connection]]], null, null)". Not sure whether this is due to usage limits, the links provided (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/restrictions/package-summary) do not give information.

Hi @zhubarb,

The DEADLINE_EXCEEDED is an internal error of Android's Geocoder SDK (which is what the geocoding plugin uses to convert coordinates into address information and vice versa).

Android's Geocoder SDK internally makes HTTP requests to Googles services todo the lookup, the DEADLINE_EXCEEDED means that the Google services didn't respond in time.

Unfortunately the Geocoder SDK doesn't provide any control on timeout settings so there is not much we can do about the error. If you require more stable services, consider using a premium solution.
