Autocomplete doesn't work without device location? #85

Open xJon opened 3 years ago

xJon commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug When the device's location is turned off, and therefore also Google's location service, the picker will become non-usable as there will be no autocomplete options.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Disable device location
  2. Use PlacePicker()
  3. Answer NO THANKS for enabling device location & using Google's location service
  4. Try to search & see error

Expected behavior I'm not sure, but it didn't seem to be clear the package only works when device location is turned on.

Additional context I tried setting forceAndroidLocationManager: true, which did not help.

Try setting 'useCurrentLocation' to false when a user disabled the location service.

Hi, I've tried that and it did not work. I also just tried setting useCurrentLocation to false, and the autocomplete does not work when location services are off.

Hi, is there any workaround for this issue, apart from requiring location services & permissions before using the package? Thank you!
