If you use @ionic-native/google-maps, please tell the package.json (only @ionic-native/core and @ionic-native/google-maps are fine mostly) "@ionic-native/core": "^4.18.0", "@ionic-native/google-maps": "^4.15.1"

Current behavior:

this.map.addEventListener(GoogleMapsEvent.POI_CLICK).subscribe(event => {
            console.log(event);
        });

upon clicking a POI (with an apostrophe in the name) in the app: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier is shown in the console

Digging into the error, I find:

if('map_0_1384549610302' in plugin.google.maps){plugin.google.maps['map_0_1384549610302']({evtName: 'poi_click', callback:'_onMapEvent', args:['ChIJAAAAAAAAAAARaC_Ym6jkMgg', 'University ofWisconsin - Madison'sBotanical…', new plugin.google.maps.LatLng(43.073627, -89.404134)]});}

It looks as if apostrophes not being escaped is causing the issue. This works fine with POI's that don't have apostrophes in their names.
