Look into maps api

sethgho commented 10 years ago

I got the Google apps working on the Genymotion emulator. It was super simple. Just dragging and dropping a couple of zip files onto the emulator. I just followed these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528952%5d

I've only done it for the 4.1.1 emulator so far.

The Google Maps v2 API looks nice. The custom view for map markers looks super straight forward: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/infowindows#custom_info_windows

custom markers: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/marker#add_a_marker

and polylines look straightforward too: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/shapes#polylines
