nikoloz110 commented 3 years ago

I have it set like this

showLocation({
      latitude: Number(latLng[0]),
      longitude: Number(latLng[1]),
      alwaysIncludeGoogle: true,
      appsWhiteList: ["google-maps", "apple-maps"],
    });

but I am still seeing 'Bolt' & 'Yandex" suggestions 161796626_202205154990364_1782361589637028958_n while opening the map android 10

Hey, this is actually related to #138.

The library correctly detects that only one option is available based on the whitelist you've set ('google-maps'), so it immediately opens that app. Unfortunately, Bolt and Yandex Go both 'hijack' Google Maps by telling Android that they're able to open maps.google.com, which is why the system native app chooser is then shown.

There's unfortunately not too much we can do about that, except for switching to Android Intents.
