# Expo Maps

A library that provides access to Google Maps on Android and Apple Maps on iOS.
Android, iOS

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](/llms.txt). Use this file to discover all available pages.

> **This library is currently in [alpha](/more/release-statuses#alpha) and will frequently experience breaking changes.** It is not available in the Expo Go app – use [development builds](/develop/development-builds/introduction) to try it out.

## Installation

```sh
npx expo install expo-maps
```

If you are installing this in an [existing React Native app](/bare/overview), make sure to [install `expo`](/bare/installing-expo-modules) in your project.

  

[Watch: Expo Maps Deep Dive](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDCuaIQ9vd0) — Add Google Maps and Apple Maps to your Expo app with the expo-maps library.

## Configuration

Expo Maps provides access to the platform native map APIs on Android and iOS.

-   **Apple Maps (available on iOS only)**. No additional configuration is required to use it after installing this package.
-   **Google Maps (available on Android only)**. While Google provides a Google Maps SDK for iOS, Expo Maps supports it exclusively on Android. If you want to use Google Maps on iOS, you can look into using an [alternative library](https://reactnative.directory/) or [writing your own](/modules/overview).

### Google Cloud API setup

**Before you can use Google Maps on Android**, you need to register a Google Cloud API project, enable the Maps SDK for Android, and add the associated configuration to your Expo project.

Set up Google Maps on Android

> If you have already registered a project for another Google service on Android, such as Google Sign In, you enable the **Maps SDK for Android** on your project and jump to step 4.

**Register a Google Cloud API project and enable the Maps SDK for Android**

-   Open your browser to the [Google API Manager](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis) and create a project.
-   Once it's created, go to the project and enable the **Maps SDK for Android**.

**Copy your app's SHA-1 certificate fingerprint**

-   **If you are deploying your app to the Google Play Store**, you'll need to [upload your app binary to Google Play console](/submit/android) at least once. This is required for Google to generate your app signing credentials.
-   Go to the **[Google Play Console](https://play.google.com/console) > (your app) > Release > Setup > App integrity > App Signing**.
-   Copy the value of **SHA-1 certificate fingerprint**.

**Create an API key**

-   Go to [Google Cloud Credential manager](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials) and click **Create Credentials**, then **API Key**.
-   In the modal, click **Edit API key**.
-   Under **Key restrictions** > **Application restrictions**, choose **Android apps**.
-   Under **Restrict usage to your Android apps**, click **Add an item**.
-   Add your `android.package` from **app.json** (for example: `com.company.myapp`) to the package name field.
-   Then, add the **SHA-1 certificate fingerprint's** value from step 2.
-   Click **Done** and then click **Save**.

**Add the API key to your project**

-   Copy your **API Key** into your **app.json** under the `android.config.googleMaps.apiKey` field.
-   Create a new development build, and you can now use the Google Maps API on Android with `expo-maps`.

## Permissions

To display the user's location on the map, you need to declare and request location permission beforehand. You can configure this using its built-in [config plugin](/config-plugins/introduction) if you use config plugins in your project ([Continuous Native Generation (CNG)](/workflow/continuous-native-generation)). The plugin allows you to configure various properties that cannot be set at runtime and require building a new app binary to take effect. If your app does **not** use CNG, then you'll need to manually configure the library.

### Example app.json with config plugin

```json
{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      [
        "expo-maps",
        {
          "requestLocationPermission": true,
          "locationPermission": "Allow $(PRODUCT_NAME) to use your location"
        }
      ]
    ]
  }
}
```

### Configurable properties

| Name | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `requestLocationPermission` | `false` | A boolean to add permissions to **AndroidManifest.xml** and **Info.plist**. |
| `locationPermission` | `"Allow $(PRODUCT_NAME) to use your location"` | Only for: iOS. A string to set the [`NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription`](#permission-nslocationwheninuseusagedescription) permission message. |

## Usage

```tsx
import { AppleMaps, GoogleMaps } from 'expo-maps';
import { Platform, Text } from 'react-native';

export default function App() {
  if (Platform.OS === 'ios') {
    return <AppleMaps.View style={{ flex: 1 }} />;
  } else if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
    return <GoogleMaps.View style={{ flex: 1 }} />;
  } else {
    return <Text>Maps are only available on Android and iOS</Text>;
  }
}
```

## Permissions

### Android

To show the user's location on the map, the `expo-maps` library requires the following permissions:

-   `ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION`: for approximate device location
-   `ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION`: for precise device location

| Android Permission | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` | Allows an app to access approximate location. |
| `ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` | Allows an app to access precise location. |
| `FOREGROUND_SERVICE` | Allows a regular application to use Service.startForeground. |
| `FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` | Allows a regular application to use Service.startForeground with the type "location". |
| `ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION` | Allows an app to access location in the background. |

### iOS

The following usage description keys are used by this library:

| Info.plist Key | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription` | A message that tells the user why the app is requesting access to the user’s location information while the app is running in the foreground. |
