Google Map urls functions unsupported

Question

we want to control Google Maps on Android/IOS devices via urls, and we've looked through the docs: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/urls/android-intents#display_a_map

These are the functions we need but cannot find in the document: 1. Color Scheme(automatic, day, night) 2. Map type(default, satelite, terrain), Map detail(transist, traffic, bicycling, 3D, Street View) 3. Route options (avoid highways, avoid tolls, avoid ferries) 4. Search along route

Answer 1

If it applies to your use case/implementation, you might want to consider using Maps SDK for Android. This will generally handle styled maps (e.g color scheme, etc.), map types (e.g terrain, satellite, etc), map details like Street View and Traffic Layers.

However for the route options, you need to use a separate web service - Directions API.

Hope this helps!
