How To Show Placepicker Location On A Google Map?

My app uses the google maps api and the google places api. Everything works perfectly until I search for a certain place, when I search for a place and then select it from the resu

Solution 1:

You need to use the data Intent to get the location of the Place that the user selected, add a Marker to the map, and move the camera so that it's centered over the selected Place:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (requestCode == PLACE_PICKER_REQUEST) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            Place place = PlacePicker.getPlace(data, this);
            String placeName = String.format("Place: %s", place.getName());
            String placeAddress =  String.format("Address: %s", place.getAddress());
            LatLng toLatLng = place.getLatLng();

            // Add Marker
            marker = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(toLatLng)
                    .title(placeName).snippet(placeAddress)
                    .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_MAGENTA)));

            // Move Camera to selected place
            mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(latLng,11));

        }
    }
}
