Using a Google Maps API v2


I want to make an app that uses Google Maps Android API V2. So I searched the Internet about tutorials and I found a lot of useful tutorials. In the tutorials they said that, to use Google Maps Android API V2 I have to get a a Google Maps API key. Ok so far so good.

My question is

  • Will this key work on multiple phones using my app ?
  • Do I have to create an individual Google Maps API key for each new phone that downloads my app from the store ?

Solution

  • Will this key work on multiple phones using my app?

    Yes, One Application with proper Map-Key can works on many devices. You dont need to create device wise map-key.

    Do I have to create an individual Google Maps API key for each new phone that downloads my app from the store?

    No. One Key is enough.
