How Find The Closest Places apps work


I'm new to android app programming , and i'm looking to built an app which find the closest (specific) places to a user . i have some java programming skills but i don't know how and where to begin .


Solution

    1. Use LocationServices to fetch the user's current location
    2. SignUp for Google API Console and create a key for Places API
    3. Now you can use Places API for Android to get direct results or use Places API for Web to make web request in background and parse JSON result.
