Hi Arubaman, It's a bit hard to understand what the problem is. If you're saying that it zooms in to your current location, instead of centering on where the pin drops, I believe that's the default behaviour if you have Show User Location set in the Advanced Properties for that screen. If you don't, I think it should center on the pin. Can you be a bit more clear on the exact issue? Mark

Zooms in, but the map doesn't refresh just shows grey grid until page is manually refreshed, by either moving screen or refresh button.

Hi guys, As the background does work when you refresh or move the screen, and you're not having issues in the emulator, I don't think it is a problem on the buzztouch side of things. Maybe it has something to do with the speed of your internet connection? Available cache on your device? Not really sure what to advise.

Hi androstendione, You do need to change your Google Maps API key from debug to release for it to work on an actual device. Tons of resources in the "How To" section of our new website, including this: http://www.buzztouch.com/resources/Obtaining_a_Google_Maps_API_Key_v1.0.pdf
