The minimum iOS version is now 11.0. **Deprecations** - ARMv7 32-bit architecture no longer supported. - `GMSCoordinateBounds` is deprecated, replaced by `GMSPlacesViewportInfo`. **Improvements** - The Places SDK for iOS is no longer dependant on the `GoogleMapsBase` framework. ## Version 4.2.0 - March 8, 2021 - Version bump, no changes. This version is functionally identical to v.4.1.0. - Changes are coming in version 5.0.0: - Support for iOS 10.0 will be dropped in version 5.0.0. - The `viewport` property in Place Details will change in version 5.0.0. - To avoid unexpected errors, be sure to [specify a version number](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/versions.md.txt) in your Podfile or Cartfile. This will ensure that your builds remain stable against a known version, and will not switch to the next major version until you are ready to update your code. ## Version 4.1.0 - December 8, 2020 **Features:** - Fixed an issue where the autocomplete widget background color was not correctly flipped when in Dark Mode. ## Version 4.0.0 - October 13, 2020 **Deprecations** - Support for iOS 9.0 has been dropped. The new minimum is iOS 10.0. - The new minimum version of Xcode is 11.7. - The deprecated `openNowStatus` property in `GMSPlace` is no longer supported. Instead, call the functions [`isOpen` or `isOpenAtDate`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlace.md.txt#public-member-functions) on the `GMSPlace` object. To use these replacement functions, specify `GMSPlaceFieldOpeningHours` and `GMSPlaceFieldUTCOffsetMinutes` in the [Place Autocomplete](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/autocomplete) or [Place Details](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/place-details#place-fields) request. - The deprecated [`autocompleteBounds`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController) and [`autocompleteBoundsMode`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController) properties in `GMSAutocompleteViewController` are no longer supported. See release notes from [v3.9.0](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/release-notes-archive.md.txt#2020-05-26) for alternatives. - The deprecated `initWithBounds:filter` method in `GMSAutocompleteFetcher` is no longer supported. See release notes from [v3.10.0](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/release-notes-archive.md.txt#2020-08-10) for the alternative. - The deprecated `setAutocompleteBoundsUsingNorthEastCorner:SouthWestCorner` helper method in [GMSAutocompleteViewController](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController), [GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController), and [GMSAutocompleteTableDataSource](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteTableDataSource), is no longer supported. See release notes from [v3.10.0](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/release-notes-archive.md.txt#2020-08-10) for the alternative. - `GMSPlaceField` now uses the `NS_OPTIONS` macro instead of `NS_ENUM` for better Swift support. Read more about [Migrating to GMSPlaceField as NS_OPTIONS](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/migrate-nsoptions). [Summary of deprecated iOS SDK replacement methods](https://developers.google.com/maps/deprecations.md.txt#places-v4-deprecation-table). The maximum supporting version for the above deprecated properties, methods and macro is [v3.10.0](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/release-notes-archive.md.txt#2020-08-10). ## Version 3.10.0 - August 10, 2020 **Note:** - To build apps using the Places SDK for iOS, the current minimum IDE version supported is Xcode 11.5. **Features** - There is a new Places Swift Demo App in GooglePlaces cocoapods. **Deprecations** - The `setAutocompleteBoundsUsingNorthEastCorner:SouthWestCorner` helper method in [GMSAutocompleteViewController](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController), [GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteResultsViewController), and [GMSAutocompleteTableDataSource](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteTableDataSource), is deprecated. Instead, use [`locationBias`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFilter.md.txt) or [`locationRestriction`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFilter.md.txt) in the `GMSAutocompleteFilter` class. - The `initWithBounds:filter` method is deprecated. Instead, use [`initWithFilter:`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFetcher#-initwithfilter:) in `GMSAutocompleteFetcher.h`. ## Version 3.9.0 - May 26, 2020 **Features** - [`GMSPlace.BusinessStatus`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlace.md.txt) is a new property that returns the current operational status for businesses (operational, closed temporarily, or closed permanently). This new property is returned if you make a place details request, and include the [`GMSPlaceFieldBusinessStatus`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Enums/GMSPlacesBusinessStatus.md.txt) field. - Plus codes are now supported in the autocomplete APIs, and will return plus codes suggestions include the [`GMSPlaceFieldPlusCode`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlusCode.md.txt) field. **Deprecations** - The `GMSCoordinateBounds` class is deprecated.

This applies to both the programmatic API as well as the Autocomplete Widget API. For more details, see the [deprecations page](https://developers.google.com/maps/deprecations.md.txt#gmscoordinatebounds_in_place_autocomplete_-). **Bug fixes** - [`locationBias`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFilter.md.txt) and [`locationRestriction`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFilter.md.txt) properties in `GMSAutocompleteFilter` are now directly accessible in Swift. ## Version 3.8.2 - May 18, 2020 - Version bump, no changes. This version is functionally identical to v.3.8.0. ## Version 3.8.0 - February 18, 2020 **Features:** - Location Bias/Restriction support added to [GMSAutocompleteFilter](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSAutocompleteFilter.md.txt). - Place Autocomplete now supports [filtering by multiple countries](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/autocomplete#filter_results_by_country) (up to five). **Note:** - To build apps using the Places SDK for iOS, the current minimum IDE version supported is Xcode 11.0. ## Version 3.7.0 - December 2, 2019 **Features:** - Autocomplete Predictions (GMSAutocompletePrediction.h) now return the straight-line distance in meters from the optionally specified location `origin` property in the Autocomplete Filter (GMSAutocompleteFilter.h). Call `distanceMeters` on the `GMSAutocompletePrediction` instance to get this value. If the `origin` property is not set, no distance value will be returned. ## Version 3.6.0 - October 29, 2019 **Note:** - Added local caching for `UIImages` fetched using `loadPlacePhoto:callback` such that calling the method twice in a row returns the same `UIImage`. ## Version 3.5.0 - October 08, 2019 **Note:** - \ no longer transitively includes classes from GoogleMapsBase.h, so if you use the GMSCoordinateBounds class in your code, you must now #import \ as well. ## Version 3.4.0 - September 04, 2019 - Version bump, no changes. This version is functionally identical to v.3.3.0. ## Version 3.3.0 - July 29, 2019 **Features:** - Added a new field [`GMSPlaceFieldUTCOffsetMinutes`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlace.md.txt#a30edd348609e398a10b1f596115af1db) to `GMSPlace`, to represent the UTC offset in minutes for the timezone of the place. - Added a new method [`isOpen`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlace.md.txt#public-member-functions) to `GMSPlace`, to query whether the place is currently open. - Added a new method [`isOpenAtDate`](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Classes/GMSPlace.md.txt#public-member-functions) to `GMSPlace`, to query whether the place is open at the specified date. **Improvements:** - Programmatic autocomplete now trims blank space from query text, as with the Autocomplete widget. **Resolved issues:** - Fixed an occasional scrolling glitch in the autocomplete results view (this would occur when the device orientation changed). ## Version 3.2.0 - July 8, 2019 **Improvements:** - `findAutocompletePredictionsFromQuery` API now accepts a nil value for the `GMSAutocompleteSessionToken parameter`, if the user does not want to be billed by session. - Autocomplete widget no longer returns "no results" for leading whitespaces. - Smaller binary sizes. ## Version 3.1.0 - April 16, 2019 **Improvements** - GMSAddressComponents API. - Now returns an array of types associated with each address component. - Deprecates the older singular type in favor of the new array of types. - Improved Error Handling - Common error messages are now returned from the server back to clients. **Resolved issues** - Fixed inaccurate references of Places API in public facing code. ## Version 3.0.2 - January 31, 2019 **Resolved issues** - The GooglePlaces [sample](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/code-samples) has been fixed. ## Version 3.0.0 - January 29, 2019 **Features** - Added support for using fields to enable specifying the types of place data to return. - The Place object can now return the total number of reviews for each place. - The Place object now returns business opening hours. - Added support for [Plus codes](https://plus.codes/).

This feature will be turned off on July 29, 2019, and will no longer be available after that date. - The `openNowStatus` property is no longer supported, and should not be used. - Support for iOS 8.0 has been dropped. The new minimum is iOS 9.0. ## Place Picker Old Style Removed - November 1, 2018 **Features:** - Removed support for the old basemap style for the Place Picker. The opt-in and opt-out API options (see below) are no longer supported. This applies to all versions of the Places SDK for iOS. See the [blog post](https://maps-apis.googleblog.com/2018/02/updated-basemap-style-for-google-maps.html) for more information about the new style. ## Place Picker New Style Default - June 28, 2018 **Features:** - Enabled the new basemap style for the Place Picker by default. You can still opt-out temporarily if you need time to modify your app to accommodate the new style. If you do, please follow [Issue 72853629](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/72853629) which contains the timeline for end of support of the previous basemap style. We will be posting updates there as they are available. To opt-out, use the code snippet below. The best place to do this in your app is right after providing your API key, via `GMSServices provideAPIKey`. You must be using at least Version 2.6.0 in order to opt-out. If you had previously opted-in to the new basemap style, this should replace the code you added to opt-in. See the [blog post](https://maps-apis.googleblog.com/2018/02/updated-basemap-style-for-google-maps.html) for more information about the new style. NSArray *options = @[@"B3H9HE845CFHYG"]; BOOL didSetApiOptions = [GMSServices provideAPIOptions:options]; NSLog(@"Options were set: %d", didSetApiOptions); ## Version 2.7.0 - April 2018 **Note:** - Support for Xcode 8.0 has been dropped. The new minimum is Xcode 9.0. ## Place Picker New Style Opt-In - February 2018 **Features:** - Enabled opt-in to the new basemap style for the Place Picker. To opt-in, use the code snippet below.

The new minimum is Xcode 8.0. ## Version 2.4 - August 2, 2017 > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - The Add Place feature is deprecated as of June 30, 2017. This feature will be turned down on June 30, 2018, and will no longer be available after that date. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - The armv7s architecture in the frameworks has been removed. Devices which previously used armv7s are still supported using the armv7 architecture. All applications using the default architecture settings in any supported version of Xcode should not notice any change. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - The layout of the static frameworks has changed. There is no longer a Versions directory. The contents of Versions/A has been moved to the root directory of the framework. Developers who manually integrate frameworks with their project should take additional care during the upgrade. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - Support for Xcode 7.3 will be dropped with 2.5.0. ## Version 2.3.1 - June 19, 2017 **Resolved Issues** - Fixed an issue resulting in a crash when receiving photos for certain places. ([Issue 36575500](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/36575500).) ## Version 2.3 - May 30, 2017 **Features** - Expanded the number of scenarios where you can use the place picker with the addition of GMSPlacePickerViewController. The old GMSPlacePicker is now deprecated. **Improvements** - Dropped support for iOS 7, which enabled the use of modern core data threading models. This means that applications should be able to use -com.apple.CoreData.ConcurrencyDebug 1 when debugging with iOS 10 devices. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - The armv7s architecture in the frameworks will be removed in 2.4. Devices which previously used armv7s can continue to be supported using the armv7 architecture. All applications using the default architecture settings in any supported version of Xcode shouldn't notice any change. ## Version 2.2 - February 14, 2017 **Resolved Issues** - Fixes an issue where the Place Picker viewport was not being centered correctly ([Issue 11206](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=11206).) - Fixes an issue where the Autocomplete error delegate method was not called in all conditions. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** - iOS 7 support is intended to be dropped starting with 2.3. 2.2.x will be the last release series to support iOS 7. ## Version 2.1.1 - November 8, 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Fixes an issue which caused rotation of the place picker to move the marker. - Reduces the timeout on calls to `currentPlace(callback:)` to match Android ([Issue 10563](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=10563).) ## Version 2.1 - September 22, 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Added workaround for the `userEmail` triggering false positives during submission to the Apple app store ([Issue 10508](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=10508).) - Errors returned from lookUpPlaceID(_:callback:) now have the correct error domain and codes. - Small fixes to RTL support in the place picker. - Minor reliability improvements for the autocomplete widget and place picker. ## Version 2.0.1 - July 29, 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Array properties are now correctly typed when accessed from Swift. ([Issue 10183](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=10183).) ## Version 2.0.0 - July 26, 2016 **Improvements** - This release splits the Places API from the Maps SDK. Previously, if you wanted to use the Places API you had to include all of GoogleMaps. As a result of the split, the final size of the Places API binary is 70% smaller than the previous combined binary. If you are using only the Maps SDK you will not be affected unless you have pinned your dependency on GoogleMaps to a version earlier than 2.0. In this case, you should update this restriction in your Podfile. If you are using the Places API, see [Migrating to Places SDK for iOS](https://developers.google.com/places/ios-sdk/client-migration). - [Places SDK demos](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/code-samples) are now available separately from Maps demo apps. **Resolved Issues** - The Places framework is now available as a download for manual installation. For details, see [Get Started](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/start#step-2-install-the-api). ([Issue 8856](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=8856).) - The Places API no longer requests permission to access the user's location on behalf of the app. This means that existing code which calls GMSPlacesClient.currentPlaceWithCallback(_:) must be updated to ensure that the location permission has been granted beforehand. ## Version 1.13.2 - May 12, 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Added a workaround to avoid the false positive for the non-public API imageWithName: selector. ([Issue 9704](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9704).) ## Version 1.13.1 - May 02, 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Fixed an application hang when using a UIView with autolayout enabled as an info window or as a marker iconView. ([Issue 9525](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9525).) - Changed lookUpPlaceID to not call its callback twice in error scenarios. ([Issue 9310](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9310).) ## Version 1.13.0 - March 29, 2016 **Features** - Autocomplete widgets in the Places API now provide options for custom styling. - UIView based markers. Marker content can now show advanced animations by providing a custom view hierarchy to be displayed through the iconView property. See the [documentation](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/marker.md.txt#use_the_markers_iconview_property) for details. ([Issue 5203](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=5203).) - Info windows can now have their custom views animated. Set tracksInfoWindowChanges on the associated marker to YES to enable real-time updates. ([Issue 5559](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=5559).) - Map rendering now defaults to 60fps on modern iOS devices. Set the new preferredFrameRate property on GMSMapView to revert to the old behavior (Conservative) or a new low frame rate option to save battery (PowerSave). ([Issue 5066](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=5066).) - Added mapViewSnapshotReady: to GMSMapViewDelegate which fires when map content, including markers and other overlays, has been fully rendered. **Resolved Issues** - GMSAutocompleteViewController now works when used in a storyboard. - Added missing Place Type constants. ([Issue 8121](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=8121).) - GMSCoordinateBounds initWithVisibleRegion: now chooses correct bounds for large viewports. - Added a workaround to avoid a graphical glitch in snapshots taken using pre iOS 7 methods when the My Location button is disabled. ([Issue 9173](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9173).) ## Version 1.12.3 - February 2016 **Resolved Issues** - Fixed corruption in included bitcode that caused Xcode archive action to fail. ([Issue 9368](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=9368).) - Added a workaround for a limitation in Xcode 6.4 which was failing to compile the included headers. ## Version 1.12.2 - February 2016 **Features** - Added place photos to the Places API. ([Issue 8202](https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=8202).) - Added structured address components to GMSPlace objects.
