Check out the docs for com.google.android.maps.MapController. Retrieve the MapController associated with your map view then use methods like setZoom() and setCenter() to control the map's display.
If you want the map to be centered at the device's location then it'll be up to you to use a LocationManager to retrieve the device's location. You can then use MapController's setCenter() to move the map to the device. - Dave On Aug 9, 1:25 am, Buddy123 <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am creating an app that will display a map using the Google maps app > on Android.
