Its been a while about searching a solution to preview the exact location name from the longitude & latitude from location sensor from device and return with complete address of your location. I want to share you this simple and new idea that I know where been searching for! Here is the project link:
https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5d7f2d051786243a5b796e42/b85809ee-77af-4ec4-bcd2-73f5eb51529d/blocks
API FROM : Opencage data (OpenCage Geocoding API Documentation)
Thank you in advance !
Everything works for me on Android 8.1. Only, instead of the open block, I used the block pressing the button, because the map may not be initialized at the time of opening the screen
Hi, @junjoseph! 
This looks interesting! 
Please edit the category of this topic to #thunkable-cross-tutorials 
Thanks!
Hi junjoseph,
thanks for the post. i want to do this via mapbox i have seen that you used it to get distance. i want to use it for reverse lookup and having all the specific thing in a address separately like street name, house no. post code and location
i get this response i don’t know how to extract the data from it
could you please help me with the blocks thanks in advance
Hi, @Tijender_Singh !
Can you please provide the .json response as text instead of image?
Also, can you please bold out the properties which you want to get?
This would help a lot 
Thanks!
thanks for your response kartik14

hey @kartik14 please help me me know how to extract this info.
thanks in advance.
If the response is an object, the block get object from JSON is not needed. Delete block get object from JSON before response.
Thanks again
done that but still getting no response if i manually put it like text then i get the correct detail
What text you are in the response unit?
Label5 set Text < response ?
when lable 5 is set to response i get this :

Well, in this case, the block get object from JSON is needed. Bring it back. Should work.
I was going to say this only
Thanks!
Instead of using global variables as a function of the parameter block in my example (variable x)
Hi, i never used it… i get only these 3 options… can you help me know how x is being created.
