Hi all. I’m new here.

Is there a way I can allow a user to select a radius from their current location? And from this I want to be able to return specific things from google maps like all “x” within the radius

Hey @chris85.spainj0 and @aaqil,

At the moment there isn’t any function available that can do this - sorry about that.

Can you let us know a little more about the type of apps you’re trying to build so we can get a better understanding of what you’re trying to do.

Thanks.
