@Vaiper_watafai , I just ran into a similar problem and I think I have a solution. I think it may be a Thunkable Height issue, rather than a problem with the Google API. I created an app to illustrate the problem. [https://x.thunkable.com/copy/4e2548820f847693d87746cf78efaad8](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/4e2548820f847693d87746cf78efaad8) On the screen there are 3 columns, each with a map inside. The first column is set to height Fit Contents, the second is fill container, and the third is an absolute height. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/e/ce0924f9a39aac7cc3cb3c9ce112aef4fc2a3145.png) When I view the app on my android device, the first column (fit contents) is completely collapsed (blue border). The other 2 columns are sized properly and show the associated maps. ![Screenshot_20201210-052507_Thunkable](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/f/7fa39a0a2343eb7fdac7e2d4d8e67ed3cdef8727.jpeg) I see in your app you have 2 columns. To debug the map issue, try setting those columns to an absolute height of something very small, like 1 or 10. Does the map then show up? If so, it may be an issue with the column sizing like I had.
