Android Question Google maps route

[AHilberink]

Hi,

I want to try to integrate GoogleMaps for the use of routeplanning. I am on LatLonA and I want to LatLonB. When it's possible: Starting the default GoogleMapsApp is also fine.

Is this possible using one of GoogleMaps libraries and which one?

Best regards,
André

Starting the default GoogleMapsApp is also fine.

    Dim mapIntent As Intent
    Dim geouri As String = "google.navigation:q=Triererstrasse 36, Aachen" ' Route to address
    mapIntent.Initialize(mapIntent.ACTION_VIEW,geouri)
    mapIntent.WrapAsIntentChooser("Please choose App")
    StartActivity(mapIntent)

or

Dim in As Intent
   in.Initialize(in.ACTION_VIEW, $"google.navigation:q=${Latitude},${Longitude}"$)
   in.SetPackage("com.google.android.apps.maps") 'this method is only available in v8.8+. Example of calling it with JavaObject: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/inline-java-question.97866/#post-616946
   StartActivity(in)
End Sub
