Google maps sdk for ios - is there an option for styles - styles

Is there a way to achieve this kind of style with Google maps?

No.
Google maps for Android and iOS use v2. Custom styling is only available on v3. This feature request has been open for nearly two years so it's unlikely to be implemented any time soon.
Your only option is to use javascript styles and wrap it up as a web-view or look at another map provider like MapBox

Google launched styled maps for iOS and Android along with a new styling wizard that allows you to apply the same style across all different platforms, including Maps JavaScript API and Static Maps. There are even some new code and style samples available for iOS.

ANDROID: Implement Google Maps direction in my app

I would like to add to an app the directions from the Google maps as seen bellow, but the information to come from the google maps when I am starting the navigation (a route on the main Maps App. Would that be possible? And if yes, where would I start?
EDIT: This post describes better the issue I'm having, and it even provides a Kotlin library that can be used.
You can use Mapbox API for Navigation. It's a very great library to use.
Check this tutorial for implementation.
Check the example that you want exactly.
Basic UI Navigation Example
BETA => Turn-by-turn navigation
This can be solved using the notification Listener Service. There is a Kotlin library that can be used.

Buildfire: How can I get my plugin to match the rest of the app?

I am making a new plugin and I want it to match the rest of the app in terms of styles, fonts, colors, etc. Is there anyway that buildfire accounts for this situation? I read that including bootstrap might help but I do not know in what way specifically.
BuildFire's SDK automatically injects CSS into your plugin unless you specifically ask not to. If you develop your plugin using standard Bootstrap guidelines then thats all you have to do.
That being said if you want to get a JSON object back with all the appearance settings you can do so through the SDK. See more here https://github.com/BuildFire/sdk/wiki/How-to-use-Appearance#buildfireappearancegetappthemecallback
If you want to turn off the auto-injection of theme or bootstrap you can do so through meta tags. See more here https://github.com/BuildFire/sdk/wiki/BuildFire-MetaTags
I hope this helps

Is there any library available in Xamarin forms for Token Input view?

I want multiple strings to be added and deleted in a view. I can achieve this by using native libraries.
Native iOS: CLTokenInputView-Swift-master
Native android: TokenAutoComplete-master
I want to implement this in Xamarin forms for both iOS and android. Is there any way to achieve this? Or any library files available?
I think what you are looking for is something like the TagEntryView. It may not do everything you want but it is open-source so maybe you could get the important parts out of there and customize it as you like.

Chrome: Google Cast Retrieve Available Device List

I worked with the pre-release SDK before the official SDK was released. Before I could retrieve a list of devices and display them however I wanted. For example, Google Music still has this functionality.
With the official release, is there any other way, besides having the Chromecast Extension popup with the list, to show available devices? I've been searching the documentation for an answer with no results.
Thanks!
No, the functionality is now handled by the extension to make it more uniform across all apps that use this feature, and to avoid confusion as to what the cast icon is in the chrome itself on the top right and what is the cast icon inside the player. Now both provide the same functionality if you are within a cast-enabled app.

Google Maps on website in Android OS

Hello I have this webiste www.liiklusinfo.ee and it's basically designed to work on web browsers, but is it possible to see that map on an Android mobile-phone? I can see that it is possible, because http://kraater.eu/en/map shows up on my android phone, but why isn't my website showing up? When I open the page, it states that I must get a new API code, but I have all the right API keys..
It's definitely due to the fact that you are using Maps API v2 instead of v3.
"http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&hl=en&sensor=false&key=ABQIAAAAzrzbFLxHQWFbTQr9PqQ_HhRwAQ6CP1ccuJFaeFcXqlGX2NtZ2xQSe3YINEpjxiDi-m_GSubdYtbMEg">
V2 is causing some issues which is preventing v3 from loading. You may be able to find the route of those problems, but it would just be easier to switch to v3.
I would recommend reading this guide:
http://blogs.missouristate.edu/web/2010/05/12/google-maps-api-v3-developing-for-mobile-devices/
I'd suggest upgrading to the version 3 api, the tag line is V3: The Solution for Maps Applications for both the Desktop and Mobile Devices after all.
This should solve your problem. Moreover, i can see the map on the opera mini browser on my android just not the other.
