http://aprs.fi/page/api says right in the beginning:
"The aprs.fi API (Application Programming Interface) allows application
developers to query the aprs.fi database from their own web applications.
To use the API you need to sign up for an user account on aprs.fi - your
API key can be found in the account settings."
I guess that should be changed to something like "can be found in the
account settings (My Account)".

I am developing an APRS application for Android smartphones.

It uses your aprs.fi just from a browsing window and does not use any
API. So I don't have to make the user to login. Am I correct?

Yes, that's right. Browsing works without logging in, and if the site is
accessed using an (embedded) web browser, that shouldn't require any
API tricks.
Just make sure that the site's UI elements (such as the google maps
copyright texts, or aprs.fi site links & buttons) are not hidden, and that
they actually work.

Thanks for your reply and suggestions. I am using an embedded browser
to display your site.
