May 2014 - New release of Google Maps Android API

[Mark McDonald (Google)]

Hi all, 

A new version of the Google Maps Android API v2 is now available.

This release gives you a couple of new features that lets you do more than just display a base map.

- Added Street View for embedding and controlling panoramic 360-degree views.
- Added functionality to indoor maps so that you can respond to indoor and level change events, and replace the level picker with your own.

See here for past release notes:

The API is distributed as part of the Google Play SDK. To start using the latest version, install the upgrade from the Android SDK Manager.

The latest Gradle dependency string can be found at

Please continue filing your bugs and feature requests in the issue tracker (https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/). Additionally, if you have technical question, head over to Stack Overflow and tag your question with both “android” and “google-maps”.
