In my mapView I have an overlay in my current location but I need to insert a direction to an editText and that my map add an overlay there.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Yes it is possible. You will need to:

1. Get the text from the input box
2. Lookup the address using Google Goelocation API
3. Parse the results
4. Add a marker at the lat/lng of the destination
