Android studio can not resolve com.google.android.gms.location.places.AutocompleteFilter

I am trying to implement a autocomplete places search following this article.

http://www.truiton.com/2015/04/android-places-api-autocomplete-getplacebyid/

I have followed all steps, and also added proper dependencies in my build.gradle file.

dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'
}

Also here are the meta data section in my manifest.

    <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
        android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
    <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
        android:value="@string/google_maps_key" />

also I have all the required SDK components installed. Still my android studio can not resolve the places part in the following imports:

import com.google.android.gms.location.places.AutocompleteFilter;
import com.google.android.gms.location.places.AutocompletePrediction;
import com.google.android.gms.location.places.AutocompletePredictionBuffer;
import com.google.android.gms.location.places.Places;

this is how they look as they can not find the Places part.

enter image description here

How can I resolve this issue? I am using SDK 19 for my app.

I was also faced with the same issue recently and adding this

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:11.4.0'

to my dependency under build.gradle(app) file solves the problem for me.

NB: make sure the version of your dependencies are all thesame if not you will encounter or errors

In play-services 9.2.0 the places API is no longer located in location. Those are now in their own places dependency. To resolve those you should add this to your build.gradle.

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:9.2.0'

check out

Places class is removed from android play services 9.2.0

The Places API was only added in Google Play services 7.0: you'll need to update your dependency to be at least 7.0.0, although the latest as of this answer is 15.0.0.

Note in almost every case, you should use selective APIs to only include the portions of Google Play services you need. In that case, you'd actually use a dependency such as

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:15.0.0'

Since Play Services version 9.2 we should add the following dependancy to access Google Places API.

 compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:11.0.2'

The latest version at the time of this writing.

The accepted answer for this thread was outdated.

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:7.5.0'

Just add it in your dependency (build.gradle [Module:Application]) Then file -> Invalidate caches/restart-> invalidate and Restart

Add compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:<version>, where <version> is perhaps at least: 9.2.1 under dependencies in your modules's build.gradle
