Google Maps API Android Issue

so I'm currently developing my first app. I'm just creating a simple map app with different markers on it. So it's all working perfectly well in the emulator. But when I run the published .apk on my phone, the map doesn't show. It has the GUI but there aren't any continents. Does this have something to do with the API I got? Note: I'm running the app on my Samsung Galaxy S6.

You need a new API key (generated with a release certificate) for the signed apk. Simply follow instructions on this page: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/signup?hl=en#release-cert

You'll find information you need under Display your app's certificate information title, RELEASE CERTIFICATE section.
