How to let user select a coordinate in a map?

Google search suggests using PlacePicker but the import fails at location using API 23 and the appropriate dependency in gradle compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.4.0"

import com.google.android.gms.location.places.ui.PlacePicker;

It seems this package is deprecated and not available anymore. How can I prompt the user to select an arbitrary point in a map?

You are currently only using gcm, and you need to use location.

Put this in your dependencies in your build.gradle, and your import will resolve successfully:

dependencies {
    //.......
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:8.4.0'
}
