Google GMSGeocoder always gives me null sublocality

I am currently developing an IOS app to reverse geocode coordinates using google maps geocoding library, specifically using GMSGeocoder class, I always get locality and street name, but the sublocality is always null, But when I use android geocoder class the sublocality is not null for the same coordinates and also when I use google geocoding api , the sublocality is not null. I also tried using Apple's geocoding class CLGeocoder and also It is null. Any help would be appreciated , Thank you.

This is a bug in Google Maps iOS SDK.

Google says fixed but it is not. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/78809393#comment24

I have added coordinates that i have issue with. You may also add. if they fix it then our issue will be fixed too.

In meantime, i have added a workaround in my app to use locality if subLocality is nil. This may not be desired by you but i am fine with displaying locality ie city till the time issue is fixed by Google.

Hope this helps. Ashish
