How to smoothly move the current position in Google Maps?

In my Android project I need that when the vehicle is moving, the marker position should also move smoothly, but when location is changed, the marker is jumping from one position to another, it is not moving smoothly.
I searched a lot, but did not get the result.
I do not know what the best way is. Please give me full guidance.
thank you very much

CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()

.build();
CameraUpdate cu = CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition);
map.animateCamera(cu);
this will move to the latlng selected with animation(Camera position
and camera update is used)

Override this method :
#Override
public void onLocationChange(Location location) {
LatLng latLng = new LatLng(location.latitude, location.longitude);
refreshMapPosition(latLng, 45)
}
private void refreshMapPosition(LatLng pos, float angle) {
CameraPosition.Builder positionBuilder = new CameraPosition.Builder();
positionBuilder.target(pos);
positionBuilder.zoom(15f);
positionBuilder.bearing(angle);
positionBuilder.tilt(60);
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(positionBuilder.build()));
}
This overridden method was implementing on GoogleMap classes and map variable is variable that we define to load google map instance.

I was able to solve my problem by adding this line of code in the onConnected method:
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);
I had not used LocationServices because FusedLocationApi is deprecated.

You need to add this on your onMapReady method:
mMap.setOnMarkerDragListener(this);

Add following line in onMapReady()
mMap.setOnMarkerDragListener(this);
Get your marker new position and in onMarkerDragEnd() and fetch address from new LatLng:
// New Marker Position
LatLng position = marker.getPosition();
// Remove Old Marker
mCurrLocationMarker.remove();
// Add New marker position
markerOptions.position(position);
// Add Title on Marker
markerOptions.title(getCompleteAddressString(position.latitude, position.longitude));
// Set Draggable
markerOptions.draggable(true);
// Set Icon of Marker
markerOptions.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_MAGENTA));
// Add marker on map
mCurrLocationMarker = mMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
// Show Info window on marker
mCurrLocationMarker.showInfoWindow();

how to set my google Map app to be show my current location as default? [duplicate]

Actually my problem is I am not getting current location latitude and longitude I tried so many ways.I know that this question already asked in SO I tried that answers also still I didn't get answer.Please help me
Code:
if (googleMap == null) {
googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
R.id.map)).getMap();
// check if map is created successfully or not
if (googleMap == null) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Sorry! unable to create maps", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
}
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
Location myLocation = googleMap.getMyLocation(); //Nullpointer exception.........
LatLng myLatLng = new LatLng(myLocation.getLatitude(),
myLocation.getLongitude());
CameraPosition myPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()
.target(myLatLng).zoom(17).bearing(90).tilt(30).build();
googleMap.animateCamera(
CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(myPosition));

Please check the sample code for the Google Maps Android API v2. Using this will solve your problem.
private void setUpMapIfNeeded() {
// Do a null check to confirm that we have not already instantiated the map.
if (mMap == null) {
// Try to obtain the map from the SupportMapFragment.
mMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
// Check if we were successful in obtaining the map.
if (mMap != null) {
mMap.setOnMyLocationChangeListener(new GoogleMap.OnMyLocationChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onMyLocationChange(Location arg0) {
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(arg0.getLatitude(), arg0.getLongitude())).title("It's Me!"));
}
});
}
}
}
Call this function in onCreate function.
Update:
The method mMap.setOnMyLocationChangeListener is now deprecated, you need to use the FusedLocationProviderClient now.
private FusedLocationProviderClient fusedLocationClient;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
}
To request the last known location, call the getLastLocation() method. The following code snippet illustrates the request and a simple handling of the response:
fusedLocationClient.getLastLocation()
.addOnSuccessListener(this, new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(Location location) {
// Got last known location. In some rare situations this can be null.
if (location != null) {
// Logic to handle location object
}
}
});
Reference: https://developer.android.com/training/location/retrieve-current.html

I think that better way now is:
Location currentLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(googleApiClient);

If you don't need to retrieve the user's location every time it changes (I have no idea why nearly every solution does that by using a location listener), it's just wasteful to do so. The asker was clearly interested in retrieving the location just once. Now FusedLocationApi is deprecated, so as a replacement for #Andrey's post, you can do:
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
String locationProvider = LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER;
// I suppressed the missing-permission warning because this wouldn't be executed in my
// case without location services being enabled
#SuppressLint("MissingPermission") android.location.Location lastKnownLocation = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(locationProvider);
double userLat = lastKnownLocation.getLatitude();
double userLong = lastKnownLocation.getLongitude();
This just puts together some scattered information in the docs, this being the most important source.

This Code in MapsActivity Class works for me :
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private GoogleMap mMap;
LocationManager locationManager;
LocationListener locationListener;
public void centreMapOnLocation(Location location, String title){
LatLng userLocation = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(),location.getLongitude());
mMap.clear();
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(userLocation).title(title));
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(userLocation,12));
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if (grantResults.length>0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,0,0,locationListener);
Location lastKnownLocation = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
centreMapOnLocation(lastKnownLocation,"Your Location");
}
}
}

}
}
}
Make sure these permission are written in Manifest file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
Add following dependencies
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:17.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:17.0.0'

Your current location might not be available immediately, after the map fragment is initialized.
After set
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
you have to wait until you see the blue dot shown on your MapView. Then
Location myLocation = googleMap.getMyLocation();
myLocation won't be null.
I think you better use the LocationClient instead, and implement your own LocationListener.onLocationChanged(Location l)
Receiving Location Updates will show you how to get current location from LocationClient

Location locaton;
private GoogleMap mMap;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
}
#Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
mMap = googleMap;
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return;
}
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
mMap.setOnMyLocationChangeListener(new GoogleMap.OnMyLocationChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onMyLocationChange(Location location) {
CameraUpdate center = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()));
CameraUpdate zoom = CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(11);
mMap.clear();
MarkerOptions mp = new MarkerOptions();
mp.position(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()));
mp.title("my position");
mMap.addMarker(mp);
mMap.moveCamera(center);
mMap.animateCamera(zoom);
}
});}}

FusedLocationApi has been Deprecated (Why Google always deprecated everything!)
location: retrieve-current
Here is the way to get it now:
private lateinit var fusedLocationClient: FusedLocationProviderClient
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
// ...
fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this)
}

public void getMyLocation() {
// create class object
gps = new GPSTracker(HomeActivity.this);
// check if GPS enabled
if (gps.canGetLocation()) {
latitude = gps.getLatitude();
longitude = gps.getLongitude();
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
try {
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName();
Log.e("Location",postalCode+" "+city+" "+address+" "+state+" "+knownName);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} else {
gps.showSettingsAlert();
}
}

All solution mentioned above using that code which are deprecated now!Here is the new solution
Add implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:15.0.1' dependency in your gradle file
Add network permission in your manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
Now use this code to get current location
FusedLocationProviderClient mFusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
mFusedLocationClient.getLastLocation().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(Location location) {
// GPS location can be null if GPS is switched off
currentLat = location.getLatitude();
currentLong = location.getLongitude();
Toast.makeText(HomeNavigationBarActivtiy.this, "lat " + location.getLatitude() + "\nlong " + location.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
})
.addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
});

From Google Sample (CurrentPlaceDetailsOnMap) for kotlin by FusedLocationProviderClient in order to setOnMyLocationChangeListener is deprecated
at first add implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:2.4.0' to dependencies
next in your fragment add these variables
private lateinit var fusedLocationProviderClient: FusedLocationProviderClient
private var lastKnownLocation: Location? = null
next in onViewCreated add this
fusedLocationProviderClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(requireContext())
in onMapReady call this method
private fun getDeviceLocation() {
/*
* Get the best and most recent location of the device, which may be null in rare
* cases when a location is not available.
*/
try {
val locationResult = fusedLocationProviderClient.lastLocation
locationResult.addOnCompleteListener(context as Activity) { task ->
if (task.isSuccessful) {
// Set the map's camera position to the current location of the device.
lastKnownLocation = task.result
if (lastKnownLocation != null) {
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(
LatLng(lastKnownLocation!!.latitude,
lastKnownLocation!!.longitude), DEFAULT_ZOOM.toFloat()))
}
} else {
logD("Current location is null. Using defaults.")
logD("Exception: ${task.exception}")
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(LatLng(35.6892, 51.3890), 15.toFloat()))
mMap.uiSettings?.isMyLocationButtonEnabled = false
}
}
} catch (e: SecurityException) {
logD("Exception: ${e.message}")
}
}
if lastKnownLocation be null you should update it with this method:
fun requestLocation(context: Context) {
val mLocationRequest = LocationRequest.create()
mLocationRequest.interval = 60000
mLocationRequest.fastestInterval = 5000
mLocationRequest.priority = LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY
val mLocationCallback: LocationCallback = object : LocationCallback() {
override fun onLocationResult(locationResult: LocationResult) {
for (location in locationResult.locations) {
if (location != null && lastKnownLocation == null) {
lastKnownLocation = location
}
}
}
}
LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(context)
.requestLocationUpdates(mLocationRequest, mLocationCallback, null)
}
if you want, you can turn on your location by this
mMap.isMyLocationEnabled = true
mMap.uiSettings.isMyLocationButtonEnabled = false

Add the permissions to the app manifest
Add one of the following permissions as a child of the element in your Android manifest. Either the coarse location permission:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.myapp" >
...
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
...
</manifest>
Or the fine location permission:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.myapp" >
...
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
...
</manifest>
The following code sample checks for permission using the Support library before enabling the My Location layer:
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
} else {
// Show rationale and request permission.
}
The following sample handles the result of the permission request by implementing the ActivityCompat.OnRequestPermissionsResultCallback from the Support library:
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
if (requestCode == MY_LOCATION_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (permissions.length == 1 &&
permissions[0] == Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION &&
grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
} else {
// Permission was denied. Display an error message.
}
}
This example provides current location update using GPS provider. Entire Android app code is as follows,
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationListener;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.util.Log;
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements LocationListener{
protected LocationManager locationManager;
protected LocationListener locationListener;
protected Context context;
TextView txtLat;
String lat;
String provider;
protected String latitude,longitude;
protected boolean gps_enabled,network_enabled;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
txtLat = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textview1);
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, this);
}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
txtLat = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textview1);
txtLat.setText("Latitude:" + location.getLatitude() + ", Longitude:" + location.getLongitude());
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
Log.d("Latitude","disable");
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
Log.d("Latitude","enable");
}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {
Log.d("Latitude","status");
}
}

Simple steps to get current location on google map:
1 - create map activity so in onMap ready method you create LocationManager and LocationListener
2 - in onMap ready also you check for android version and user permission ==> if there is a permission give location update OR ask the user for permission
3 - in the main class check for result of permission (onRequestPermissionsResult) ==> if the condition is true so give location update
4 - in (onLocationChanged) method we create LatLng variable and get the coordinates from location then from mMap we (addMarker and moveCamera) for that variable we've just created, this gives us location when the user moves so we still need to create new LatLng in onMap ready to have user's location when the App starts ==>inside condition if there is permission (lastKnownLocation).
NOTE:
1) Do Not forget to ask for permissions (Location and Internet) in Manifest
2) Do Not forget to have Map key from google APIs
3) We used (mMap.clear) to avoid repeating the marker each time we (run the app or update location)

Why not to use FusedLocationApi instead of OnMyLocationChangeListener? You need to initialize GoogleApiClient object and use LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates() method to register location change listener. It is important to note, that don't forget to remove the registered listener and disconnect GoogleApiClient.
private LocationRequest mLocationRequest;
private GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
private LocationListener mLocationListener;
private void initGoogleApiClient(Context context)
{
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(context).addApi(LocationServices.API).addConnectionCallbacks(new GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks()
{
#Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle)
{
mLocationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
mLocationRequest.setInterval(1000);
setLocationListener();
}
#Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i)
{
Log.i("LOG_TAG", "onConnectionSuspended");
}
}).build();
if (mGoogleApiClient != null)
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
private void setLocationListener()
{
mLocationListener = new LocationListener()
{
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
String lat = String.valueOf(location.getLatitude());
String lon = String.valueOf(location.getLongitude());
Log.i("LOG_TAG", "Latitude = " + lat + " Longitude = " + lon);
}
};
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, mLocationListener);
}
private void removeLocationListener()
{
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.removeLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationListener);
}

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements
ConnectionCallbacks, OnConnectionFailedListener {
...
#Override
public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(

This code I get from different answer but it did not update in real time.
I tried this code but when maps loads first time marker show current location but when my location is changed marker do not move to new location.

You just need to remove the call to removeLocationUpdates() in onLocationChanged():
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
mLastLocation = location;
if (mCurrLocationMarker != null)
{
mCurrLocationMarker.remove();
}
//Place current location marker
LatLng latLng = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
MarkerOptions markerOptions = new MarkerOptions();
markerOptions.position(latLng);
markerOptions.title("Current Position");
markerOptions.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_ORANGE));
mCurrLocationMarker = mGoogleMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
//move map camera
mGoogleMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));
mGoogleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(11));
//Remove this code:
//if (mGoogleApiClient != null)
//{
//LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.removeLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, this);
//}
}
Also add an onResume() Override and re-register for location updates if the Google API Client is not null:
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (mGoogleApiClient != null &&
ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);
}
}
The original code was designed to only get one location, and then remove location updates after the first location comes in.
Bear in mind that keeping a location listener active for long periods will cause more battery drain.
Also note that for testing purposes, you can set more aggressive values in the location request:
#Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle)
{
mLocationRequest = new LocationRequest();
mLocationRequest.setInterval(1000);
mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(1000);
mLocationRequest.setSmallestDisplacement(0.1F); //added
mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY); //changed
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);
}
}
Making the above changes, this code works for me:
public class MapLocationActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements OnMapReadyCallback,
GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks,
GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener,
LocationListener {
GoogleMap mGoogleMap;
SupportMapFragment mapFrag;

Here is a Simple method of updating marker as soon as the location changes!
As we know the onLocationChanged() methode is called when ever there is a change in location. And here we basically set the marker to the current position.
Follow the process given bellow. That works for me and I hope it will do for you as well :)
#RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.N)//This line requires if you are using 25/26 API
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
//Removing previously added markers here!
mMap.clear();
Log.d(TAG, "Firing onLocationChanged..............................................");
mCurrentLocation = location;
mLastUpdateTime = DateFormat.getTimeInstance().format(new Date());
updateUI();
}
We can simply clear previously added markers using the mMap.clear() where mMap is the GoogleMap object and is also called and assigned in onMapReady() methode. Then we can get current location and set marker in an external method which is here: updateUI();
private void updateUI() {
Log.d(TAG, "UI update initiated .............");
if (null != mCurrentLocation) {
LatLng allLatLang = new LatLng(mCurrentLocation.getLatitude(),mCurrentLocation.getLongitude());
MarkerOptions markerOptions = new MarkerOptions();
markerOptions.position(allLatLang);
markerOptions.title("USER NAME");
markerOptions.snippet("Users Basic Information");
markerOptions.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_ORANGE));
locationMarker = mMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
//You can add this lines if you want to show the realtime data change on any TextView
String lat = String.valueOf(mCurrentLocation.getLatitude());
String lng = String.valueOf(mCurrentLocation.getLongitude());
locationUpdate.setText("At Time: " + mLastUpdateTime + "\n" +
"Latitude: " + lat + "\n" +
"Longitude: " + lng + "\n" +
"Accuracy: " + mCurrentLocation.getAccuracy() + "\n" +
"Provider: " + mCurrentLocation.getProvider());
} else {
Log.d(TAG, "location is null ...............");
}
}
So, when ever the location is changing, the onLocationChanged() method is called and then we are removing the existing markers and setting it again to the new position.
Hope this will work out. Let me know if it helps.
Thank you.!

Implement OnCameraMoveListener and set new position for existing marker in onCameraMove
#Override
public void onCameraMove() {
mMarker.setPosition(mMap.getCameraPosition().target);
}

Inside your onLocationChanged try like this
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(currentLocationLatLng, 18));
if(myMarker == null) {
myMarker = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(currentLocationLatLng)
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_GREEN)));
} else {
myMarker.setPosition(currentLocationLatLng);
}
This is the better way to move existing marker then clear and create it again.

call it in on map ready
public void getLocation(){
new FusedLocationProviderClient(this).getLastLocation()
.addOnCompleteListener(task -> {
Location location = task.getResult();
if(location!=null&&mMap!=null){
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(
new LatLng(location.getLatitude(),location.getLongitude()),15
));
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
new Handler().postDelayed(this::getLocation,5000);
}
});
}
