I know this question may seem basic , but I literally have no idea how to actually create a snapshot and I didn't find any documentation in Google play services on how to do it. Please excuse & tell me if I unacknowledged or missed something
You have probably already seen this: https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/savedgames it doesn't give a complete picture, but this sample code by Google should help you: https://github.com/gguuss/android-basic-samples/tree/master/BasicSamples/CollectAllTheStars2
It goes through a complete game, that saves and retrieves snapshots using Google Play Games Services.

I want to synchronise a user's notes in his Google Drive. I read this article, but it doesn't work for me, I want to control the data synchronisation myself and run it whenever I want.

It should look something like this:
Can you please tell me how I can implement this? I can't fully understand the Google Drive API V3
I am trying to make an app which tracks the path of the user. I wish to use the google maps API for this. I know there is a specific "tracking API" but that is deprecated now. I used the tutorial at http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/beginners-guide-location-android but that only shows me my location. It doesn't show how to track.
I tried to use the google developers support documents, but its simply too confusing. I am a beginner, so if someone could just guide me I'd appreciate it. Kindly assume I know JUST the basics.
I have an android app, i want to check for version code of it from Google play. please suggest some way to do this. Don't answer with MarketServiceApi and its link unless you have explored it by yourself. i have already done research on it and got nothing, but if it is working for you then suggest the procedure to use it.
At the risk of this question being marked 'research' or 'too broad', I am placing this question here with the research I have done so far (to count as background work), especially since I have been researching this for a while but have not found a good turnkey solution. thank you for your inputs!
I want to make Turn Based Multiplayer Game. I found Google Play Game Services but that only works with Google+ Login: https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/turnbasedMultiplayer
How do I do the same with Facebook login? Can Google Play Game Services be used with Facebook friends?
In my research, the other option I found is nextpeer.com, but not sure if they can do a turn by turn based. I think i have to send player to player messages directly to achieve the turn based player, dont want to do that.
EDIT: After I posted the question, i found Android Games Tutorial with Facebook SDK - trying to understand if turn based game can be done using Facebook SDK.
Can it?
Disclaimer: I am a Nextpeer employee.
Hi,
Nextpeer does not offer a turn based solution at the moment. However, we do have an asynchronous gaming mode in our Facebook matches mode. In this mode players can either play synchronously together or asynchronously. In the second case, a player can play and the recording of his gameplay will be played to his opponents when they choose to play. Does this answer your need?
I'll be glad to discuss further privately, just email us at support#nextpeer.com and ask to talk to Dror.
I have been looking for a solution on similar lines aswell, and I guess we have a solution that can be helpful for others as well. Just looking forward to integrate it. You can find the required documentation here
I have spent some hours searching for Android phone integrations with Google Drive through code. But I am not able to figure it out. I want to make a app in which when I press a button, my specific file is uploaded and stored in Google Drive.
Currently, GoogleDrive is not integrated with Android. However, this is something they are working on and say it will be here "soon". The services theyre working on is called Google Play Services.
You can also currently use the java client library to accomplish what you need for now.
Just a warning, there aren't many great examples out there so its somewhat difficult to figure out.
