Hi i'm trying to implement an autocomplete location finder in android, using google maps api, that looks and behaves like autocomplete location finder in the latest Calendar app .
Does anyone know how it's done? Can you point me out some examples/source code that can help me?
I have the autocomplete, using the maps api working. I'm looking for help on how to make the autocomplete text field slide up/pop up when entering text.
Thanks
EDIT:
A link to a small video showing the effect i want to replicate:

I'm trying to replicate the animation (that happens after typing two chars) where the Textbox goes up and the white background covers all the other components.
I already have the fetch of the places working.

I am trying to implement an EditText which takes a url from user and loads the desired url in the webview. I have accomplished this task. Now I want to provide corresponding suggestions of urls on typing a word in the EditText same like as Google provides. I have a sample application from google play store which has implemented this scenario.
URL to the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=video.downloader.videodownloader&hl=en
I have searched every where to find a clue to start my work. But I couldn't find anything supportive.
Screen Shots for figuring out the Scenario:

I am not using any database to fetch data from and to show in suggestion. I want to use EditText like an address bar of Google browser. When a user tap and type any word, it gives suggested urls respectively as showing in the screen shots.
I would use a search interface (documentation here: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/search/) with a Content Provider. You should fill the content provider by using custom search JSON API https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/overview. It's a quite complicated task but I think you should start with this stack
I have just begun using Flutter to create a mobile app.
The first thing I need the app to do is to take an Address/location as input from the user.
I would like to use a text input field that once you start typing it suggests locations based on the google place API.
Sadly there is no widget to enable this out of the box, but it shouldn't be so hard to do. Google's places API returns results based on any text input, so you can just keep sending keystrokes until the user sees (and selects) their desired location. I've got the API working already.
Now I'm struggling with how to build the front end experience.
I was hoping to have a drop-down text field, but I'm not finding anything similar in the widget library.
My next best idea was an input field with a DropdownButton class next to it. I want to make the DropdownButton invisible (0 width) but programmatically make it drop down once the user begins typing.
Sadly I don't see any way to control the visibility of the Dropdown List, so I'm not sure this will work.
Does anyone have any better ideas?
Image of what I have so far but obviously this is not optimal:
It's probably late for an answer but I'll still post this in case anyone else is still curious about this.
If you have the API wired up then what might prove useful is this third-party package.
It's called Flutter Typeahead.
It's a generic input with dropdowns and the data can come from any API and not just the Google Places API.

I saw many posts about making the autocomplete to the current autocomplete text view
but I need to make the autocomplete to another application
for example , I want to use my program/service to write inside skype or facebook or browser
how can I implement that
please explain to me with very basic
I need to give a search box in my android app. As the user starts typing in the search text, I need to show him relevant suggestions. (As we see in the google-search widget on the home screen. If we see from the logs, com.android.quicksearchbox/.SearchActivity is started with android.search.action.GLOBAL_SEARCH intent and it searches in following: corpora:[web, apps, com.android.contacts/.activities.PeopleActivity]).
Only thing is I need the suggestions to be displayed from the web & my application DB.
Any idea how to implement this ? Do I need to implement my own SuggestionsProvider or can I directly use the native implementation? If so, how?
I think i figure it out myself.
Went through Searchable Dictionary code & QuickSearchBox code in android source.
Need two start 2 activities in a background thread. One will search for the search-term in my DB & other will search the same in Google. All the results will be seen in the suggestion list.
Google Suggest API provides suggestions as the user enters the text.
