    location-aware apps that respond contextually to the local businesses and other places near

    the device. Use the built-in place picker UI widget and API methods to find the device’s

    current place, autocomplete users’ queries, and more.

    {@code SettingsApi}</a>

    class, you can bring up a Location Settings dialog which displays a one-touch control for users

    to change their settings without leaving your app.

  </li>

  <li><strong>Fit</strong> - The Google Fit API is now more efficient with modular calls to specific

    functionality within the API. You can now also access distance and granular sleep data.

    both software and hardware characteristics of a device to determine whether it matches a

    known-good configuration that has been previously determined to be compatible. You can use the
