Hi @Anonymous 

my app version is 2.2.240702.21179078, and the device is both in andriod mobile and tab it is not working, and yes i have installed the google environment correctly. The issue is that in the arcgis visual when we search for the location and click on use current location, it says cannot retrieve current location only in the andriod devices but it is showing in desktop and ios. could you tell if there is any restriction made in andriod devices alone
