Google Maps SDK for iOS now supports Apple A7s 64 bit architecture


If youre an iOS developer who uses Google Maps in your apps, youre gonna like the latest Google Maps SDK for iOS.


Google Maps SDK for iOS version 1.6 adds full support for Apples 64-bit A7 processor. This means Googles Maps can now take full advantage of the power of Apples latest chip. Another nice new feature of the SDK is support for marker opacity, which allows developers to set the transparency of map markers that are displayed. Heres the full release notes:
  • The Google Maps SDK for iOS now supports 64-bit architectures. Both 32- and 64-bit binaries are built into the single GoogleMaps framework. The correct binary will be selected by Xcode based on your build settings. For instructions on building 64-bit applications, please refer to Apples 64-bit transition guide. (Issue 5806) 
  • Changed some instances of CGFloat to either a float or double where it was more appropriate. 
  • Added the ability to restrict min and max zoom on GMSMapView. (Issue 5882) 
  • Added opacity on GMSTileLayer and GMSMarker. 
  • Core Animation on GMSMapView now requires model values to be set

Google Maps SDK for iOS version 1.6 can be downloaded here.
