> **Note:** The major version of this plugin follows the major version of Capacitor. Use the version that matches your Capacitor installation (e.g., plugin v8 for Capacitor 8). Only the latest major version is actively maintained.

## Install

You can use our AI-Assisted Setup to install the plugin. Add the Capgo skills to your AI tool using the following command:

```bash
npx skills add https://github.com/cap-go/capacitor-skills --skill capacitor-plugins
```

Then use the following prompt:

```text
Use the `capacitor-plugins` skill from `cap-go/capacitor-skills` to install the `@capgo/capacitor-nativegeocoder` plugin in my project.
```

If you prefer Manual Setup, install the plugin by running the following commands and follow the platform-specific instructions below:

```bash
npm install @capgo/capacitor-nativegeocoder
npx cap sync
```

then import this into your code:

```javascript
import { NativeGeocoder } from '@capgo/capacitor-nativegeocoder';
```

## iOS

Apple requires privacy descriptions to be specified in `Info.plist` for location information:

- `NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription` (`Privacy - Location Always Usage Description`)
- `NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription` (`Privacy - Location When In Use Usage Description`)

Read about [Configuring `Info.plist`](https://capacitorjs.com/docs/ios/configuration#configuring-infoplist) in the [iOS Guide](https://capacitorjs.com/docs/ios) for more information on setting iOS permissions in Xcode
The IOS implementation require internet

## Android

This API requires the following permissions be added to your `AndroidManifest.xml`:

```xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps" />
```

## Web

This API requires a Google API key to be set in the `apiKey` field of the `ForwardOptions` or `ReverseOptions` interfaces.

There is no way to use this plugin on the web without a Google API key.

The return data is limited to the data available from the native API on the device, as example `formatted_address` is not available in web implementation, as it's not available in the native API.

## API

* [`forwardGeocode(...)`](#forwardgeocode)
* [`getPluginVersion()`](#getpluginversion)
* [Interfaces](#interfaces)
