Android GPS Geocoding API limit

Google maps and geocoding functions have a request limit.

I am trying to use geodecoing in one of the application in Android and as per the below URL : https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/#Limits

Google geocoding limit is 25000 maps load per day

So is this limit per user or per device or per API key?

I have not used the service, but the page you linked to says: "Including a key in your request: Enables per-key instead of per-IP-address quota limits." So the limit probably depends on how you are accessing the API. If you are looking for a Geocoding API without request limits, check out SmartyStreets. - SunSparc

There is no limitations for the use of geocoding in an Android app, if obviously you are using the Google Location API.

As written by Google:

The Google Earth API, and native Maps APIs for mobile platforms such as Android and iOS are not affected. Use of the embed feature of Google Maps, and other Google products that offer an embed feature that includes a map, are not affected by these limits.
