I’m trying to get through this tutorial however I believe that the use of the Places API has drastically changed?
According to Google it seems you don’t create a Google API Client anymore?
Further, the property Places.GEO_DATA_API
doesn’t seem to exist.
Can someone point me to the correct implementation for the Places API with an updated version of this?
Hi @liltimtim - Places API has indeed changed. We’ve done a second edition of the book that is coming out in a few weeks where all of this is corrected! Stay tuned for that. If you purchased the digital edition, you get the 2nd edition included!

@ericwastaken that sounds awesome!!! thanks for the reply. And yes, I did purchase the digital version and I think it is amazing you guys give us free updates to the book. That speaks volumes of Ray Wenderlich as a company!

Hi, I have bought the paper version so I do not have access to updated version, but I think updated source code could help enough. Problem is that I see only code for the 1st edition on the page with source code. Please do you have any ETA for the 2nd edition source code?
Hi,
My sincerest apology. I assumed the 2nd Ed source was already on there. I see that it is not.
I’m escalating with the editorial team to see why that’s not up already.
Thanks,
Eric.

Dear @ericwastaken , @mandafrederick and Chris (sorry, as a new user I can mention directly only 2 persons),
Wow! I really appreciate your super prompt resolution! I posted it on Friday evening and you resolved it within few hours. I even didn’t have time to ask Manda for source code via email as she kindly offered
because Chris uploaded it immediately to the default location.
I have downloaded all I needed and with the updated source code I managed to finish the 15th chapter successfully.
Thank you all! With a such amazing support, I’m happy to purchase more your books! 
Kind regards,
Martin
