$> cordova plugin rm com.googlemaps.ios

###Information Cordova-iOS 4.X and WKWebView are supported from version 1.4+. There is currently no npm package of 1.4 (work in progress) but if you need this feature, you can grab our master, which is currently considered stable. (We're still fixing bugs, so you might wait until we push 1.4.0 to npm)
###Last release information
v.1.3.9 - 04/Jan/2016 Happy new year!
- Fixed a few bugs with Crosswalk, White-Screen Problems.
- Added "maxAddressLines" for Geocoder (Android, iOS had it already). Check "lines" inside of the extras array.
- Updated Google Maps SDK for iOS to 1.11.1
Please check the new Tutorial for Crosswalk
I recommend to set settings for Crosswalk to 15+ and remove android-platform (cordova platform rm android) and re-install it. No patches required anymore to run with crosswalk. It also has some nice performance boosts, as setting translucent isn't required anymore. (in my test-cases)
v.1.3.6 - 07/Dec/2015
- Fixed some small bugs
- Updated Google Maps SDK for iOS to 1.11.0
- Will fix some bugs on iOS 9
- with BITCODE support
- fixed blank map problems
Check out the release notes.
###Quick demo
<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
document.addEventListener("deviceready", function() {
var div = document.getElementById("map_canvas");
// Initialize the map view
map = plugin.google.maps.Map.getMap(div);
// Wait until the map is ready status.
map.addEventListener(plugin.google.maps.event.MAP_READY, onMapReady);
}, false);
function onMapReady() {
var button = document.getElementById("button");
button.addEventListener("click", onBtnClicked);
}
function onBtnClicked() {
// Move to the position with animation
map.animateCamera({
target: {lat: 37.422359, lng: -122.084344},
zoom: 17,
tilt: 60,

}, function(marker) {
// Show the info window
marker.showInfoWindow();
