Avoid specific point in android map

Question

I have an issue with android Google Maps. I want find route between two locations but avoid specific points which given in input.

Can you help me with this ?

Answer 1

There is no specific feature of this kind yet. According to this SO thread, this is a feature request for the Maps API.

However,I can suggest possible alternatives like Using Waypoints in Routes.

Note: sample was done in Javascript

In this fiddle demo, you have 3 markers A, B & C. A = origin, B = route, C = destination.

var directionsService = new google.maps.DirectionsService;

Let's say the initial point of B is blocked, drag it to other streets/points in the map (zoom-in to see other routes) and you have your alternative route. You can read more of waypoints in the DirectionService guide.
