Important change: Google MAP keys

Hello,

We’re going to push next week a change that will impact apps that use geocoding and geographic autocomplete in the search box. We’re going to proxy requests through Bubble servers, which can make requests a bit slower (by a few hundred milliseconds).

You can avoid this by using your own keys in the Settings Tab. That way, requests will directly go to Google and will be faster. Using your own keys will also provide you with more visibility in usage, response times from Google, etc.

You can add the keys in the Settings Tab (see below).

We’ll make the switch later next week. Again, that will not impact apps visibly, but for better performance using your own keys is very recommended.

Hello,

This is now live. If you see some performance differences please use your own keys. It is recommended to do for more control and no rate limiting.
