Marker click events

Don't snap to marker after click in android map v2

Quoting from the above post

You can use an OnMarkerClickListener to listen for click events on the marker. To set this listener on the map, call GoogleMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(OnMarkerClickListener). When a user clicks on a marker, onMarkerClick(Marker) will be called and the marker will be passed through as an argument. This method returns a boolean that indicates whether you have consumed the event (i.e., you want to suppress the default behavior). If it returns false, then the default behavior will occur in addition to your custom behavior. The default behavior for a marker click event is to show its info window (if available) and move the camera such that the marker is centered on the map.

Use OnMarkerClickListener on your marker.

Example: Works on my phone

    Marker source, destination;
    GoogleMap mMap;

    mMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
    source = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
            .position(sc)
            .title("MyHome")
            .snippet("Bangalore")
            .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.pin)));

    destination = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
            .position(lng)
            .title("MapleBear Head Office")
            .snippet("Jayanager")
            .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.pin)));

    mMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(marker -> {
        if (marker.getTitle().equals("MyHome")) // if marker source is clicked
            Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, marker.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();// display toast
        return true;
    });
