Android Places API: Google Play Services Out of Date on Emulator

Question

I am attempting to utilize the Google Places API\'s PlacePicker in my Android app. However, whenever I attempt to create the picker, I receive the following error message:

Answer 1

my logcat is

Google Play services out of date. Requires 12210000 but found 11947270

so I changed the code of build.gradle

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:12.0.0'

to

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:11.0.0'

and it works
