Hi Rodrigo, I’ll jump into this too. Could you post your `unoproj` file. Usually the reason for the gms stuff not being set is Uno not seeing the api key in your `unoproj`

Cool, I see the problem, the way you have added the api-key is incorrect. Have a peek at documentation here: [https://www.fusetools.com/docs/fuse/controls/mapview](https://www.fusetools.com/docs/fuse/controls/mapview)

Here is the important section:

```auto
Google Maps requires a valid Google Maps API key. Follow Google's 
documentation to get one set up. Once you have your key it must be 
added to your project file, as shown below

 "Android": {
   "Geo": {
        "ApiKey": "your_key_here"
    }
}

```

In your `unoproj` you have:

```auto
  "Android": {
    "Geo": {
      "com.google.android.geo.API_KEY": "AIzaSyB6SayIseHqfozDaLGyTd1FCqOEi2ZKMjo"
    },
    "PreviewPackage": "com.Zeo.Pettz.preview",
    "Package": "com.Zeo.Pettz"
  }

```

So try changing `com.google.android.geo.API_KEY` to `ApiKey`

I hope this helps!
