## What it is
A customizable React Native component that provides Google Places autocomplete search inputs for iOS and Android apps. It wraps the Google Places API with features like current-location search and reverse geocoding.

## Use cases
- add a place search input to a react native app
- autocomplete addresses as the user types on mobile
- let users pick their current location in a form
- reverse geocode the user's location to an address
- search for cities or businesses via google places in react native

## When to choose
- you are building a React Native app and need Google Places autocomplete out of the box
- you want a prebuilt, customizable search input with details fetching and current-location support

## When to avoid
- you are not using React Native
- you cannot enable billing or do not have a Google Places API key
- you need autocomplete for a non-Google place data source
