Question

I am confused with 1 thing related with maps that:

There are 2 ways we can use to show address on map:

• 1) Using native/built in map application and use the following code to show address on map with marker on it:

   Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW , 
          Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q= (" + MyAddress+ ")"));
  startActivity(intent);
  

Here It automatically convert the latitude and longitude and open the native maps application and show that address on map.

• 2) Here we have to use map view in our own application and show map.
  But here I am confused with that Is there any way that we can show multiple address on map using (1) method??

Because here I am passing only 1 address i.e. MyAddress but what will be the way to pass multiple address?
Is this possible or not?

As far as I Know, in Android currently not supported multiple address markup in native Google Map application via Intent. You can show only one address using Intent in native Google Map application. For multiple addresses on map you have to build your own android map application.
