I'm working in Android with the Google Maps API, and having the user set a "Home" location in my app. What I would like is when they click the search box, to automagically suggest the "work" and/or "home" location that they've saved in their Google Maps application.

I realize this question was asked here but it was never really answered, and it was a year and a half ago, so I'm hoping perhaps this data is more accessible.

To be clear, I'm looking for some location services API call built in, or even a Google+ endpoint where I could GET this information. Or even if that is simply not possible at this time, that'd be nice to know.

No, that's not possible via an API call.

Workarounds if you need an address are already mentioned here: How to get the user Home/Work location for a user in Android
