hi im unable to load maps and its only showing google logo at the bottom of the screen when i try to load it. Iv got the api key as per the procedure and mentioned it at the places where thyr supposed to be. still its showing me error. one of them is api key not activated. iv read everywhere but not got how to activate the api key since all the tutorials specify a page where u can manually activate the key, but i think google has updated from there and now that page doesnt exist anymore. if there are any other alternatives please suggest. im pasting my code below.
this is my manifest file
