But I am sure you can build a location aware app by completing this three steps:-
- First complete Build a weather app course.
- Second complete Google Play Services course.
- And then read the The Beginner’s Guide to Location in Android blog.
You don't need to take Google Play Services course. But recommended because if you want to make your app location aware you have to integrate your apps with Google play services. And if you know how to integrate with Google play services then it will be really helpful to you
So, after completing this three steps you can build a location aware weather app.
