A geocoder is a service that converts addresses or names of places into coordinates (and vice versa).

For example, if you search for "Central Park", the geocoder shows suggestions for what you might be interested in.

Studio Mobile cannot support multiple geocoders. You can create a composite geocoder, which combines geocoding from many sources into a single locator.

•Title: Identifies the geocoder.

•Geocoder Service URL: Type the URL of the geocoder service you want your app to use for functions like search and address lookup. The default is the Esri geocoder.

•Country Codes: Only produces results from the specified countries. If no country codes are provided, results from all countries are shown.

•Categories: Filters out unwanted geocoder results. Specifying which categories you want to include (for example, landmarks, parks, land features), limits the types of places for which the service searches. This eliminates false positive matches and potentially speeds up the search process.
