    Hi

    I have been using QML Location module but I want to know what are the advantages/disadvantages (functionally) of using Qtwebengine to display maps (say google map) and also use the maps api for markers and polygons etc.

      Hi,

      The QtWebEngine module can't be used on mobile targets (iOS/Android) and it's pretty heavy weight to show a map if you already have everything your need with the QtLocation module.

          QtWebEngine is as the name suggest for web related stuff, so you'll have at disposition what the the maps provider offers for web development.
