          yes, but this topic has already been discussed many many times.
          and you don't get me, when u say there are no tutorials out there .... even in this forum.
          If you have a specific question .... sure no problem.

            Hi
            This is old but might still be valid
            https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8515598/how-to-add-google-maps-in-my-application-in-qt
            also
            https://github.com/tranter/qt-google-maps/

            I dont think there is an actual step by step tut as such but im pretty sure you re not the first to want it :)

              actually there are at least 3 Qt-Examples using QML-Map-item to display/show/interact with a map.
              It does use QtLocation do it, haven't tried it myself however, so no idea if the backend is googlemaps or some other open street map source.

              Example code link


              Be aware of the Qt Code of Conduct, when posting : https://forum.qt.io/topic/113070/qt-code-of-conduct


              Q: What's that?
              A: It's blue light.
              Q: What does it do?
              A: It turns blue.
