Description

My app is compiled with the latest versions of the Play services libraries, and makes use of the Place Picker and Place Autocomplete.

I have a user who reports that the Place Picker doesn't work as expected with microg. It's difficult to provide much detail, as I don't have microg myself, but is this a known issue? If I revert to an earlier version of Play services in my app then Place Picker apparently works fine (9.6.1 I think is OK).

Start with the Place Picker and Place Autocomplete entry points linked in the issue, using the latest Play services libraries with microG. Compare the behavior with the reported working version, 9.6.1, and gather a reproducible failure. Done means the Place Picker behavior is understood and corrected or the incompatibility is documented with clear reproduction details.
