Android Tutorial => Get Address From Location using Geocoder

Example

After you got the Location object from FusedAPI, you can easily acquire Address information from that object.

private Address getCountryInfo(Location location) {
    Address address = null;
    Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(getActivity(), Locale.getDefault());
    String errorMessage;
    List<Address> addresses = null;
    try {
        addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(
                location.getLatitude(),
                location.getLongitude(),
                // In this sample, get just a single address.
                1);
    } catch (IOException ioException) {
        // Catch network or other I/O problems.
        errorMessage = "IOException>>" + ioException.getMessage();
    } catch (IllegalArgumentException illegalArgumentException) {
        // Catch invalid latitude or longitude values.
        errorMessage = "IllegalArgumentException>>" + illegalArgumentException.getMessage();
    }
    if (addresses != null && !addresses.isEmpty()) {
        address = addresses.get(0);
    }
    return country;
}
