Android google maps release key?
Before you downvote or mark this as a duplicate, please consider that all the answers for this question on SO date back to 2013/14 and this page is completely silent on the issue.
With that said, how do I get a release key for Google Maps? I used my current key with a debug.apk and a signed-release.apk, and the maps dont render on the release.apk, so I assume its a API key issue.

The same way you get a "debug" key. There is no real difference, just as there is no real difference between a debug and a release certificate in Android (except that the debug certificate gets created automatically for you and resides in your Android settings folder).
Get the SHA-1 fingerprint for your Android release key and use it along with the proper package name (debug builds usually have a ".debug" attached, so make sure to omit that) to create a new Google Maps Key in the Google Developer Console.

https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard
- You have to create key here:

- Put your key into

That's it!

@BiGGZ , you have to add your release and debug keys into console. get SHA-1 like here stackoverflow.com/a/15727931/1979882 and put resultant key into console
