Description
Issue:
In the USA (and/or in English dominating speaking countries), we assume most users entering an address into an application that uses Google Maps Address Validation component do not have their keyboard default settings to type in diacritics and/or would normally not type in the diacritic version of an address. For example, for Microsoft users, in the USA the default Language setting is set to English (United States).
Suggestion: Since some applications may only respond to non-diacritic alphabet characters, or won't parse addresses with diacritics, could Google add non-diacritic equivalent suggestions to their Address Validation suggester component to allow a user to select that address to be used by the application?
Example of issue we are dealing with (See attachment).
Please let us know if this is something that can be considered. If you have any other suggestions that would allow us to continue to use the Google Address Validation component.
Thank you,
HSF Affiliates A Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary
