I find a code that allows to get city information. How can I implement this with a simple map https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-simple? I would only see this map on my app. the function is the same that is write on the code.

city= results[0].address_components[i];

alert(city.short_name + " " + city.long_name)

Use the code in this link https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-geolocation.
Then you can copy your function codeLatLng on the new code and invoke it.
