I am developing an taxi application in android. I need to store retrieve and update location of my cabs and show it on maps using geofire. I have used firebase for authentication.

Need a complete tutorial for android geofire but can't find any

I have also seen SFVehicle example but didn't understand much

Any help would be appreciated!!!

first of all currently there are no complete tutorials on geofire so all you have in your disposal is the official documentation of Geofire go for java and js.And here is a small but maybe helpful stuff-- https://firebase.googleblog.com/2013/09/geofire-location-queries-for-fun-and.html, https://medium.com/google-cloud/firebase-is-cool-geofire-is-just-awesome-b7f2be5e0f0f#.x78gjws28, I hope that these could be of some help to you.

I have created a library for Android, which provides geo-based firestore data to find the list of data within a given radius in KM / MILES.

It also gives the faster response in a single query read with the classification of the ADDED and REMOVED data in and from the query with real-time updates.

You can refer Geo-Firestore

It has well-documentation so you can easily develop the same.

Here is an example code for having a current location of driver

    // Mapbox access token is configured here. This needs to be called either in your application
    // object or in the same activity which contains the mapview.

        //fetchData process = new fetchData();
        // process.execute();
        mapView.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        mapView.getMapAsync(new OnMapReadyCallback() {
            @Override
