The question of how to do gradient polylines has been asked a number of times, however, I want to know if this comes built in for Android. In the following post, this question is poised and someone answered that as of May 2015, there was still no gradient polylines for Android:

I have combed through all the documentation I can find and do not see anything about a gradient polyline function. Am I missing it? Because iOS has had this capability for three years now.

I can't imagine that Google is prioritizing iOS over Android. Or are they? Here is the documentation I have checked:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/polygon-tutorial
https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/model/PolylineOptions
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/groundoverlay
If someone can point me in the right direction that would be helpful. Or at least confirm that Android has been ignored in respect to gradient polylines.
