Answer 1

I had the same expection and it was solved by adding the -ObjC to other linker flags in build settings

Answer 2

Did you add the -ObjC flag in step 7 of the instructions?

Answer 3

You may want to look into this question: objectForKeyedSubscript: crash on iOS 5.1

By the way, what's the version of Xcode you are using? What's the iOS SDK version you are using?

Developing an application with the Google Maps SDK for iOS requires the following:

• Xcode 4.5 or later.
• iOS SDK 6.0 or later.

Applications that use the Google Maps SDK for iOS will work on iOS 5.1 and above.

Answer 4

Other people have mentioned the following section from Google's Documentation

Choose your project, rather than a specific target, and open the Build Settings tab. In the Other Linker Flags section, add -ObjC. If these settings are not visible, change the filter in the Build Settings bar from Basic to All.

However, it wasn't until I added the -ObjC flag into my projects 'Other Linker Flags' section, and NOT the targets 'Other Linker Flags' section, was I able to resolve the unrecognized selector error.
