Will the upcoming Google Maps changes affect ACF and the Google Map field in any way?
Yes, that’s an interesting question, this is a big change, will ACF work on another type of map to have an alternative field ?
Interesting in also…
Any news?
ACF Google maps field just lets you hook up a field to your Google API account. Now that it’s a paid service, you’ll need to add a payment account to your Google API account. It’s really not much to do with ACF, and not something they can “solve”.
Alternatively, use this field plugin to use OSM, a free alternative:

I am currently swapping all my sites over to use OSM as I can’t justify the Google costs.
Hey, thanks for the link Peter, I’ll take a look !
