Always getting None values when using Python Geocoder

Question

Im using Python's geocoder lib , and Im trying to find city names based on lat and lng. The problem is that I always get None values, any ideas why?

import geocoder

lat = 44.0207472303
lng = 20.9033038427
print(lat, lng)

city_name = geocoder.google([lat, lng], method = 'reverse')
city_name = str(city_name.city)

print(city_name) #None

Geocoder documentation says that It does not requires api key. Also I have saw some codes on this website that work without api — taga

In order for you to use Google's geocoding API with gecoder, you need to have the Google API keys set in the environment variables. See here.

To get the Geocoding API keys, you must first activate the API in the Google Cloud Platform Console and obtain the proper authentication credentials. You can get API credentials here,

https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/#get-started

After getting the API key, you need to add the following code in order to use it.

import os

os.environ["GOOGLE_API_KEY"] = "API_KEY"
