Hi, I wonder if there is any way for me to show a popup indicating the location of the device when user click a pushPin?

This can be done fairly easily. You can add a click event to the map. In the event arguments there will be pixel coordinates. You can use the map to convert these pixel coordinats into a location object. they you can follow one of the methods below to create the infobox:
