What's New in ArcGIS Field Maps

26.2.1

June 29, 2026

- Various bug fixes and improvements.

User reviews

Please update

When using field maps my little blue current location marker is turned off until I press the little arrow in the top right corner. Moving my map around also automatically turns this feature off, causing me to re-apply it every time I click somewhere on the map. It would be a lot easier if this toggle was just turned on permanently and never turned off. Just like when using Apple Maps or Google maps.

Then your app would be perfect :)

It works when it wants to

This app is great for collecting data when we are in the field and to review later. The app itself crashes often and doesn’t load or submit information. Tried back in the office on WiFi and still had loading issues. Logging in right now has been a pain because it keeps cycling instead of connecting. Hopefully it is fixed or improved soon.

Constantly crashing

This app needs help

Esri continues to be terrible

Bare minimum functionality, constant logouts, arbitrary updates that ruin old workflows, snapping sets the snapped point’s z score to zero, the problems are infinite and the solutions come never

Tons of potential

Has potential to make your data work for you in amazing ways if you have the technical background to set it up correctly.
My biggest gripe is that it really needs an update that allows your location icon to show you which way you are pointing. This is a very basic navigation feature that many apps include and esri is really slacking not including this yet.
Would also like the compass feature to be more readily accessible. I’m am trying to get my agency folks to adopt FieldMaps more broadly and it still doesn’t have features that a handheld Garmin GPS has. You really gotta show people which way they are pointing and a direct route to their chosen location to traverse wooded landscapes.
