What's New in maps.earth

1.18

October 27, 2026

3D buildings got a glow-up: rounder shapes, better lighting and color. Tall stuff like the Space Needle should look a lot less like a pile of boxes. We're always expanding Transit coverage (hello London). I know it's a small concession, but now when you ask for directions in an area we don't yet cover, we'll at least give you a little nicer error text. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i tried and it doesn’t work

unusable

Giving it a Try

I’m giving it a try. Right out of the gate, one very positive feature—currently lacking in every other open source, community driven navigation app—is the ability to choose from multiple routes.

Need to see how it works with Car Play.

Locks up

You do a search for a place you want to go and it just locks up on the search results making it totally unusable

Response from developer

Sorry about that! There was a mysterious hang that only manifested on some device form factors. This has been fixed since 1.12. Thanks for reporting the issue and giving maps.earth a try!
