Maps Update Rollout, March 2026, Staged

[pavel.samokha]

Offline Maps update is done. Now the whole world maps have been updated to the latest version.

There are known issues, they are listed in the starter post.

If you don’t see updates for your maps you may need to check your mobile app to have the latest version or wait for it.

Also keep in mind that you don’t have to update all your maps. We know that update can be slow, so updating just the map you need know can be a good strategy. Also don’t forget to put your watch on charger, and give it a night to download the update.

Thanks

@pavel.samokha can we collect the Symbols at the new Maps? Whats the i Icon stand for? So many Trash icons and lots of parking space Medicals, Hospital, food… Bus… Great

[OutdoorMan]

@GiPFELKiND from Joaquin’s video. Should be straightforward.

@OutdoorMan the icons will improve with next update, for simplicity it was decided to use unicode symbols as they were already on (most) watches for this first version of this feature.

@mich-heller I have to find latest apk, now I see map update

[Horizontal_2]

I can’t update any maps. I live in The Netherlands and have The Vertical 2. The app doesn’t seem to be upgraded, but I’m not on beta.

Is it known when the roll out for the app will start and/or be final?

[isazi]

@Horizontal_2 then wait, I also have no updates yet, once the new Android App is released we’ll both receive the updates.

[mich heller]

@isazi yes, please, icons update will be much appreciated some of them are not quite visible on dark maps - like parking lot and shopping mall/store for example

Also… what is this blue icon in front of a bus? It looks like a bed?

[Horizontal_2]

@isazi I’ll be waiting patiently

[OutdoorMan]

@isazi those look good enough, but good to know, thanks!

Dangerous drivers? Or this?

[mich heller]

@Fenr1r neither I live nearby, and this is a bus stop for a regular, public city transportation. that’s why i’m asking 'cause it looks weird

[freeheeler]

@mich-heller
must be a shelter then

[GiPFELKiND]

@freeheeler we dont have shelters in Germany at the bus Station looks like a Icon like a hostel / bed & breakfast Something Else. But NOT at the bus Station

[freeheeler]

@GiPFELKiND
the icon in my neighbourhood locates this

[Fenr1r]

@freeheeler Plausible. Soft pillows?

[mich heller]

@freeheeler that makes sense
this is the area from where my “bed icons” are. certainly no shelters here

[isazi]

@mich-heller check on OpenStreetMap what is there, if there isn’t a shelter edit it.

[Fenr1r]

@mich-heller How about this one?
