v11.26.0-alpha.1

Features ✨ and improvements 🏁

• [compose] Introduce experimental IndoorSelector composable function available inside MapboxMap, displaying a scrollable floor-selection widget that appears automatically when an indoor building is in view. Exposes IndoorSelectorState for programmatic access to the current floor list and selected floor, and an onFloorClicked callback for reacting to user selections.
• [compose] Add IndoorSelectorControl headless composable inside MapIndoorSelectorScope: attaches the indoor plugin to an IndoorSelectorState without rendering any UI, enabling custom floor-selector implementations.
• [compose] Add rotateBy, moveBy, pitchBy, and scaleBy methods to MapViewportState for incremental camera animations.
• [compose] Add rememberStyleImage(imageId, image9Patch: NinePatchImage) and remember9PatchStyleImage(imageId, bitmap: Bitmap) overloads for nine-patch images.
• Introduce new experimental ViewAnnotationOptions.enableSymbolLayerCollision option which allows view annotations to hide underlying map symbols to avoid visual clutter.
  By default, the full bounding box of the view annotation is used for collision detection. If your annotation has a non-rectangular shape, it is highly recommended to mark the specific subviews that should participate via the new experimental View.mbxCollisionBox flag.
• Support drawing view annotation collision boxes when MapView.debugOptions is set to COLLISION.
• Internal fixes and performance improvements.

Dependencies

• Update gl-native to v11.26.0-alpha.1, common to v24.26.0-alpha.1.

v11.25.0

Breaking changes ⚠️

• MapView.setMaximumFps and MapSurface.setMaximumFps are now annotated @MainThread. Callers must invoke them from the main thread; off-main callers will see a lint warning.

Features ✨ and improvements 🏁

• [compose] Add Standard IndoorLabels featureset and indoor configuration options (showIndoor, showIndoorLabels, colorIndoorLabelHighlight, colorIndoorLabelSelect) for the Mapbox Standard style.
• Add useNativeFlingDeceleration option to GesturesPlugin that uses OverScroller for physics-based fling deceleration instead of the legacy easeTo animation, providing a more natural fling experience.
• Throttle MapboxMap post destroyed warning logs.
• Expose verticalFov in CameraOptions, allowing a custom vertical field of view to be set in setCamera, easeTo, and flyTo.
• Allow using color string literals in interpolate expressions, including when set on style config at runtime.
• Support using line-progress in line-emissive-strength.
• Add support for zoom-and-feature-dependent appearance conditions.
• Add client-side SD/HD road and traffic conflation, hiding redundant roads based on functional road class coverage with stencil-masked transitions and configurable opacity fade.
• Add animated cross-fade transitions for boolean style config options (e.g. switching HD roads on/off).
• Add an option to disallow expensive network requests in loadStylePack.

Bug fixes 🐞

• Fix a ConcurrentModificationException crash that could occur when a plugin was added or removed during MapView.onDestroy.
• Fix frame pacing breaking when the panel switches refresh-rate modes mid-session (VRR or per-UID frameRateOverride). FpsManager now updates its screenRefreshRate via a DisplayManager.DisplayListener instead of only sampling once at onStart.
• [maps-sdk] Fix Vulkan rendering being permanently disabled when the Android surface arrived before the native map was set. The renderer now defers setup and retries via onMapSet() once the map is available.
• Fix a crash that could occur while iterating map interactions when a callback modifies interaction state.
• Fix a use-after-free crash in the map caused by asynchronous tasks accessing a partially destroyed map instance.
• Fix a crash caused by dereferencing a null index buffer when drawing symbols.
• Fix a crash when an overriding terrain source was merged with another source from the same root style.
• Fix missing letters in the middle of text labels placed along lines elevated by terrain.
• Fix aliasing artifacts on lines with borders.
• Fix step expression evaluation when using uniform buffer objects.
• Improve symbol appearances performance for Vulkan backend.
• Fix rare process crashes during HTTP downloads (failure to create a temporary file, and an uncaught error while writing the response).
• Fix a crash sometimes occurring when using a custom raster source.
• Internal fixes and performance improvements.

v11.24.1

11.24.1 May 19, 2026

Features ✨ and improvements 🏁

• Expose FeaturesetFeature.originalFeature property.
• Add Vulkan rendering backend support (Public Preview). The Vulkan backend is published as a separate artifact (android-core-vulkan / android-core-vulkan-ndk27) that replaces the default OpenGL-based android-core. To use it, replace the default core dependency with the Vulkan variant. In your build.gradle.kts add:

  configurations.all {
      resolutionStrategy.dependencySubstitution {
          all {
              val requested = requested as? ModuleComponentSelector
              if (requested?.group == "com.mapbox.maps" &&
                  (requested.module == "android-core" || requested.module == "android-core-ndk27")
              ) {
                  val vulkanModule = requested.module.replace("android-core", "android-core-vulkan")
                  useTarget("com.mapbox.maps:$vulkanModule:${requested.version}")
              }
          }
      }
  }

  Known limitations:
  • Android 12 (API 31) or later is recommended. Earlier Android versions may exhibit GPU driver bugs, particularly on devices with Adreno GPUs.
  • Only arm64-v8a is supported.
  • No automatic fallback to OpenGL.
  • MapWidget (Android Auto) is not yet supported.
  • Custom layer API is not yet supported.
  • MapView.snapshot() is not yet supported.
  • Rain precipitation effect is not rendered (snow works).
• Add support for rendering landmark models with level-of-detail (LOD), improving performance and memory use for distant 3D landmarks.
• Improve additive blend mode rendering on line layers with high data density, and add the line-blend-additive-clamp style property for opting out of dynamic density mapping with a fixed value.
• Set a default ambient cache quota of 1 GB and over-evict when the quota is exceeded to reduce eviction churn.
• TileStore.create(path) is no longer supported (deprecated since v11.19). Only one TileStore instance per process is now supported.

Bug fixes 🐞

• Fix a crash that could occur when the map is destroyed while asynchronous operations are still in progress.
• Fix the NetworkRestriction.DISALLOW_EXPENSIVE network option not being respected, which could cause map requests to proceed over metered connections when configured otherwise.
• Fix isMetricUnits/distanceUnits sync in ScaleBar settings DSL generated by KSP codegen.
• Fix style import config property updates being lost when applied while a concurrent import URL change was loading.
• Fix incorrect color output when applying a color LUT to premultiplied colors.
• Fix incorrect symbol elevation rendering on Mali GPUs (e.g. Google Pixel 9 Pro XL) caused by insufficient shader precision for large z-offset values.
• Fix a crash in the vector tile layer cache when a sibling tile was destroyed during cache reuse.
• Internal fixes and performance improvements.
