6.0.0 - July 16, 2020

This major release does not include any breaking changes to public APIs. We are treating this release as a SEMVER major change because our installation instructions have changed.

Distribution Updates

Standard installation methods still apply – we will continue to support SDK installation via CocoaPods, Carthage, and manual integration. However, you are now required to authenticate installation with a new access token. For more information about this new process, view our installation guide.

Licensing Updates

Release v6.0.0 updates the Mapbox Maps SDK for iOS to use a pre-built GL Native binary rather than building from source as a submodule dependency. GL Native is changing some of its development workflows to build some Mapbox platform-specific features internally, similar to Chrome/Chromium development. Please refer to the README.md and/or DEVELOPING.md for guidance.

Starting today, new binary releases of GL Native are licensed under the Mapbox Terms of Service. The Mapbox Maps SDKs repos will continue to be public and licensed under BSD-2.

If you have any questions about how this change may impact your use of the Maps SDK, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Mapbox Support to connect with the Mapbox mobile team.

✨ New features

Added support for the hash expression operator that generates a hash value for the given string. Use this function in expressions in style JSON or with the MGL_FUNCTION() syntax in an NSExpression format string. (#326)
Improved the performance of the mgl_distance: expression function (distance expression operator in JSON). (#326)

🐞 Bug fixes

Fixed an issue where symbols flickered when zooming out. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16471, #273)
Fixed a potential crash when switching from a style with many layers to an empty style. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16480)
Fixed a potential memory leak when using VoiceOver. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native-ios#318)

🔧 Dependencies

Core library updated to 1.8.1.

5.9.0 - May 7, 2020

Styles and rendering

Added the mgl_distanceFrom: expression function for calculating the shortest distance between the evaluated feature and an MGLPointAnnotation, MGLPointCollection, MGLPolyline, MGLMultiPolyline, MGLPolygon, or MGLMultiPolygon that you specify as part of an NSExpression format string. (#295)
Added the MGLCircleStyleLayer.circleSortKey property. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#15875)
Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters are now set in the font specified in style JSON or by the MGLSymbolLayer.textFontNames property. If the named font is not installed on the device or bundled with the application, the characters are set in a fallback font listed in the MGLIdeographicFontFamilyName key in the Info.plist file. (#189)
The MGLIdeographicFontFamilyName key in the Info.plist file can now specify the fallback fonts for CJK characters by their PostScript names or display names in addition to font family names. For example, you can specify NotoSansCJKjp-Bold or Noto Sans CJK JP Bold, which ensures that the characters are set in bold. You can alternatively specify these font names in the MGLIdeographicFontFamilyName key of NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults. (#189)
CJK characters are now laid out according to the font, so fonts with nonsquare glyphs have the correct kerning. (#189)
Fixed an issue where the baseline for CJK characters was too low compared to non-CJK characters. (#189)
Fixed a crash when calling the -[MGLStyle removeImageForName:] method with the name of a nonexistent image. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16391)
Fixed an issue where properties such as MGLFillStyleLayer.fillColor and MGLLineStyleLayer.lineColor misinterpreted non-opaque UIColors. (#266)

Offline maps

Added the -[MGLOfflinePack setContext:completionHandler:] method for replacing the data associated with an offline pack, such as a name. (#288)
Added the MGLOfflineStorage.databasePath and MGLOfflineStorage.databaseURL properties to obtain the path of the database that contains offline packs and the ambient cache. To customize this path, set the MGLOfflineStorageDatabasePath in Info.plist. (#298)
Fixed an error that occurred if your implementation of the -[MGLOfflineStorageDelegate offlineStorage:URLForResourceOfKind:] method returned a local file URL. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16428)

Other changes

Fixed a crash when encountering an invalid polyline. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16409)
Fixed an issue where an MGLMapSnapshotOptions with an invalid MGLMapCamera.centerCoordinate, negative MGLMapCamera.heading, negative MGLMapCamera.pitch, and negative MGLMapSnapshotOptions.zoomLevel resulted in a snapshot centered on Null Island at zoom level 0 even if the style specified a different initial center coordinate or zoom level. (#280)
Certain logging statements no longer run on the main thread. (mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#16325)
Fixed an issue that prevented the Maps SDK from warning about a misconfiguration that violated the Mapbox ToS. (#288)

5.8.0 - April 7, 2020

Styles and rendering

The IN and CONTAINS predicate operators can now test whether a string is a substring of another string or whether the evaluated feature (SELF) lies within a given MGLShape or MGLFeature. (#183, #184)
Added the MGLLineStyleLayer.lineSortKey and MGLFillStyleLayer.fillSortKey properties. (#179, #16194, #16220)
The MGLSymbolStyleLayer.iconTextFit property now respects the cap insets of any nine-part stretchable image passed into the -[MGLStyle setImage:forName:] method. You can define the stretchable area in Xcode’s asset catalog or by calling the -[UIImage resizableImageWithCapInsets:] method. (#182)
Fixed an issue where an MGLSymbolStyleLayer.lineDashPattern value of {1, 0} resulted in hairline gaps. (#16202)
Improved the performance of loading a style that has many style images. (#16187)

Snapshots

Added the MGLMapSnapshotter.delegate property and MGLMapSnapshotterDelegate protocol for customizing the style before taking a snapshot. (#235)
You no longer need to explicitly capture the MGLMapSnapshotter object in the completion handler that you specify in -[MGLMapSnapshotter startWithCompletionHandler:]. Even if you declare the snapshotter locally without holding a strong reference to it, the snapshotter is only deallocated after the completion handler finishes, and the completion handler generally receives a valid snapshot. (#210)
The -[MGLMapSnapshotter cancel] method no longer calls the completion handler passed into -[MGLMapSnapshotter startWithCompletionHandler:]. (#210)
Fixed an issue where the MGLMapSnapshotter.loading property always returned NO, even while loading a snapshot. (#210)

Localization and internationalization

The MGLIdeographicFontFamilyName Info.plist key can now be set to the display names or PostScript names of individual fonts. (#189)
The -[MGLStyle localizeLabelsIntoLocale:] and -[NSExpression mgl_expressionLocalizedIntoLocale:] methods can now localize text into Traditional Chinese and Vietnamese. (#173)

Networking and storage

Downloaded offline packs no longer reduce the storage space available for ambient caching of tiles and other resources. (#15622)
Added the -[MGLOfflineStorage preloadData:forURL:modificationDate:expirationDate:eTag:mustRevalidate:completionHandler:] method for determining when the data is ready to retrieve from the cache. (#188)
Fixed issues where an offline pack would stop downloading before completion. (#16230, #16240)
When an offline pack encounters an HTTP 404 error, the MGLOfflinePackUserInfoKeyError user info key of the MGLOfflinePackErrorNotification now indicates the resource that could not be downloaded. (#16240)

Other changes

Added MGLMapView.anchorRotateOrZoomGesturesToCenterCoordinate property that anchors zoom and rotating gestures to the map's view center coordinate. (#268)
Added the MGLMapView.minimumPitch and MGLMapView.maximumPitch properties to further limit how much the user or your code can tilt the map. (#208)
Fixed a crash while quitting the application after adding an annotation to MGLMapView. (#252)
Fixed an issue where the user location annotation view’s heading indicator did not rotate if Compass Calibration was disabled in the device’s Location Services settings. (#247)
Improved performance when continuously animating a tilted map. (#16287)
Fixed a memory leak when zooming with any options enabled in the MGLMapView.debugMask property. (#15179)

Fixed an issue where MGLSymbolStyleLayer.symbolSortKey could sort text and icons incorrectly. (#16023)
Fixed a crash when parsing GeoJSON sources. (#16106)

Other changes

Added new property MGLMapView.panScrollingMode, which allows you to limit the horizontal or vertical direction a user may pan on the map view. (#108)
Added the image expression function for converting an image name into a style image. Use this function in expressions in style JSON or with the MGL_FUNCTION() syntax in an NSExpression format string. Image expressions are compatible with the mgl_attributed: expression function and MGLAttributedExpression classes for embedding icons inline in text labels. (#15877, #15937)

5.6.1 - January 9, 2020

Fixed a crash that could occur when MGLShapeSource destroys its underlying data. (#16106)

5.6.0 - December 19, 2019

If animated is NO then the annotation is selected if offscreen, but the map is not panned. Currently only point annotations are supported. Setting the MGLMapView.selectedAnnotations property now animates. (#3249)
Fixed a crash when rapidly adding and removing annotations. (#11551, #11575)
Marked protocol method -[MGLCalloutView presentCalloutFromRect:inView:constrainedToView:animated:] as unavailable. Use -[MGLCalloutView presentCalloutFromRect:inView:constrainedToRect:animated:] instead. (#11738)

Fixed an issue that could cause antialiasing between polygons on the same layer to fail if the fill layers used data-driven styling for the fill color. (#9699)
The previously deprecated support for style classes has been removed. For interface compatibility, the API methods remain, but they are now non-functional.

Annotations

Fixed several bugs and performance issues related to the use of annotations backed by MGLAnnotationImage. The limits on the number and size of images and glyphs has been effectively eliminated and should now depend on hardware constraints. These fixes also apply to images used to represent icons in MGLSymbolStyleLayer. (#9213)
Added an overlays property to MGLMapView. (#8617)
Selecting an annotation no longer sets the user tracking mode to MGLUserTrackingModeNone. (#10094)

3.6.3 - September 15, 2017

Added the option to display an always-on heading indicator with the default user location annotation, controlled via the MGLMapView.showsUserHeadingIndicator property. (#9886)
Fixed an issue where user heading tracking mode would update too frequently. (#9845)
Added support for iOS 11 location usage descriptions. (#9869)
Fixed an issue where MGLUserLocation.location did not follow its documented initialization behavior. This property will now properly return nil until the user’s location has been determined. (#9639)
MGLMapView’s minimumZoomLevel and maximumZoomLevel properties are now available in Interface Builder’s Attributes inspector. (#9729)
Deprecated +[MGLStyle trafficDayStyleURL] and +[MGLStyle trafficNightStyleURL] with no replacement method. To use the Traffic Day and Traffic Night styles going forward, we recommend that you use the underlying URL. (#9918)
Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when a map view's view controller was deallocated. (#9995)

3.6.2 - August 18, 2017

Added an MGLStyle.localizesLabels property, off by default, that localizes any Mapbox Streets–sourced symbol layer into the user’s preferred language. (#9582)
Added an additional camera method to MGLMapView that accepts an edge padding parameter. (#9651)
Fixed an issue with the scaling of the user location annotation’s horizontal accuracy indicator. (#9721)
Fixed an issue that caused -[MGLShapeSource featuresMatchingPredicate:] and -[MGLVectorSource featuresInSourceLayersWithIdentifiers:predicate:] to always return an empty array. (#9784)

3.6.1 - July 28, 2017

Reduced the size of the dynamic framework by optimizing symbol visibility. (#7604)
Fixed an issue where the attribution button would have its custom tint color reset when the map view received a tint color change notification, such as when an alert controller was presented. (#9598)
Improved the behavior of zoom gestures when the map reaches the minimum zoom limit. (#9626)
Fixed an issue where tilt gesture was triggered with two fingers aligned vertically and panning down. (#9571)

MGLMapView and MGLTilePyramidOfflineRegion now default to version 10 of the Mapbox Streets style. Similarly, several style URL class methods of MGLStyle return URLs to version 10 styles. Unversioned variations of these methods are no longer deprecated. MGLStyleDefaultVersion should no longer be used with any style other than Streets. (#6301)
Added class methods to MGLStyle that correspond to the new Traffic Day and Traffic Night styles. (#6301)
MGLSymbolStyleLayer’s iconImageName, iconScale, textFontSize, textOffset, and textRotation properties can now be set to a source or composite function. (#8544, #8590, #8592, #8593)
Fixed an issue where setting the MGLVectorStyleLayer.predicate property failed to take effect if the relevant source was not in use by a visible layer at the time. (#8653)
Fixed an issue preventing programmatically added style layers from appearing in already cached tiles. (#8954)
Fixed an issue causing a composite function’s highest zoom level stop to be misinterpreted. (#8613, #8790)
Fixed an issue where re-adding a layer that had been previously removed from a style would reset its paint properties. Moved initializers for MGLTileSource, MGLStyleLayer, and MGLForegroundStyleLayer to their concrete subclasses; because these classes were already intended for initialization only via concrete subclasses, this should have no developer impact. (#8626)
Fixed a crash that occurred when removing a source that was still being used by one or more style layers. Since this is a programming error, a warning is logged to the console instead. (#9129)
Feature querying results now account for any changes to a feature’s size caused by a source or composite style function. (#8665)
Fixed the behavior of composite functions that specify fractional zoom level stops. (#9289)
Letter spacing is now disabled in Arabic text so that ligatures are drawn correctly. (#9062)
Improved the performance of styles using source and composite style functions. (#9185, #9257)

Annotations

Added a new initializer to MGLAnnotationView so that it is possible to create a new instance with an associated annotation object. (#9029)
Added a new rotatesToMatchCamera property to MGLAnnotationView that, when set to true, causes the annotation view to rotate along with the map's rotation angle giving the appearance that the annoation view is pinned to the map. (#9147)
Fixed an issue causing a view-backed annotation to disappear immediately instead of animating when the annotation’s coordinate property is set to a value outside the current viewport. (#8565)
Fixed an issue in which MGLMapView overrode the tint colors of its annotation views. (#8789)
Fixed an issue causing annotation views to persist in the map’s annotation container view even after their associated annotations were removed. (#9025)

Fixed an issue preventing the Mapbox Telemetry confirmation dialog from appearing when opened from within a map view in a modal view controller. (#9027)
Corrected the size of MGLMapView’s compass. (#9060)
The Improve This Map button in the attribution action sheet now leads to a feedback tool that matches MGLMapView’s rotation and pitch. -[MGLAttributionInfo feedbackURLAtCenterCoordinate:zoomLevel:] no longer respects the feedback URL specified in TileJSON. (#9078)
-[MGLMapViewDelegate mapView:shouldChangeFromCamera:toCamera:] can now block any panning caused by a pinch gesture. (#9344)
If the user taps on the map while it is flying to the user’s location, the user dot no longer appears in the incorrect location. (#7916)

3.5.3 - May 2, 2017

Fixed an issue that prevented the attribution UIAlertController from showing in modal hierarchies. (#8837)

3.5.2 - April 7, 2017

Fixed an issue that caused a crash when the user location annotation was presenting a callout view and the map was moved. (#8686)
This release was built with Xcode 8.3.1, which fixed a significant bitcode issue introduced in Xcode 8.3 that caused Mapbox iOS SDK 3.5.1 to be 2× larger than 3.5.0.

Styles

Added support for data-driven styling in the form of source and composite style functions. MGLStyleFunction is now an abstract class, with MGLCameraStyleFunction providing the behavior of MGLStyleFunction in previous releases. New MGLStyleFunction subclasses allow you to vary a style attribute by the values of attributes of features in the source. (#7596)
Added circleStrokeColor, circleStrokeWidth, and circleStrokeOpacity properties to MGLCircleStyleLayer and support for corresponding properties in style JSON files. (#7356)
Point-placed labels in symbol style layers are now placed at more optimal locations within polygons. (#7465)

When setting an MGLShapeSource’s shape to an MGLFeature instance, any UIColor attribute value is now converted to the equivalent CSS string representation for use with MGLInterpolationModeIdentity in style functions. (#8025)
An exception is no longer thrown if layers or sources are removed from a style before they are added. (#7962)
Renamed MGLStyleConstantValue to MGLConstantStyleValue. For compatibility with previous releases, MGLStyleConstantValue is now an alias of MGLConstantStyleValue. (#8090)
Fixed a crash that could occur when switching styles after adding an MGLSource to the style. (#8298)

Annotations and user interaction

Added a method to MGLMapViewDelegate, -mapView:shouldChangeFromCamera:toCamera:, that you can implement to restrict which parts the user can navigate to using gestures. (#5584)
Annotations are no longer deselected when the map is panned or zoomed, even if the annotation moves out of the visible bounds. (#8022)
Changing the coordinates of a point annotation no longer deselects the annotation. (#8269)

Double-tap and two-finger tap gestures now zoom to the nearest integer zoom level. (#8027)
The MGLAnnotationView.annotation property is now read-write. (#8139)
Enabled the one-finger zoom gesture on iPad. To execute this gesture, tap twice; on second tap, hold your finger on the map and pan up to zoom in, or down to zoom out. (#8379)

Networking and offline maps

Offline pack notifications are now posted by MGLOfflinePack instances instead of the shared MGLOfflineStorage object. For backwards compatibility, the userInfo dictionary still indicates the pack’s state and progress. (#7952)
Fixed a memory leak in MGLMapView. (#7956)
Fixed an issue that could prevent a cached style from appearing while the device is offline. (#7770)
Fixed an issue that could prevent a style from loading when reestablishing a network connection. (#7902)
MGLOfflineStorage instances now support a delegate conforming to MGLOfflineStorageDelegate, which allows altering URLs before they are requested from the Internet. (#8084)

Other changes

Fixed an issue that, among other things, caused various islands to disappear at certain zoom levels. (#7621)
Added a method to MGLMapView that allows you to specify a predicate when querying for visible features. (#8256)
Fixed flickering that occurred when panning past the antimeridian. (#7574)

A programmatic change to an MGLMapView’s camera no longer resets the user tracking mode. (#7856)
Improved the performance of trivial camera animations. (#7125)
Added a guide detailing the built-in gesture recognizers and various ways to configure them. (#7937)

3.4.1 - January 25, 2017

Fixed a build error in the static framework flavor of this SDK caused by a missing header. (#7844)
Fixed an issue causing MGLMapView’s camera’s heading to be set to a negative value, indicating an undefined heading, when the map view faces northwest. The heading is now wrapped to between zero and 360 degrees, for consistency with MGLMapView’s direction property. (#7724)
Fixed an issue where MGLMapView could initially flash black before loading. (#7859)
Deprecated the style class methods in MGLStyle. (#7785)

Added quadkey support and limited WMS support in raster tile URL templates. (#5628)
When creating an MGLTileSource, you can now specify that the tile URLs use TMS coordinates by setting MGLTileSourceOptionTileCoordinateSystem to MGLTileCoordinateSystemTMS. TileJSON files can specify "scheme": "tms". (#2270)
Fixed an issue causing abstract MGLMultiPointFeature objects to be returned in feature query results. Now concrete MGLPointCollectionFeature objects are returned. MGLMultiPointFeature is now an alias of MGLPointCollectionFeature. (#6742)
Fixed rendering artifacts and missing glyphs that occurred after viewing a large number of CJK characters on the map. (#5908)

The identifier property of an MGLFeature may now be either a number or string. (#5514)
If MGLMapView is unable to obtain or parse a style, it now calls its delegate’s -mapViewDidFailLoadingMap:withError: method. (#6145)
Added the -[MGLMapViewDelegate mapView:didFinishLoadingStyle:] delegate method, which offers the earliest opportunity to modify the layout or appearance of the current style before the map view is displayed to the user. (#6636)
Fixed crashes that could occur when loading a malformed stylesheet. (#5736)

User location

The user dot now animates between user locations when user tracking is disabled. (#6215)
To customize the appearance of the user location annotation, subclass the newly added MGLUserLocationAnnotationView class and implement -[MGLMapViewDelegate mapView:viewForAnnotation:]. (#5882)
-[MGLMapView viewForAnnotation:] now returns the user location annotation view when given the user location annotation. (#6957)

Fixed an issue that assigned annotation views to polyline and polygon annotations. (#5770)
Fixed an issue causing the callout view to be dismissed when panning around. (#6676)
Per documentation, the first and last coordinates in an MGLPolygon must be identical in order for the polygon to draw correctly. The same is true for an MGLPolygon’s interior polygon. (#5514)
To make an MGLPolyline or MGLPolygon span the antimeridian, specify coordinates with longitudes greater than 180° or less than −180°. (#6088)
Various method arguments that are represented as C arrays of CLLocationCoordinate2D instances have been marked const to streamline bridging to Swift. (#7215)
Fixed an issue that caused an annotation view to disappear if it isn’t created using the annotation view reuse queue. (#6485)

3.3.7 - November 17, 2016

This version is the same as 3.3.6 but it is built with Xcode 8 that produces a smaller binary. Developers using this version in Swift applications built with Xcode 7.3.1 should use the unstripped, *-symbols framework.

3.3.6 - November 9, 2016

Fixed a crash that occurred during low-memory situations when multiple instances of MGLMapView were in the view hierarchy. The speculative fix in v3.3.5 has been reverted. (#6972)

3.3.5 - November 2, 2016

Speculatively fixed an OpenGL rendering crash. (#6844)
Fixed an issue with symbols not being properly stripped from the dynamic framework. The dSYM file included with the standard dynamic framework in previous releases (e.g., mapbox-ios-sdk-3.3.4-dynamic.zip or the Mapbox-iOS-SDK pod) could not be used to symbolicate crashes. (#6531)
Simulator architecture slices are included in the included dSYM file, allowing you to symbolicate crashes that occur in the Simulator. (#5740)
Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when initializing an MGLMapView. (#5932)

3.3.4 - August 8, 2016

Fixed an issue that caused the user dot to be selected when tapping an annotation that lies within the user dot’s accuracy circle. First attempt was #5816 in v3.3.2, which excluded the pulsing halo but not the accuracy circle. (#5894)

3.3.3 - July 29, 2016

Fixed an issue where the style zoom levels were not respected when deciding when to render a layer. (#5811)

3.3.2 - July 28, 2016

Fixed a crash that occurred when a sprite URL lacks a file extension. See this comment to determine who may be affected by this bug. (#5723)
Fixed an issue causing overlapping polylines and polygons to be drawn in undefined z-order. Shapes are always drawn in the order they are added to the map, from the oldest on the bottom to the newest on the top. (#5710)
Fixed an issue preventing MGLMapView from changing its viewport when a single annotation was passed into -[MGLMapView showAnnotations:animated:]. (#5693)
Fixed an issue causing polyline and polygon annotations to disappear when the zoom level is one less than the maximum zoom level. (#5418)
Fixed a crash that occurred when a style or other resource URL has a query string. (#5554)
If you subclass MGLAnnotationView, your implementation of -setSelected:animated: is now called with the correct value in the animated parameter, making it possible to animate a deselection. (#5677)
The compass, Mapbox logo, and attribution button now accommodate the containing map view’s content insets. If your interface elements partially overlap the map view but do not affect the top and bottom layout guides, set the automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets property to NO and set the contentInset property to a suitable value. (#5671)
Added a property to MGLOfflineStorage, countOfBytesCompleted, that indicates the disk space occupied by all cached and offline resources. (#5585)

3.3.0 - July 14, 2016

Styles and data

Added methods to MGLMapView for obtaining the underlying map data rendered by the current style, along with additional classes to represent complex geometry in that data. (#5110)
Improved performance viewing regions with large landcover polygons when viewing a style that uses the Mapbox Streets source. (#2444)
Fixed a memory leak when using raster resources. (#5141)
Rendering now occurs on the main thread, fixing a hang when calling -[MGLMapView styleURL] before the map view has fully loaded or while the application is in the background. (#2909)
Added a -reloadStyle: action to MGLMapView to force a reload of the current style. (#4728)
A more specific user agent string is now sent with style and tile requests. (#4012)
Added a new option to MGLMapDebugMaskOptions, MGLMapDebugOverdrawVisualizationMask, that highlights overlapping drawing operations instead of the usual rendered output. (#5403)

Interactivity

The compass, user dot, and visible annotations are now accessible to VoiceOver users. (#1496)
Added a method to MGLMapView, -anchorPointForGesture:, that you can override to anchor gestures at a point other than the user location. (#5302)
Added a property to MGLMapView, decelerationRate, that allows you to speed up or slow down the drift animation at the end of a user gesture. You can also use this property to disable the drift animation entirely. (#5504)
Improved responsiveness when zooming in then immediately panning around. (#4595)
Added a new method, -[MGLMapView cameraThatFitsCoordinateBounds:], to get a camera that you can pass into -setCamera: that fits the given coordinate bounds. (#4790)

Annotations

MGLPointAnnotation and custom MGLAnnotation implementations (but not MGLMultiPoint) can be backed by an MGLAnnotationView instead of an MGLAnnotationImage. MGLAnnotationView is a subclass of UIView, so you can use Core Animation and other familiar technologies with it. To associate an MGLAnnotation with an MGLAnnotationView, implement -mapView:viewForAnnotation: in your MGLMapViewDelegate class. (#4801)
An MGLAnnotation can be relocated by changing its coordinate property in a KVO-compliant way. An MGLMultiPoint cannot be relocated. (#3835)
Setting the image property of an MGLAnnotationImage to nil resets it to the default red pin image and reclaims resources that can be used to customize additional annotations. (#3835)
An MGLPolygon can now have interior polygons, representing holes knocked out of the overall shape. (#5110)

User location

The user dot now moves smoothly between user location updates while user location tracking is disabled. (#1582)
Fixed an issue preventing KVO change notifications from being generated on MGLMapView’s userTrackingMode key path when -setUserTrackingMode:animated: is called. (#4724)
Fixed a crash setting MGLMapView’s userLocationVerticalAlignment property before a user location update has occurred. (#5278)
Mapbox Telemetry is automatically disabled while the host application is running in the iOS Simulator. (#4726)

Offline maps

MGLOfflinePackProgress now indicates how many tiles have been downloaded and how much space they take up. (#4874)
Fixed an issue where the tile cache could be included in iCloud backups on the first launch. (#5124, #5601)
Suppressed “Unable to make space for entry” console spew. (#4708)
Deprecated -[MGLMapView emptyMemoryCache]. (#4725)

Packaging

Improved the design of the generated API documentation. (#5306)
Applications linking against the SDK static framework no longer need to add -ObjC to the Other Linker Flags (OTHER_LDFLAGS) build setting. If you previously added this flag solely for this SDK, removing the flag may potentially reduce the overall size of your application. (#4641)
Removed the armv7s slice from the SDK to reduce its size. iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c automatically use the armv7 slice instead. (#4641)
The SDK is now localizable. No localizations are currently provided, other than English, but if you need a particular localization, you can install the SDK manually and drop a .lproj folder into the framework. (#4783)
Removed unused SVG files from the SDK’s resource bundle. (#4641)

Other changes

Added category methods on NSValue for converting to and from the structure types defined in MGLGeometry.h. (#4802)
Added NSFormatter subclasses for converting geographic coordinates and directions into display strings. (#4802)
Added MGLCoordinateInCoordinateBounds(), a function that tests whether or not a coordinate is in a given bounds. (#5053)

3.2.3 - June 7, 2016

Fixed an issue preventing -[MGLMapViewDelegate mapViewDidFinishLoadingMap:] from being called when returning to the view controller containing the map view from another view controller. (#5164)
Declarations in the API documentation are shown in both Objective-C and Swift. (realm/jazzy#530)

3.2.2 - May 10, 2016

Existing MGLStyle class methods that return default style URLs have been deprecated in favor of new methods that require an explicit style version parameter. The deprecated, unversioned methods continue to return version 8 of the respective styles and will not be updated as new versions of the styles are released. (#4759)
Deprecated +[MGLStyle emeraldStyleURL] with no replacement method. To use the Emerald style going forward, we recommend that you use the underlying URL. (#4759)
Added +[MGLStyle outdoorsStyleURLWithVersion:] for the new Outdoors style. (#4759)
The Hybrid style is now called Satellite Streets. (#4759)

3.2.1 - April 20, 2016

Fixed a hang that could occur if the host application attempts to set user defaults on a background queue. (#4745)
User location heading updates now resume properly when an app becomes active again. (#4674)
Fixed an issue causing hyperlinks in the documentation to be displayed as raw Markdown syntax when viewed in Xcode’s Quick Help popover or sidebar. (#4760)

3.2.0 - April 5, 2016

If you’ve previously installed the SDK as a static framework, the installation workflow has changed to address issues when submitting your application to the App Store or installing it on a device. Upon upgrading to this version of the SDK, you’ll need to add Mapbox.bundle to the Copy Bundle Resources build phase and remove Mapbox.framework from the Embed Frameworks build phase. (#4455)
Offline packs can now be downloaded to allow users to view specific regions of the map offline. A new MGLOfflineStorage class provides APIs for managing MGLOfflinePacks. (#4221)
Tiles and other resources are cached in the same file that holds offline resources. The combined cache file is located in a subdirectory of the user’s Application Support directory, which means iOS will not delete the file when disk space runs low. (#4377)
Fixed an issue where the map view’s center would always be calculated as if the view occupied the entire screen. (#4504)
The user dot no longer disappears after panning the map across the antimeridian at low zoom levels. (#4275)
The map no longer recoils when panning quickly at low zoom levels. (#4214)
Fixed an issue causing the map to pan the wrong way when the user pinches unevenly. (#4427)
The maximum zoom level is capped at 21 due to rendering issues at higher zoom levels. (#4417)
An icon laid out along a line no longer appears if it would extend past the end of the line. Some one-way arrows no longer point the wrong way. (#3839)
Fixed warping of dashed lines near sharp corners. (#3914)
Telemetry location gathering now occurs only when the device is in motion. (#4115)
An account’s monthly active users metric only counts a user once a map view is displayed to that user. (#3713)
A .dSYM bundle is included with the dynamic framework to facilitate symbolication of crash logs.
Updated documentation to reflect the requirement that you must embed the dynamic framework in the “Embedded Binaries” section in Xcode. (#4011)
Polygons and polylines now default to using the map view’s tint color. (#4028)
The user dot no longer lags when panning the map. (#3683)
The Improve This Map tool now uses the same zoom level that is currently being shown in the map view. (#4068)
Fixed a formatting issue in the documentation for MGLCoordinateBoundsIsEmpty(). (#3958)

3.1.2 - February 22, 2016

You can once again install the static framework without manually linking several framework and library dependencies. (#4029)
The location manager used by MGLMapView to show the user’s location is now paused when the application is sent to the background. (#4034)

3.1.1 - February 15, 2016

Corrected the dynamic framework’s minimum deployment target to iOS 8.0. (#3872)
Fixed Fabric compatibility. (#3847)
Fixed a crash that can occur when reselecting an annotation. (#3881)
Fixed an issue preventing the Latitude inspectable from working when it is set before setting the Zoom Level inspectable in Interface Builder. (#3886)
Fixed an issue that incorrectly expanded the tappable area of an annotation and prevented the annotation’s alignment rect insets from having any effect on the tappable area. (#3898)
Fixed an issue preventing -[MGLMapViewDelegate mapView:tapOnCalloutForAnnotation:] from being called when a non-custom callout view is tapped. (#3875)

3.1.0 - February 5, 2016

The SDK is now distributed as a dynamic framework instead of a static library, resulting in a simpler installation workflow and significantly reduced download size. The framework contains both simulator and device content. If you install the dynamic framework manually, you’ll need to strip out the simulator content before submitting your application to the App Store due to an Xcode bug; see the installation instructions included with the framework for details. (#3183)
Fixed an issue causing the entire MGLMapView to leak. (#3448)
MGLMapView methods that alter the viewport now accept optional completion handlers. (#3090)
You can now modify an annotation’s image after adding the annotation to the map. (#3146)
Tapping now selects annotations more reliably. Tapping near the top of a large annotation image now selects that annotation. An annotation image’s alignment insets influence how far away the user can tap and still select the annotation. For example, if your annotation image has a large shadow, you can keep that shadow from being tappable by excluding it from the image’s alignment rect. (#3261)
Annotations remain visible after switching to a different style. (#3049)
The minimum and maximum zoom levels can now be configured using the minimumZoomLevel and maximumZoomLevel properties, respectively. The map is no longer limited to zoom level 18: by default, the maximum zoom level is now 20, allowing for a more detailed map in urban areas. (#3712)
A new method on MGLMapView, -flyToCamera:withDuration:completionHandler:, lets you transition between viewpoints along an arc as if by aircraft. (#3171, #3301)
MGLMapCamera’s altitude values now match those of MKMapCamera. (#3362)
MGLMapView properties like centerCoordinate and camera now offset the center to account for any translucent top or bottom bar. As a result, when user tracking is enabled and the map view is an immediate child of a view controller, the user dot is centered in the unobscured portion of the map view. To override this offset, modify the contentInset property; you may also need to set the containing view controller’s automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets property to NO. (#3583)
In user tracking mode, the user dot stays in a fixed position within MGLMapView while the map pans smoothly. A new property, userLocationVerticalAlignment, determines the user dot’s fixed position. (#3589)
When the user tracking mode is set to MGLUserTrackingModeFollowWithCourse, an optional targetCoordinate is kept within sight at all times as the user changes location. This property, in conjunction with the userLocationVerticalAlignment property, may be useful for displaying the user’s progress toward a waypoint. (#3680)
Heading or course tracking mode can now be enabled as soon as an MGLMapView is initialized. (#3680)
Zooming and rotation gestures no longer disable user tracking mode. (#3589)
User tracking mode starts out at a lower zoom level by default. (#3589)
Fixed an issue with small map views not properly fitting annotations within bounds. (#3407)
When the user rotates the map to within 7° of true north, the map view now snaps to true north. (#3403)
The map view’s background can now be transparent or translucent, as long as the style’s background layer is transparent or translucent and MGLMapView.opaque is set to NO. (#3096)
Documentation is now generated by jazzy instead of appledoc. ♪♫ (#3203)
New API to provide a custom callout view to the map for annotations. (#3456)
Made telemetry on/off setting available in-app. (#3445)
Fixed an issue with users not being counted by Mapbox if they had disabled telemetry. (#3495)
Fixed crash caused by MGLAnnotationImage with non-integer width or height (#2198)
Fixed “include of non-modular header” errors in Swift projects managed by CocoaPods. (#3679)
Avoids triggering the blue background location status bar when user has granted "when in use" permission. (#3671)
Deprecated the debugActive property and -toggleDebug method on MGLMapView in favor of a new debugMask property that exposes individual style debugging options. (#3742)

3.0.1 - December 7, 2015

Fixed CoreTelephony.framework crash. (#3170)
Fixed an issue preventing the compass from responding to taps after the compass is moved programmatically. (#3117)
CocoaPods is now distributed via a (static) framework. (#3181)

3.0.0 - November 23, 2015

If you install this SDK via CocoaPods, CocoaPods version 0.38.0 or above is required. (#2132)
The styleID property has been removed from MGLMapView. Instead, set the styleURL property to an NSURL in the form mapbox://styles/STYLE_ID. If you previously set the style ID in Interface Builder’s Attributes inspector, delete the styleID entry from the User Defined Runtime Attributes section of the Identity inspector, then set the new “Style URL” inspectable to a value in the form mapbox://styles/STYLE_ID. (#2632)
Default styles such as Streets are no longer bundled with the SDK; instead, they are loaded at runtime from the style API on mapbox.com. As always, you can use these default styles with any valid access token, and Streets continues to be MGLMapView’s initial style. The bundledStyleURLs property on MGLMapView has been deprecated in favor of several class methods on MGLStyle that provide direct access to the default styles. (#2746)
The SDK now builds with Bitcode enabled. A version of libMapbox.a with Bitcode disabled is also available. (#2332, #3003)
The style URL can be set to a local resource: asset://local-color.json and local-color.json both resolve to a file named local-color.json in the application’s root folder. (#3087)
The double-tap-drag gesture for zooming in and out is now consistent with the Google Maps SDK. (#2153)
A new MGLAnnotationImage.enabled property allows you to disable touch events on individual annotations. (#2501)
Fixed a rendering issue that caused one-way arrows along tile boundaries to point due east instead of in the direction of travel. (#2530)
Fixed an issue that prevented zoom level–dependent style properties from updating after zooming programmatically with animation. (#2951)
Performance and appearance improvements during annotation adds & removes. (#1688)
Overall improved performance during renders by not rendering faster than necessary. (#1975)
Fixed a rendering issue with styles that use the background-pattern property. (#2531)
Fixed a crash when reusing a single MGLMapView across multiple UIViewControllers. (#2969)
Fixed a crash on iPod touch and other devices or simulators without a cell carrier. (#2687)
Eliminated flickering when opening and closing an overlay, such as an alert or action sheet. (#2309)
Labels can now line wrap on hyphens and other punctuation. (#2598)
A new delegate callback was added for observing taps to annotation callout views. (#2596)
-mapViewRegionIsChanging: is now sent to the map view’s delegate during gestures. (#2700)
Improved gesture recognition while the map is tilted. (#2770)
-mapViewWillStartLoadingMap: and -mapViewDidFinishLoadingMap: delegate methods now work. (#2706)
Removed CoreTelephony.framework dependency. (#2581)
Improved user location annotation responsiveness. (#2643)

2.1.2 - September 15, 2015

Built with Xcode 6.4 to not yet trigger Bitcode compatibility until Xcode 7 stabilizes. (#2332)

2.1.1 - September 15, 2015

Fixes for Xcode 7 and Bitcode. (#2238)

2.1.0 - September 14, 2015

A two-finger vertical swipe now tilts the map into perspective mode. (#2116)
A new MGLMapCamera API allows you to transition multiple viewpoint properties, including rotation and pitch, simultaneously with an optional custom duration and timing function. (#2193)
A new user tracking mode, MGLUserTrackingModeFollowWithCourse, has been added for indicating the current direction of travel. (#2068)
Version 8 (v8) of the Mapbox GL style spec is now required. If you are using a custom v7 style, it needs to be upgraded using this migrator script. (#2052)
Applications built with Mapbox GL no longer crash when Location Services launches them in background mode. (#1821, #1869)
Fixed a crash when adding annotations to an MGLMapView inside -viewDidLoad. (#1874)
The user location annotation view now indicates the location reading’s accuracy and the device’s heading. (#2010)
Eliminated linker warnings and errors when building against the iOS 9.0 SDK in Xcode 7. (#1962)
Worked around a bug in the iOS 9.0 SDK that caused a crash on launch. (#1958)
User location tracking no longer sends MGLMapView into an invalid region on iOS 9. (#1925)
Eliminated console spew in the iOS demo application that was related to Mapbox Metrics HTTP requests. (#1937)
Implemented -[MGLMapView showAnnotations:animated:]. (#2050)
Fixed a crash adding a shape annotation with zero points. (#2098)
Debug mode now displays information useful for debugging the label collision algorithm. (#1808)
Minor style updates. (#1910)
The CocoaPods pod now contains a README.md file. (#1886)

2.0.0 - August 21, 2015

Repackaging 2.0.0-pre.1 as it contained no issues.

iOS

Added support for CocoaPods 0.38.0. (#1876)

0.5.0 - July 9, 2015

Core

Support for runtime marker imagery. (#941)
Added Map::fitBounds() for region-based viewport setting. (#1092)
Added a raster satellite bundled style and improved raster rendering. (#963)
Improved round line joins for semi-transparent lines. (#1839)
Improved map render lifecycle notifications. (#1026)
Fixed a bug that caused annotations not to show at zoom level zero. (#1279)
Fixed a bug with the ordering of shape layers. (#1866)
Other bug fixes and performance improvements.

iOS

Breaking: Headers now make use of lightweight generics, eliminating many unnecessary casts when working with annotations in Swift 2.0 in Xcode 7. (#1711)
Breaking: -mapView:symbolNameForAnnotation: has been removed from the MGLMapViewDelegate protocol. Implement -mapView:imageForAnnotation: instead, which accepts images at runtime. (#941)
Breaking: MGLMapView.direction is now expressed in terms of degrees clockwise from true north, as indicated in the documentation, rather than counterclockwise. (#1789)
A Satellite style showing Mapbox Satellite imagery is now bundled with Mapbox GL. (#1845)
Improved UIView tracking to the map. (#1813)
Delegate method -[MGLMapViewDelegate mapView:didFailToLocateUserWithError:] now works. (#1608)
It is now possible to fit the map’s viewport to a coordinate bounding box via -[MGLMapView setVisibleCoordinateBounds:animated:] or to a specific set of coordinates via -[MGLMapView setVisibleCoordinates:count:edgePadding:animated:]. (#1783, #1795)
The logo and ℹ️ no longer disappear or get distorted after embedding MGLMapView in a different view, and you can now access these subviews directly via properties on MGLMapView. (#1779, #1815)
Raster tiles now look sharper midway between two zoom levels. (#1843)
Resetting the map rotation to north no longer also resets the user location tracking mode. (#1809)
-[MGLMapView convertPoint:toCoordinateFromView:] now returns accurate coordinates on iPhone 6. (#1827)
Fixed an issue in which -[MGLMapView direction] would sometimes return 360 instead of 0. (#1829)

Improved z-ordering appearance of point markers. (#988)
Fixed an issue in which certain features, such as roundabouts, were not rendered completely. (#1725)
Many bug fixes and performance and stability improvements.
Improved tests.

iOS

Breaking: MGLMapView no longer manages Mapbox access tokens directly; an access token cannot be passed in when initializing the map view. Instead, set MGLMapboxAccessToken to your access token in your app’s Info.plist file, or call +[MGLAccountManager setAccessToken:] before initializing the map view. If you were setting the access token inside an Interface Builder inspectable, also remove it from the User Defined Runtime Attributes section of the Identity inspector. (#1553)
Breaking: MGLAccountManager's -setMapboxMetricsEnabledSettingShownInApp: has been removed. If you implement a Mapbox Metrics switch inside your app, instead of inside a Settings bundle, set MGLMapboxMetricsEnabledSettingShownInApp to YES in the Info.plist file. (#1553)
Breaking: MGLMapView's -mapID has been renamed to -styleID. (#1561)
Headers have been audited for nullability, improving type safety in both Objective-C and Swift 1.2 when compiling with Xcode 6.3 or above. (#1578)
Fixed an issue in which the map would sometimes spin 180° while rotating the map with two fingers. (#1453)
Added a shortcut to the Mapbox Metrics switch in MGLMapView's action sheet that is attached to the ℹ️ button. (#1611)
MGLMapView now supports Interface Builder designables. When you add an MGLMapView to a storyboard, it displays instructions for getting set up directly on the storyboard canvas. (#1573)
The default title for the user location annotation is now “You Are Here”. You can customize the title by setting mapView.userAnnotation.title. (#1559)
Internal use of the Reachability library has been cleaned up so that your app can include its own copy of Reachability. (#1718)
Now distribute a binary stripped of debugging symbols by default with an optional, secondary symbols build. (#1650)
