DISCLAIMER: This is unofficial version that is provided as an early-feedback preview. It will be submitted for merge into Poor Maps proper and is not a permanent fork. This version is provided with the hope that it will be useful for you and to allow you to participate in the development through feedback, patches, and other possible means. /DISCLAIMER

As a part of Mapbox GL-based releases, I have just released Poor Maps GL at OpenRepos: https://openrepos.net/content/rinigus/poor-maps-gl . This is an application that uses Mapbox GL to show the map and interact with it. Care has been taken to make it possible to install and use it in parallel with the Poor Maps proper. So, it should be safe to use it if your hardware supports it.

Poor Maps GL incorporates also the work on voice prompts, so you would get voice navigation instructions as a part of the package.

I expect us to hit Mapbox limits for free tile downloads. If it happens, I'll stop the API key and the access to online maps will disappear. As OSM Scout Server supports Mapbox GL from today, consider using it for your vector tile access.

Please file the issues regarding this version at https://github.com/rinigus/poor-maps . That would allow me to fix them before submitting PR for merging. When the PR will be submitted, we'll let you know about the link for filing issues.

I hope you'll enjoy using it!
