Our latest version, 2026.01.08, is available in all release channels!

Updates include more visual refreshes on Android (moving to Material 3) and an expanded #OpenStreetMap editor.

The OSM editor now supports a number of POI types that require multiple tags, like adding statues, Buddhist temples, coffee vending machines, etc.

See the full release notes for details!
