10.0.0
According to the Mobile OS version support policy, we are freezing support for iOS 15 as of Maps SDK for iOS v10.0.0. The new minimum supported OS is iOS 16. Earlier SDK versions will continue supporting iOS 15.
If your dependencies do not specify a version number, your IDE will load the newest SDK version and new builds of your app will not support iOS 15.
Specify a version of the Maps SDK for iOS in your application's build dependencies in order to control when you raise the minimum supported OS for new versions of your app.
10.0.0
The compass button in active navigation mode has been updated. The size and style has been updated to match other Google Maps Mobile offerings, though the default position has not changed. To avoid driver distraction, the compass will remain in the same position if the header (in portrait mode) expands and conflicts with the default position of the compass. If you add a secondary header custom control or header accessory view, the compass is now hidden to avoid UI conflicts. The compass now supports day and night modes, as well as dark mode.
10.0.0
The default behavior is updated to display automatic dark mode to match Apple norms and accessibility requirements. Previously, the default was to always display light mode. You can set this back to the UIUserInterfaceStyle.light interface style if you would like your app to only display light mode.
10.0.0
The mapViewDidFinishTileRendering API is not invoked in no-network conditions.
10.0.0
In the next major version of Maps SDK for iOS, compassButton in GMSUISettings will be shown by default.

You can now set the map color scheme to dark, light, or to use the system settings.
For more information and examples, see Map color scheme.
9.0.0
Simplified the install process when using the Swift Package Manager by changing the dependencies for the Maps SDK for iOS. Previously, you had to add dependencies for GoogleMapsBase, GoogleMapsCore, and GoogleMaps to your project. With this release, you only have to add GoogleMaps. We have also removed GoogleMapsM4B from the Maps Swift package.
Because of this change, if you upgrade from an older version to 9.0.0, you need to remove GoogleMapsBase, GoogleMapsCore, and GoogleMapsM4B from your project dependencies after you upgrade to version 9.0.0.
9.0.0
Since Apple has deprecated OpenGL support as of iOS 12 (2018), support for the OpenGL renderer and the setMetalRendererEnabled boolean in the Maps SDK for iOS is deprecated as of v9.0.0 , and will be unsupported in the major version that will be released in the second quarter of 2025.
Instead, use the Metal renderer, which has been default since Maps SDK for iOS v8.0.0, and remove setMetalRendererEnabled from your codebase.
8.4.0
The new minimum supported version of Xcode is 15.0.
8.5.0
With the release of the Places SDK for iOS version 8.5, the latest version of the Maps SDK for iOS remains v.8.4.0.
February 20, 20248.4.0
To streamline the SDK, the obsolete GoogleMapsM4B module in the Maps SDK for iOS is deprecated as of February 2024, and will be unsupported in the major version that will be released in the second quarter of 2025.
Since the GoogleMapsM4B module is related to an obsolete billing plan, it is safe to remove dependencies on the legacy GoogleMapsM4B module in your app. If you use CocoaPods to install the Maps SDK for iOS, remove the GoogleMapsM4B pod from the list of dependencies in your Podfile. If you manually install the Maps SDK for iOS, remove the GoogleMapsM4B framework from your project.

Versions of Maps and Places SDKs for iOS that release beginning the second quarter of 2023 will support a minimum of iOS 14. Earlier SDK versions will continue supporting iOS 13.
If your dependencies do not specify a version number, your IDE will load the newest SDK version and new builds of your app will not support iOS 13.
Be sure to specify a version in your application's build dependencies in order to control when you raise the minimum supported OS for new versions of your app.
7.0.0
Version 7.0 - June 27, 2022Support for iOS 12 is now frozen. The minimum iOS version is now 13.0.
The new minimum version of Xcode is 13.0.
Bug fixes
Fix an issue where apps running in the iOS simulator would crash when using the Metal renderer (Issue 208593323).
Fix crash that occurred occasionally when a GMSMapView instance was released.
Features
cloud-based maps styling lets you style, customize, and manage your maps using the Google Cloud console. cloud-based maps styling is a paid feature accessed by adding a map ID to your app. The map ID triggers a map load charged against the Dynamic Maps SKU for Maps SDK for iOS.
In previous releases of the Maps SDK for iOS, if you exceeded your usage quota for the map ID, your app displayed an error message to the user. With this release, if you exceed your usage quota, cloud-based maps styling is disabled and your map appears without any custom styling. Error messages are no longer displayed to the user.
Version 6.1.1 - March 22, 2022Bug fixes
Fixed an issue where labels disappeared at certain zoom levels when using a custom style.
Fixed an issue where a deadlock could occur when using the Metal renderer.
Features
Maps SDK for iOS v2.5 and lower are now deprecated and will be fully decommissioned in January 2023.
Application versions built with Maps SDK for iOS v2.5 and lower will no longer work after those versions are decommissioned. To avoid disruption for your users, build new versions of your application with Maps SDK for iOS v2.6 or higher and encourage users to upgrade to the newer versions of your app before January 2023.
Note that v2.6 supports a minimum of iOS 8, which will be the new minimum OS supported by Maps SDK for iOS, so users may need to upgrade their version of iOS as well.
Version 2.6 also supports a minimum of Xcode 8.0, so this deprecation also raises the minimum IDE supported by Maps SDK for iOS.
Be sure to specify a version in your application's build dependencies in order to control which version of the SDK you build with, which has implications on minimum OS supported for your users. See the guidance on app maintenance best practices which encourages specifying the newest version available in order to access the latest features and bugfixes.
Version 6.0.1 - December 9, 2021Features
Features
The appearAnimation field on GMSMarker can now be set to kGMSMarkerAnimationFadeIn to cause the marker to fade in when added.
(Beta) This release contains a preview of support for the XCFramework format. You can now install the Maps SDK for iOS as an XCFramework, a binary package that you can use on multiple platforms including machines using the M1 chipset.
Google recommends that you only use this Beta release for development and testing, and rely on the .framework version of the SDK for your production apps.
Bug fixes
Support for iOS 11 is now frozen. The minimum iOS version is now 12.0.
The new minimum version of Xcode is 12.0.
Support for cloud-based maps styling is generally available as of October 27, 2021 in SDK versions 5.0 and newer. These features, tied to a map ID, will incur charges against the Dynamic Maps SKU.
Version 5.2.0 - October 19, 2021Features
Opt-in support added for using the Metal rendering framework from Apple. To try the Metal renderer in your app, call [GMSServices setMetalRendererEnabled:YES] in Objective-C, or GMSServices.setMetalRendererEnabled(true) in Swift before creating any map views.
If you are Installing the SDK manually, you must also add the Metal.framework in XCode.
Polylines can now have a repeated image, or stamp, over the line. See the GMSPolyline Class reference for more information.
Bug fixes
Known issues
Texture stamp images can appear distorted on polylines when using the OpenGL renderer (Issue 200024432).
Polylines with segments that meet at an acute angle may appear differently on the OpenGL or Metal renderers (Issue 200025456).
In response to changes in our internal dependencies, we are freezing support for iOS 12 in an upcoming major version of Maps SDK for iOS.
Versions of Maps SDK for iOS released beginning the second quarter of 2022 will support a minimum of iOS 13. Earlier SDK versions will continue supporting iOS 12.
If your dependencies in CocoaPods or Carthage don't specify a version number, Xcode will load the newest version and new builds of your app won't support iOS 12.
Be sure to specify a version in your application's build dependencies in order to control when you raise the minimum supported OS for new versions of your app. See the guidance on app maintenance best practices.
Beta SDK deprecation - August 18, 2021Deprecation
The Beta versions of Maps SDK for Android and iOS are now deprecated and will be fully decommissioned in late 2022. A supported version of the Maps SDK for Android and iOS will be made available at least one year prior to the beta SDK being fully decommissioned, which is estimated to occur in late 2022.
The use of the mobile Maps SDKs (Android & iOS) Beta will be degraded per the following schedule:
For Android:
For iOS:
On all platforms, the Beta SDKs will be fully decommissioned, at least one year after a supported (non-Beta) version is released. We will communicate with you again once the new version is released, so that you can start your migration efforts.
What do you need to do?
If you are not using features in Beta (maps customization, marker collision handling, or polyline customization—Android, iOS), update your apps to use a supported version as soon as possible before the decommission in late 2022. See the Android and iOS documentation for instructions.
If you are using features in Beta, you should wait for upcoming releases of the SDKs to migrate to a supported SDK version.
Contact Google Maps Platform Support with any questions.
Freezing support for iOS 11 - July 20, 2021In response to changes in our internal dependencies, we are freezing support of iOS 11 in an upcoming major version of Google Maps Platform SDKs for iOS.
Versions of Maps SDK for iOS released beginning the fourth quarter of 2021 will support a minimum of iOS 12. Earlier SDK versions will continue supporting iOS 11.
If your dependencies in CocoaPods or Carthage don't specify a version number, Xcode will load the newest version and new builds of your app won't support iOS 11.
Be sure to specify a version in your application's build dependencies in order to control when you raise the minimum supported OS for new versions of your app. See the guidance on app maintenance best practices.

This release introduces custom styling of the base map (Issue 4968). You can use a JSON style declaration to create a GMSMapStyle instance and pass it to the mapStyle property, to change the visual display of features like roads, parks, businesses, and other points of interest. You can use styling to emphasize particular components of the map, or make the map complement the style of your app. Styling works only on the kGMSTypeNormal map type.
It is now possible to apply "night mode" to maps, by applying custom styles. (Issue 5661.)
Business points of interest (POIs) now appear by default on the map, provided that the map type is kGMSTypeNormal. Prior to this release, local POIs appeared on the map, but not business POIs). Business POIs represent businesses such as shops, restaurants, hotels, and more. See the guide to points of interest.
With the addition of business points of interest, there is a new optional method didTapPOIWithPlaceID on GMSMapViewDelegate which provides notification when a POI has been tapped. (Issue 8174.)
You can hide POIs on a map by using map styling.

Version 1.4 introduces changes to accessibility and ground overlays. If you make use of either of these in your application, you will have to modify any existing code as follows:
If your application relies on the accessibility elements of GMSMapView, set the accessibilityElementsHidden property to NO.
mapView_.accessibilityElementsHidden = NO;
Replace direct references to the GMSGroundOverlay zoomLevel property with the new groundOverlayWithPosition:icon:zoomLevel: convenience method. Alternatively, you can position the image with a geographic bounds. The below code samples are equivalent.
Version 1.3.x assigned zoomLevel directly.
GMSGroundOverlay *groundOverlay = [[GMSGroundOverlay alloc] init];
groundOverlay.icon = [UIImage imageNamed:@"newark_nj_1922.jpg"];
groundOverlay.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(40.742, -74.174);
groundOverlay.zoomLevel = 13.6;
In version 1.4 and later, you can use the convenience method.
GMSGroundOverlay *groundOverlay = [GMSGroundOverlay groundOverlayWithPosition:newark
icon:[UIImage imageNamed:@"newark_nj_1922.jpg"]
zoomLevel:13.6];
From this release, we recommend that you position your ground overlay by defining its south west and north east corners.
CLLocationCoordinate2D southWest = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(40.712216,-74.22655);
CLLocationCoordinate2D northEast = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(40.773941,-74.12544);
GMSCoordinateBounds *overlayBounds = [[GMSCoordinateBounds alloc] initWithCoordinate:southWest
coordinate:northEast];
UIImage *icon = [UIImage imageNamed:@"newark_nj_1922.jpg"];
GMSGroundOverlay *overlay =
[GMSGroundOverlay groundOverlayWithBounds:overlayBounds

When upgrading to the most recent version, you will have to modify any existing code as follows:
width and stroke properties of GMSPolyline with strokeWidth and strokeColor. The behavior is otherwise the same.including method of GMSCoordinateBounds with a call to includingCoordinate.GMSGroundOverlayOptions, GMSMarkerOptions or GMSPolylineOptions.GMSGroundOverlay, GMSMarker and GMSPolyline are now concrete classes, not protocols. Specify them as GMSMarker *, instead of id<GMSMarker>.map property instead of calling the add...Overlay method.map property to nil (rather than calling remove).Below is an example of how to add a polyline to the map in version 1.1:
GMSPolylineOptions *lineOptions = [GMSPolylineOptions options];
GMSMutablePath *path = [GMSMutablePath path];
[path addCoordinate:CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(37.35, -122.0)];
[path addCoordinate:CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(37.45, -122.0)];
lineOptions.color = [UIColor blueColor];
lineOptions.path = path;
id<GMSPolyline> line = [mapView_ addPolylineWithOptions:lineOptions];
The equivalent code in version 1.2.0 and later is:
GMSMutablePath *path = [GMSMutablePath path];
[path addCoordinate:CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(37.35, -122.0)];
[path addCoordinate:CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(37.45, -122.0)];

line.strokeColor = [UIColor blueColor];
line.map = mapView_;
