Hello. I'm trying to use the map control, but my maps look like this Image1. How can do I get maps that look like this? Image 2
Hey @MalryTech ,
I think this video from Shane young should help you out: PowerApps Google Maps API - Build your first App (youtube.com)
Thanks @DBO_DV. I've watched Shane's video a few times. But that's for a static and Google map. I need a dynamic map. Not sure if it's still true or not, but I read dynamic Google maps are not available in Power Apps, so I was trying to use the built in Map control. I have it working, plotting map points, and routing. It just looks like a map from the early 2000s.
Yes sadly we have nothing modern and beautiful right now.
I just added a link that opens google maps on m phone with the map point i wanted. That's the only way i know to get around this map and also the way most apps would work.
I’ve taken that approach as well. It’s just in every tutorial I’ve watched, when someone inserts a map control, their map looks modern. When you get a minute, please see if your map looks like mine when you insert a map control? That way I know it’s not just me. I’d really appreciate it.
Hey try to change this option.
Tried that too. I take it your Road map looked like mine? I wanna know what Shane and April Dunham have access to that we don’t.
Could you send a Screenshot? I don't know what you mean.
Greetings @DBO_DV. Apologies for the late reply. I've been vacation. Do you mean other than the screenshot above?
No I mean a Screenshot of the map you want to have. now you've just send screenshots of the map you have.
