@Corjan-Meijerink
Since the topic is topical here... in which cycle are the HERE maps in the Planner renewed?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Mopetenpit route calculation is always the newest. Map images (the actual visual overlay) around every few weeks. They don’t change that often.

@Corjan-Meijerink, Just curious then, why we so often see updates to the offline maps available each few days?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Con-Hennekens good question and I’m not totally sure how they are related.

New SDK versions allows using newer maps. I guess these are major/minor versions. As example: 2.x
Offline maps update also fetches the newest world catalog within I guess that major/minor version so you would end with example version 2.x.y.

Something like that?

Note: the catalog update is instant (give or take a second). However the update also downloads the newest maps of the regions you have offline and that takes way longer.

The known issues with this will be worked on in the coming week.

@Corjan-Meijerink I changed the street name where I live and it is approved. I wonder how long it will take for it to be visible in the app.

@Bart-DM, Did you change your streetname where you live to Bartstreet?

[Bart De Medts]

@Con-Hennekens yes exact 🤩
