A collection of bugs I encountered using the map component

1) drawer navigation issues

iOS using a drawer navigation and map on a screen, the swipe event will scroll the map while you would expect it to stay at its current location.
android using a drawer navigation and (full screen) map on Android, the swipe event will not work and you’re unable to open the drawer at all



2) display menu elements

iOS Menu Elements are not shown though they are enabled in properties. Scale and Compass only show while scaling / rotating map
android Menu Elements are not shown at all. Neither MyLocationButton nor ShowsCompass nor ToolbarEnabled would show anything on the screen on both, iOS and Android.



3) show / follow user location

iOS working.
android does not show or follow user location at all if enabled. Also the app does only ask for approximate location (network based) when installing and does not use location services at all according to the status bar when running.

Thank you so much for this feedback! We are actually working on an upgrade to Maps so this will be very much used. Our plan is also to support adding markers and lines to your map.

Let us know if there’s anything else you are looking for-
