New map styles in 2024

With the app update 2.16.7, we have made a few changes to our map styles.

Various map styles are available to you in the Bound settings. The style you have selected will be displayed to the players in your Bound in Find spot elements and on the map in the menu in the app. Note: Only one style per Bound can be selected.

Important: All styles from Stamen (Terrain, Toner and Watercolour) will be replaced by alternatives from OpenStreetMap.

Note: The style "Google Melanzani" is no longer selectable for your Bounds. You had set this style for your Bound? Don't worry, it will still be displayed to your players.

As a general rule, players with older versions of the Actionbound app will be shown OpenStreetMap Bright if maps are not available.

The preview in the Bound Creator also only ever shows OpenStreetMap Bright.

Tip: Would you like to view the selected map style in the app? Click "Test in the app" above the element in the Bound Creator to view an element in test mode in the app!

The following styles are available until further notice:

  • Google Maps Aerial
  • Google Maps

  • OpenStreetMap Basic (new)

  • OpenStreetMap Bright
  • OpenStreetMap Liberty (new)
  • OpenStreetMap Positron (new)
  • OpenStreetMap Toner (replacement)
  • OpenStreetMap Darkmatter (new)
  • OpenStreetMap Qaunt (new)
  • OpenStreetMap Klokantech 3D (new)
  • OpenStreetMap Fiord Colour (new)
  • OpenStreetMap High Contrast Pattern (new)

Want to know how to choose from the different styles? Then take a look at our manual in the article on map styles. There you will also learn how to create a track visible on maps for your players.

Have fun trying it out!
