Bing Maps SDK for Android and iOS retirement

Bing Maps SDK for Android and iOS is deprecated and will be retired. Free (Basic) account customers can continue to use Bing Maps SDK for Android and iOS until June 30th, 2025. Enterprise account customers can continue to use Bing Maps SDK for Android and iOS until June 30th, 2028. To avoid service disruptions, all implementations using Bing Maps SDK for Android and iOS will need to be updated to use Azure Maps Web SDK by the retirement date that applies to your Bing Maps for Enterprise account type.

Azure Maps is Microsoft's next-generation maps and geospatial services for developers. Azure Maps has many of the same features as Bing Maps for Enterprise, and more. To get started with Azure Maps, create a free Azure subscription and an Azure Maps account. For more information about azure Maps, see Azure Maps Documentation. For migration guidance, see Bing Maps Migration Overview.

Defines primary data source for rendering map.

Android

public enum MapRenderMode
{
    RASTER,
    VECTOR
}

iOS

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, MSMapRenderMode)
{
    MSMapRenderModeRaster,
    MSMapRenderModeVector
}

Values

Raster

Pre-rendered raster tiles are downloaded and used to display the map. This will generally give the fastest framerate.

Vector

Vector data is downloaded and rendered client side to display the map. This will use less data for sustained map use since vector data covers a larger area with a smaller amount of data than raster tiles. Labels are also rendered client side which makes them more readable since they are not scaled like the background tiles.
