On a phone, you can now press and hold the map to do what a right-click does on a desktop.

  • On an empty spot, it shows Set location.
  • While you edit a feature’s geometry, it shows Add vertex, Delete vertex or Move point here.

The bottom sheet stays where you put it. A swipe over the feature list scrolls the list, and does not drag the sheet. The sheet also does not jump when you pick a feature or return to the list. A tap on a feature on the map is the only action that raises the sheet. When the keyboard opens, the sheet stays open above it. If a menu is open in the sheet, Escape closes that menu.

You can scroll the settings panel, and it does not go past the bottom of the screen. A tap near a small feature selects it, so you do not have to hit it exactly.

How to try it

  1. Open a map on a phone.
  2. To see Set location, press and hold an empty part of the map.
  3. Drag the sheet by its handle.
  4. Swipe the feature list. The list scrolls, and the sheet does not move.
  5. Open the settings from the top of the panel.
  6. Scroll the settings.

Open a map in the User Guide covers this in full.
