Maps and navigation
Switch over to Maplibre Native GL based plugin Use community-supported Maplibre Native GL instead of Mapbox GL Native. The switch is done on QML plugin level. For end-users, the most visible change is in improvement of HiDPI support on some platforms (Pasma Mobile, for example)
Show traffic impact on route and Update route traffic info while routing When routing provider supports traffic information (HERE so far), that traffic info is shown and updated periodically.
Notify the changes in positioning precision during navigation Voice prompt is given on change of the positioning state to give a feedback on losing and gaining the signal from positioning device, such as when entering and later exiting from the tunnel.
Switch to SVG based map icons
Update build scripts [pabloyoyoista]
Update Ubuntu Touch build scripts [jonnius]
Add support for HERE through dedicated profile Add support for HERE search and routing. HERE routing brings support for routing that is aware of current traffic. For compliance with HERE use conditions, HERE support is added using separate HERE - online profile.
Add support for MapTiler Add support for MapTiler.com map provider and make it default. MapTiler is also made default font provider for online profile.
Add and fix Geoclue2 plugin [fix by tpikonen] As Geoclue2 Qt plugin had bugs, bundle Geoclue2 plugin with Pure Maps and apply fixes by tpikonen. Later, when fixes will propagate from Qt to Linux distributions, this bundled plugin can be removed.
Set center of the map as a reference point for geocoders Use center of the map as a reference point for search engines. This replaces current location as a reference. With the new reference, you can choose area of interest and it will be used while performing the search by search engines that use geo coordinates when performing search.
Add support for licenses As some providers require users to accept end-user license agreements, add support for showing licenses. Licenses can be accepted or declined.
Disable plugins with missing API keys or licenses As some API keys could be not available or user may have declined end-user license agreement, disable plugins accordingly.
Indicate when routing has failed
Fix direction calculations used by positioning source
Allow to use system-wide Geomag [tpikonen]
Update Ubuntu Touch packaging [jonnius]
Allow to specify accuracy of positioning
Update translations
Bugfixes
Try to activate map matching if requested Packagers don't need to specify anymore whether map matching is supported or not. Pure Maps will try to activate DBus if user requested map matching and the activation will just fail if OSM Scout Server is not installed or is not configured for DBus activation.
Revise API keys handling API keys are now provided by packagers using different format.
Add app-specific PositionSource
Make new PositionSource that merges positioning information as provided by Qt with map matching. Using this dedicated PositionSource, calculate direction of motion when geoclue2 plugin of Qt is used. This allows to fix current bug in loading geoclue2 direction value present in Qt plugin as well as avoid ambiguity of this readout in geoclue2 (mixing direction of motion and orientation of the device in space within the same heading property). Thanks to newton688 and tpikonen for raising the issue, debugging, and proposing fixes.
