The main areas of change Maps SDK for Android v.3 are as follows:

From the documentation:

  • The Maps SDK for Android is now distributed via a standalone static library. Previously, the Maps SDK for Android was made available as part of Google Play services.
  • Android 4.0-4.0.4 ("Ice Cream Sandwich") is no longer supported.
  • Map rendering has been modernized and improved.
  • Text labels for POIs are now clickable, rather than just the icon.
  • Business POIs are now visible in indoor maps.

  • Added support for 3D buildings with full models, e.g. Eiffel Tower.
  • Increased opacity of 3D buildings to match the Google Maps application.
  • Resolved an issue where markers were loading slowly (Issue 35822423).
