Switching Map Styles

1
The SDK currently supports the following map styles:
2
MapView.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL,    // Standard
3
MapView.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE, // Satellite
4
MapView.MAP_TYPE_NIGHT      // Night

Set Style When the Map Is Ready

Set your desired style in onMapReady. You can use the style-loaded callback to further customize layers and sources:

1
mapView.getMapAsync(new OnMapReadyCallback() {
2
    @Override
3
    public void onMapReady(@NonNull NextbillionMap nextbillionMap) {
4
        nextbillionMap.setStyle(MapView.MAP_TYPE_NIGHT, style -> {
5
            // Style is loaded. Add custom layers, sources, symbols here.
6
        });
7
    }
8
});

Recommendations

• Coordinate with tile switching: After changing the tile server, call setStyle(...) to force a reload so the new base tiles are immediately reflected.
• Performance: Style switches require re-loading of resources. It is recommended to do so at clear UX moments (e.g., theme toggle).
• Night mode: Consider aligning MAP_TYPE_NIGHT with system dark mode or your app’s theme.
