1. Understand what custom maps do 0:00
This video shows how to use custom maps in the mobile app.
Custom maps are created in the web app first.
On the web app, you define:
which layers appear on the map
the background
the map extent
the symbology for each layer
2. Open the mobile app and view your available layers 0:24
In the mobile app, open the filter button on the right.
This shows all the layers currently available on your map.
You can use this area to see what is turned on and what is available to change.
3. Apply a custom map from the Map menu 0:40
Tap the Map button in the mobile app.
Select a custom map you created in the web app.
The mobile app will update to match the web version of that map.
It will:
hide layers that are not part of the custom map
turn on layers that are included in the custom map
4. Review the map after the custom map is applied 0:57
After selecting a custom map, the map display updates to show the chosen configuration.
You should see the expected:
background
features
enabled layers
This gives you the same look and layer setup you configured on the web app.
5. Adjust layers manually if needed 1:18
Even after applying a custom map, you can still make manual changes.
You can turn specific layers on or off.
You can continue adjusting the map to fit what you want to see.
6. Switch to another custom map or return to default 1:27
If you choose a different custom map, the layer setup changes again.
The map updates to reflect that new custom configuration.
You can also clear the custom map selection to go back to the default view.
Note: clearing may keep the current layer state from the custom map until you manually change it.
7. Why use custom maps 1:50
Custom maps help you clean up the map and reduce clutter.
They let you show only the layers and information you want.
This makes the mobile app easier to use and focused on the right content.
