> You may have projects using the legacy renderer that will be decommissioned by March 3, 2025. Apps built with the Maps SDK for Android have been automatically updated to the latest renderer as of June 2024.
> Hello Google Maps Platform Customer,
> 
> This is a follow up to the announcements sent in 2021 and 2022 regarding the new renderer for Maps SDK for Android. To provide an improved user experience and app performance, apps built with the Maps SDK for Android have been automatically updated to the latest renderer <https://notifications.google.com/g/p/ANiao5rHUSQmtxQPuR_Hi4TKlXg4tDqZbIsAS4xHjdtMiIM8Iz_FPvm2l00KqUjFv-mhLcAO8Cnr970lX17kWQ3DGin8NvQNXhw9opzVmSFdHJMGsLogD-htvqUPy4B6hrGWBGrSEEaV3r8VwckYy4nLvlW5HATDKq7hWF1lxGQQgevvC0sVebKONIj5FqeaPoJPuM9LTqfvYiHX19qGITnSp-3vfJdE9mc0kVh_a_UaOC5IcPnhdIY6tqsRMeW8k14pveA> as of June 2024. The legacy renderer is scheduled for decommissioning on March 3, 2025.
> 
> What you need to know
> 
> The new renderer was introduced in Maps SDK for Android version 18.0 in an opt-in manner. It is offered as a default starting on version 18.2, with an option to specify the Legacy renderer (Renderer.LEGACY) <https://notifications.google.com/g/p/ANiao5p_sMP-kXkk44kzDTYbQeeigaHx4l8GtYY7izDk-BHpsl2Gc7CHMw5fXHtl-OhNHMG5Jp_2MivSH448TtJ1vL3kmFw3ZAqFAKJdX4izbFu2JpH2l9EwEu-l_e50RPmVYnyIm6QYAxLvSE5-vyLUdFanfhOCMNfZllXoguSBNd8mYV2CBv7O3vRPlIpkEJZOEx9VzcLavsKC-BhDRg2OyXiJ910MRQMldTFk5YF8VcInD_IroI8bfrcwPRwNE2Let4aS54DxcAzDNA>.
> 
> Your app may be currently using the legacy renderer in two situations.
> 
> Situation 1. If you use Maps SDK for Android version < 18, or 18.0-18.1 without opting in the new renderer:
> We temporarily excluded your apps from the automatic migration because of issues occurring with the new renderer.
> Situation 2. If you specify the legacy renderer (on version 18.0 or later):
> Your application will continue receiving the legacy renderer until March 2025. Starting in March 2025, you will get the new renderer even if you specify the Legacy renderer.
> During the migration period, Google will continue to provide support and fixes to major bugs and outages on the legacy renderer. New features and improvements are only offered on the new renderer.
> 
> The new renderer is currently only available on Android phones. If your app is used on Wear OS or Android Go, the new renderer will be available in Google Play Services at a later time. Please follow the progress on this rollout by starring this issue tracker entry <https://notifications.google.com/g/p/ANiao5qoosfyI3uURXoB160BIBfnMmT3Wjh7DJGwxNzWHvEqAHaaM9SwO_LIGZxRHnYbD83QkH9eN8HX3jOZ0q9YfECsuwkBwztesJTjmeisurdyJOgBksCScN3NzA2kqiz3RFJ0IVx7gR3tg6l7_KWtW2kegVwe5UkM3-rG6SDSDhfmv4c36aztv0rnHTkyBK65VsIkJuXIE9hj4fOtdQJ0lr0MMMGvWw>.
> 
> What you need to do
> 
> No action is recommended if your app already uses Maps SDK for Android v18.2.0 and does not specify a renderer during the initialization process.
> 
> Updating to the latest renderer in the Maps SDK for Android may introduce a slight change to the performance and behavior of the maps in your app. Google does not expect this to cause any operational issues.
> 
> We recommend that developers of mission-critical apps test their application with the new renderer ahead of the automatic update (happening in March 2025), in order to limit risks of potential issues. You can do this by updating the dependencies <https://notifications.google.com/g/p/ANiao5qBoAN36GRHwRebxaRYycpHnxbwxIDE3vlsj8Q5dU1hBOrSW_qfb6NU6-lwPHyjV6RGa3l3WmsNGmvSFoP-4hQIIyfXuwecvb2HhZhq4rlpWiw7b166bg4uTuyn1RaVB_IT4qV62MeJX3Dg-5iRvFTs0nfg5wmKCQga6LGsXPoqyiVIfwRvN9TPtAd-FBle87lsm5ayR9Pzh04UMfnrKZ3-PeN8v8ioQNGY1H4ghjO60BfejHAcKY00y8wNXyi7sePqpr4vQUPRLPZDtBoYzDo2zOQPpA> for your app to the Maps SDK for Android version 18.2.0 or later, without specifying the Legacy renderer (Renderer.LEGACY) <https://notifications.google.com/g/p/ANiao5p_sMP-kXkk44kzDTYbQeeigaHx4l8GtYY7izDk-BHpsl2Gc7CHMw5fXHtl-OhNHMG5Jp_2MivSH448TtJ1vL3kmFw3ZAqFAKJdX4izbFu2JpH2l9EwEu-l_e50RPmVYnyIm6QYAxLvSE5-vyLUdFanfhOCMNfZllXoguSBNd8mYV2CBv7O3vRPlIpkEJZOEx9VzcLavsKC-BhDRg2OyXiJ910MRQMldTFk5YF8VcInD_IroI8bfrcwPRwNE2Let4aS54DxcAzDNA>.
