Map View is the view that displays Points of Interests (POI’s) on a base map.

Since {{UBIK}} Android 2.5.0, Open Street Maps (OSM) is used instead of Google Maps; hence, no Google Play Services are required anymore ({{Version/AndroidSince|2.5.0}}).

Up to Version 2.5.0 {{UBIK}} integrates [https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/ Google Maps] which requires [https://developers.google.com/android/guides/overview Google Play Services]. If the latter is not available on a device, {{UBIK}} can still be installed and most of its features will still function. However, the map view will not be accessible and a notification will be shown in that case ({{Version/AndroidSince|2.4.5}}).
