Hello Google Maps Platform customer,

According to the Mobile OS version support policy, we are freezing support for iOS 16 in an upcoming major version of Maps, Places, and Navigation SDKs for iOS.

Starting Q2 2026, a new major version of our Maps, Places, and Navigation SDKs for iOS will no longer support devices running iOS 16.

We’ve provided additional information below to guide you through this change.

What you need to know
Starting Q2 2026, all newly released versions of Maps, Places, and Navigation for iOS will only support iOS 17 or later. The earlier SDK versions will continue supporting iOS 16. If your dependencies do not specify a version number, your Integrated Development Environment (IDE) will load the newest SDK version and new builds of your app will not support iOS 16.

What you need to do
You are required to specify a version of the Maps, Places, and Navigation SDKs for iOS in your application's build dependencies to control when you raise the minimum supported OS for newer versions of your app.

Our records show that the projects listed in the table below are used on devices running iOS 16. To ensure continued support, update your SDK dependencies in the next release before Q2 2026.

How can we fix this ?
