This is some text inside of a div block.

A consolidated drawer now houses all Aeronautical Map toggles and settings, optimizing space when you aren’t using it. Tap the new button in the lower-left corner of the Maps view with the Aeronautical Map layer enabled to open the drawer and toggle map elements like airports, airspace, waypoints, and more, or tap the ellipses button at the very bottom to access Aeronautical Map Settings.

Below the toggles are new Aeronautical Modes for IFR High, IFR Low, and VFR, which you can select to quickly change altitude-based map elements like waypoints, navaids, airways, ATC boundaries, and VFR map elements.

Release notes

A consolidated drawer now houses all Aeronautical Map toggles and settings, optimizing space when you aren’t using it.
Tap the new button in the lower-left corner of the Maps view with the Aeronautical Map layer enabled to open the drawer and toggle map elements like airports, airspace, waypoints, airways, terrain, and more, or tap the ellipses button at the very bottom to access Aeronautical Map Settings.
Below the toggles are new Aeronautical Modes for IFR High, IFR Low, and VFR, which you can select to quickly change altitude-based map elements like waypoints, navaids, airways, ATC boundaries, and VFR map elements.
Any changes you make to the quick toggles or settings only apply to the currently selected Aeronautical Mode, so you can configure each mode with separate toggle selections and settings and change all of them at once just by switching modes.
The Aeronautical Map Drawer will automatically close after a period of inactivity - 10 seconds by default. You can increase or decrease this time using the “Auto-Dismiss After” setting at the top of the Aeronautical Map Settings menu. You can also tap anywhere on the map to close the drawer.
