I just downloaded Google Maps and DJI Vision onto my iPad Mini. When I start the DJI program and pull up the satellite map, it's an older map than the one on Google Maps. I've cleared the history and the cache in Google Maps with no effect. Can anyone tell me how to get the current map on Google Maps to show in the DJI program?

Is there a way to clear the map cache in the DJI Vision app?

Sadly the iOS version of the DJI Vision app uses the Apple maps and not Google maps. There have been many feature requests form users to add an option to choose Google maps. The Apple maps are almost completely useless in my area as they only show a bunch of clouds.

Shameless plug but the app I'm working on uses Google maps.

The DJI Vision app for Android also uses Google maps.  

Nice work on your app by the way.

I did not know that as I thought I've seen reports of old maps in the Vision app but thanks for correcting me!

Thanks for supporting my app as well!

That's just great. Not! Seems as though Apple is using much older maps than Google. Thanks for all the replies.

Heh. Plug away! Your app is WORTH IT!
But this guy's talking iOS and I thought you're only doing Android?

You are correct; my app is Android only but Android devices are quite cheap and I've heard of at least a few that have switched to Android and purchased cheap devices just to have access to some of the features so I figure why not mention it even if it's to an iOS user today (maybe they'll be an Android user tomorrow) ;)

Yep! I've known plenty of iOS users who finally get grown up devices. ;-)

(NOTE the wink, people!  It's there because it's a joke!  If you can't take the joke, you're probably an iOS user. )
