Follow the last map

Set General appearance to Zoomies mode to make the app follow the last map you opened.

Choose map preview appearance

In Settings, set Map previews to Each map's theme to show saved map themes on the dashboard.

Choose Zoomies mode to display every preview in the app's current appearance. This does not change saved map themes.

Set road line colours

Open Settings in a map and find Default road colour under Map roads. It applies to roads and paths without their own colour.

Use hand-drawn outlines

In Settings, find Features and enable Rough Rendering for hand-drawn hex outlines. Turn it off to return to regular outlines.
