Content overview

Overview

In the lite mode, the Map SDK allows your app to show the static map image of a specified location at a specified zoom level to a user. The lite mode supports only static image–based functions. It is useful when the user wants to show multiple maps on one screen, or share their location using social apps such as WeChat Moments.

The following table lists the functions supported by the Map SDK in lite mode.
