## Deprecations

This release is still based on the same software stack as 2021's v0.9.5, and so it stills supports old Windows, macOS and Android devices. The next releases must move to a modernized software stack and will drop support for old platforms which already lost vendor support.

## Sadly missing

This release doesn't include new (current) IOF symbol sets.

## Package options

Continuous integration build [3333](https://dev.azure.com/OpenOrienteering/Mapper/_build/results?buildId=3333), based on Superbuild [20250510](https://github.com/OpenOrienteering/superbuild/releases/tag/v20250510).

* Windows (7 and up): You can choose between an installer (`*.exe`) and a portable archive (`*.zip`).
For most modern Windows installations, you should choose the **x64** packages.
* macOS (10.12 and up): You may need to run the app via Ctrl+Click the first time, in order to allow it to run despite coming from an "unknown source".
* Android (4.1 and up): For new installations on modern devices, you should choose the **arm64-v8a** package.
The armeabi-v7a package should work for most older devices.
Note that you will have to allow installation "from unknown sources".
Android packages are also available from the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repository.

Linux packages for major distribution continue to be provided [via OBS](https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3Adg0yt&package=openorienteering-mapper). To automatically install dependencies (and new versions!), choose "add repository and install manually", instead of "grab binary packages directly".
