Apple Map Snapshot API broken??
I have been using the following python library to generate apple map snapshots. has worked fine until about ~12 hours ago - now all I'm getting is "bad request" for any snapshot with overlays. if it's just a snapshot with a defined center and no polyline overlays, it still works. perhaps something has changed with the api's way of parsing percent encoded parameters? it's super irritating that there's no changelog or source code to view. what the heck??? https://pypi.org/project/mapsnap/

Apple maps trail / local path only becomes visible on very close zoom
I'm using apple maps to build a feature so users can create and save running/cycling/hiking routes. Currently the map only shows trails and similar local paths after zooming in to what is basically an extreme level. I want the trails and local paths to be more visible on a further, broader level of zoom. APPLE MAPS JS EX: https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/Screenshot_2024-10-23_at_10.52.17AM.png https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/Screenshot_2024-10-23_at_10.52.04AM.png APPLE MAPS iOS EX: https://trkbucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/shoe_images/IMG_9DDF5C9A320D-1.jpeg Also strange that on iOS the path is visible while more zoomed out whereas JS does not. Please advise how to show these map items at a broader zoom.

Map Snapshot - Max number of Overlays, longest allowed query?
Hello, Playing around with the MapJs Snapshot API. How many individual Overlays can it support? The docs say max for Images is 10 but not listing number of Overlays/Annotations it can support. Trying to generate a gradient path like so: But it seems the Apple Snapshot api only allows for 10 unique Overlay objects, is that true? Also, what's the max size of a Snapshot query url? Seems to stop working around 5,000 characters but Google allows for 8000+
