Add a list of markers - easily load multiple markers from your database with a single action.
Remove all markers - clear the map instantly whenever you need to refresh or reload data.
These improvements make managing large sets of map points faster, smoother and more flexible - perfect for apps dealing with dynamic, data-driven maps.
We are glad to hear that you like our plugin for mobile devices.
At the moment, the feature you mention is not available in the plugin, but your idea sounds great. We have already sent this idea to the development team and they will check if they can add this feature in the next plugin update.
As soon as we have a response from them, we will be sure to let you know.
At the moment, we canât add background location tracking functionality to the Mapbox for Mobile plugin. This is due to the lack of support for the expo-task-manager library, which is required to handle background location updates.
Because of this limitation, tracking the userâs location while the app is running in the background is currently not possible.
Weâll be monitoring any changes that could make this feature available in the future.
We will try to add this feature to the mobile version as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and for using our products.
Please feel free to reach us again when you need some help or assistance. It will be a pleasure to cooperate.

This plugin looks awesome and right now i am using it to create a map based app but there are few features missing for me.
Is there a way to add a pin by pressing and holding on a specific area on the map?
can the plugin have a âbubbleâ feature? for example, when i press an existing pin on the map once it will show a small bubble or a dialog box where you can see dynamic data. it will float above the pin while moving the map.
Can we use the map to make a route so i can use it like Waze or google Maps route?
Can we see other app users live location on the map?
Thanks for your questions and for sharing how youâre using the plugin. Based on the current documentation for the Mapbox Maps for Bubble Mobile plugin, Iâll clarify whatâs available today and what may come in the future.
Right now, the plugin doesnât support adding a pin by long-pressing on the map, and it doesnât provide built-in bubble or tooltip popups that appear when a marker is tapped. Markers can be added and updated through workflows, but UI overlays tied to marker interactions arenât part of the current feature set. Routing isnât included either â the plugin can display a map and markers you define, but it does not generate paths or directions like Google Maps or Waze.
Live user locations can be shown as long as your app supplies updated coordinates for each user. The plugin will display whatever marker data you feed into it. There is a geolocation control that allows tracking the current userâs live location on the map, but the plugin doesnât include a built-in method to automatically save or persist those live updates; that part would need to be handled through your Bubble workflows.
Itâs also worth mentioning that both this plugin and the Bubble mobile environment are still very new. More features will continue to arrive over time, and your suggestions align well with what many users would find valuable. As the ecosystem evolves, additional capabilities â potentially even in a future âProâ version â may become available.
If you have more ideas or questions, feel free to share them anytime. Your feedback genuinely helps us prioritize improvements.
Thank you so much for your willingness to help with new feature ideas for the plugin. We really appreciate your enthusiasm and support for the project.
Just so you know, the more detailed your suggestions areâfor example, if you can share specific use cases, example workflows, screenshots, or links to similar toolsâthe more likely it is that your request will make it to the top of our development backlog. While we do collect all feature requests and keep them in our internal list, the ones that come with detailed explanations and examples are always easier for the team to understand, prioritize, and implement.
By the way, if thereâs a feature that youâve seen in our web version of the MapBox plugin and you think it would be especially useful to have in the mobile version right now, please mention that as well. Highlighting those features helps us identify whatâs most needed and can increase the likelihood of a more timely implementation.
If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them any time. Weâll be sure to review and consider each one carefully. Thanks again for your involvement and for helping us make the MapBox plugin even better!
Thank you for reaching out! Here are the answers regarding the features you mentioned for the Mapbox Maps for Bubble Mobile plugin:
⢠Tap the markers and trigger some workflow: Yes, this is available. The plugin has an event for when a marker is clicked (e.g., A Mapbox Mobile - Marker is clicked). You can use this event to trigger workflows, such as opening a popup, and use the pluginâs exposed states to display the specific info for the clicked marker.
⢠Hide the Mapbox logo: No, this is not supported. According to Mapboxâs Terms of Service, the Mapbox logo and attribution text must remain visible on the map at all times. Removing or hiding it is a violation of their usage terms.
⢠Tap the map to add a marker: No, this functionality is not currently available, but you can use the âAdd markerâ action to add one based on latitude/longitude inputs.
This is exactly what Bubble native apps have been missing! Mapbox is a great choice for mobile mapping â the custom marker support and flexible styling options are key for building polished location-based experiences. Is there support for clustering markers when there are many points on the map?
At the moment, the Mapbox Mobile plugin does not offer clustering support. However, development of the plugin is ongoing, and we are gradually adding the same functionalities available in the web version.
We have escalated this issue to our development team to help prioritize clustering functionality. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a timeline for its implementation, but we will make sure to follow up as soon as an update is available.
Quick update since your question about marker clustering â we went ahead and added/improved this in the plugin and itâs now live.
Marker clustering is now supported
As of the latest release, the plugin supports clustering markers when you have many points on the map. This helps performance and keeps the map readable by grouping nearby points into clusters and showing the count inside each cluster.
Version
This was released in plugin version v1.13.0.
How to get the update (Bubble)
Open your Bubble app.
Go to Plugins (left sidebar).
Find the plugin in your installed plugins list.
Click into the plugin details and update to the latest version (v1.13.0).
If Bubble shows an âUpdateâ button/banner, click that.
If not, try refreshing the editor and checking again. After updating
Once updated to v1.13.0, you should see the clustering feature/options available in the element settings (or the relevant map configuration).
If you already have many markers/points, clustering should start working once enabled/configured for your data source.
Iâm sorry to hear youâve had a frustrating experience with the latest update, but thank you for bringing this to our attention. Itâs very helpful to know that downgrading to version 1.12.0 resolved the issue for you, as it suggests a regression in the 1.13.0 update regarding marker functionality.
To help us investigate this quickly, I need a bit more information regarding your setup.
Troubleshooting Steps
Please provide the following details so we can replicate the environment where the âdrag markerâ and âcustom imageâ features are failing:
Console Logs: Open your browserâs developer tools (F12), go to the Console tab, and check for any red error messages when you try to drag a marker or load a custom image. Send us a screenshot of any errors you see.
Workflow & Element Settings: Provide screenshots of your Mapbox Maps element settings in the Bubble editor and the specific workflows youâre using to trigger these markers.
Device & Environment: Since this is the mobile-specific plugin, please let us know which device (iOS/Android) and browser youâre testing on. Also, confirm your current Bubble version.
Verification
I recommend checking our official Demo Editor to see if the same behavior occurs there. This helps us determine if the issue is universal to the version or specific to certain app configurations.
Key Features:
Add a list of markers - easily load multiple markers from your database with a single action.
Remove all markers - clear the map instantly whenever you need to refresh or reload data.
