Very exciting to see Mapbox plugin on native mobile!

Can it track the users location in the background?

Hey @greg18 ,
Thank you for contacting us.

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.

Have a great start to your work week!

Best Regards,
Zeroqode Support Team

Hey @greg18 ,
Thank you for your patience.

At the moment, we can’t 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 user’s location while the app is running in the background is currently not possible.

We’ll be monitoring any changes that could make this feature available in the future.

Have a nice day!

Best Regards,
Zeroqode Support Team

Thanks for the update. Until native bubble apps are able to track location in background, I dont have a reason to upgrade my bubble app to native.

Hello!

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.

  1. Is there a way to add a pin by pressing and holding on a specific area on the map?
  2. can the plugin have a “bubble” 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.
  3. Can we use the map to make a route so i can use it like Waze or google Maps route?
  4. Can we see other app users live location on the map?

Thanks and regards.

Hi @yuri.lapigin ,

Thanks for your questions and for sharing how you’re using the plugin. Based on the current documentation for the Mapbox Maps for Bubble Mobile plugin, I’ll clarify what’s available today and what may come in the future.

Right now, the plugin doesn’t support adding a pin by long-pressing on the map, and it doesn’t 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 aren’t part of the current feature set. Routing isn’t included either — 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 user’s live location on the map, but the plugin doesn’t include a built-in method to automatically save or persist those live updates; that part would need to be handled through your Bubble workflows.

It’s 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 — potentially even in a future “Pro” version — 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 for your reply.

I am aware of Bubble’s native mobile development Beta version, i hope they will make a stable final version soon.

I will be more than happy to help with new features ideas for your plugin, MapBox is a very powerful tool.

Hello @yuri.lapigin ,

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 are—for example, if you can share specific use cases, example workflows, screenshots, or links to similar tools—the 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 there’s a feature that you’ve 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 what’s 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. We’ll be sure to review and consider each one carefully. Thanks again for your involvement and for helping us make the MapBox plugin even better!
