The map is where you spend most of your time in Wildflyer. It shows weather conditions, active incidents, and your saved locations — all in one view.
Choose a map style
Section titled “Choose a map style”Press S (or click the style button, top-right) to switch between four backgrounds:
| Style | Best for |
|---|---|
| Streets | Road detail and urban context |
| Outdoor | Terrain, elevation, and topography |
| Satellite | Aerial imagery of the landscape |
| Dataviz | Neutral background that makes weather data stand out |
The map automatically adjusts to your light or dark theme.
