If your custom-designed map was created facing east, south, or any direction other than north, users previously had to rotate their view to match. With the new Custom Map Heading option, maps can now open to any chosen direction, matching your artwork and eliminating confusion right from the start. This is especially helpful for hybrid overlays and complex layouts where “north” isn’t the most natural view.
Availability: Platinum+ packages for apps created after September 16, 2025
With Linked Facility Maps, clicking on a building or area can open a dedicated map of that facility (when a detail map exists). It’s ideal for large fairgrounds, campuses, or venues that want to provide detailed interior layouts—helping visitors move seamlessly between the big picture and the details.

Our recently introduced Map Lists now let users view all map locations alphabetically or by distance, even when filters are applied. This gives visitors an easier way to find what they’re looking for, no matter how big your map gets. Read more in last month’s post: https://grandstandapps.com/blog/map-lists
These updates keep maps clear, connected, and consistent—just one more way Grandstand helps your visitors get where they want to go.
