1. How to on/off maps? I loaded few of them but see onyl TOPO Europ Citi Navigator, and Base map.
2. How I can use Custom Maps, like scaned maps in KMZ, which works great on Epix Gen 2.

Our engineers have released the BETA software version 11.81. This will include a change allow 3rd party and downloaded maps to be toggled on or off. If you are having trouble…
You can use them just fine, however the issue is that you currently can't enable/disable individual maps (as you can on the Fenix 7, Epix Gen 2 and earlier models). This is really only an issue if you…
I am also wondering about this.
It might well be that many of the problems don't reach the developers because the moderators here don't understand them and ask for sense less pictures and videos of all…
i have the same question and problem , in F6 also F7 i just copied IMG ( map) file to GARMIN folder and selected preferred map. now with F8x I'm not able select any map at all!! this is very disappointing…
Yes there is, but ONLY is you have a third party OSM map on the Fenix 8, same as there is NO TopoActive layer option if you have REMOVED the TopoActive maps... I know this as I have my own third party OSM map on mine, running 11.60.
I didn't know that you create your own OSM maps as well. I'll have to look into those once I get the Fenix 8! Where's the proper place to talk about those?
via my FaceBook page/group, via my websites, etc. Just Google Talkytoaster and you will find plenty of links to my sites. I'm also on most social media sites.
I was told by one of Polish dealer that you have to change theirs map name to CAPITAL LETTERS: like TOPOMAP.img from the small ones in order to see the map choice in menu. Other customs maps deosnt work as well. Tried CAPITAL name but still no option.
Hello, I am sorry to hear you are having trouble with selecting which mapping is enabled. For this, I would like to collect some specific details about this. For this, I am going to reach out to you via Private Message.
You don't need specific details. Just try to add any 3rd party map. I have the same problem in Enduro 3. Earlier I had Fenix 7 Pro and there was no problem.

It might well be that many of the problems don't reach the developers because the moderators here don't understand them and ask for sense less pictures and videos of all those issues. That would definitely not be necessary if they ever had tried on their own and on a real watch.

Ok i put a custom map in the custom map folder and I cannot see it anywhere. When I go to this country this layer will show auto away
Custom maps are KMZ files, IMG files go in the GARMIN folder.
