How to switch from Google Maps API to OpenStreetMap?

Switching from Google Maps Platform to MapTiler Cloud, which is an OSM tiles provider, is very easy and straightforward. You can significantly cut costs: compare prices and see how much you can save.

Static maps

For static maps, you can either use a Visual generator or API. Both methods are described here.

Dynamic maps with JavaScript

MapTiler supports standard JavaScript libraries including MapLibre GL JS, Leaflet, and OpenLayers. In the administration, select any map by clicking on it, and in the new window, you will see a code snippet for each library.

Pro tip: learn how to create an interactive map using Leaflet with our YouTube tutorial series.

Maps on mobile devices

To start using MapTiler in your mobile app, you have to switch your mobile SDK. MapTiler supports multiple mobile SDKs, however, we recommend using MapLibre Mobile SDK or MapTiler Mobile if you want to use prepared source code (and combine the best of Mapbox SDK and Google Maps SDK, e.g. for Satellite map as a background).
