Installation

A newer version of the Navigation SDK is available
This page uses v1.6.2 of the Mapbox Navigation SDK. A newer version of the SDK is available. Learn about the latest version, v2.20.2, in the Navigation SDK documentation.

You'll need to add the Navigation SDK or the Navigation UI SDK as a dependency before developing your project.

Migrating from the current Navigation SDK
Read Mapbox's migration guide on GitHub if your project is using the current stable "legacy" Mapbox Navigation SDK for Android and you want to transition it to the latest version of the SDK.
Including the Maps SDK
The core Navigation SDK doesn't include the Mapbox Maps SDK for Android, so if you're planning to display navigation information on top of a map, you'll need to add the Mapbox Maps SDK as a dependency before developing your project. Read the Maps SDK installation docs to get started.

Configure credentials

Before installing the SDK, you will need to gather the appropriate credentials.

The SDK requires two pieces of sensitive information from your Mapbox account (or sign up to create one):

  • A public access token: From your account's tokens page, you can either copy your default public token or click the Create a token button to create a new public token.
  • A secret access token with the Downloads:Read scope.
    1. From your account's tokens page, click the Create a token button.
    2. From the token creation page, give your token a name and make sure the box next to the Downloads:Read scope is checked.
    3. Click the Create token button at the bottom of the page to create your token.
    4. The token you've created is a secret token, which means you will only have one opportunity to copy it somewhere secure.

You should not expose these access tokens in publicly-accessible source code where unauthorized users might find them. Instead, you should store them somewhere safe on your computer and take advantage of Gradle properties to make sure they're only added when your app is compiled (see next section).

Configure your secret token

To avoid exposing your secret token, add it as an environment variable:

  1. Find or create a gradle.properties file in your Gradle user home folder. The folder is located at «USER_HOME»/.gradle. Once you have found or created the file, its path should be «USER_HOME»/.gradle/gradle.properties. More details about Gradle properties in the official Gradle documentation.
  2. Add your secret token your gradle.properties file:
MAPBOX_DOWNLOADS_TOKEN=YOUR_SECRET_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN

Configure your public token

The preferred way to provide your public token to Mapbox SDK is by adding it as an Android string resource.

To do so create a new string resource file in your app module (for example app/src/main/res/values/developer-config.xml) with your public Mapbox API token:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
<string name="mapbox_access_token" translatable="false" tools:ignore="UnusedResources">YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN</string>
</resources>

If you ever need to rotate YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN, you will need to update the token value in your xml file.

Configure permissions

If you plan to display the user's location on the map or get the user's location information you will need to add the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission in your application's AndroidManifest.xml. You also need to add ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permissions if you need access to precise location. You can check whether the user has granted location permission and request permissions if the user hasn't granted them yet using the PermissionsManager.

<manifest ... >
<!-- Always include this permission -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

<!-- Include only if your app benefits from precise location access. -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
</manifest>
GUIDE
Access token best practices

Learn how to keep access tokens private in mobile apps.

Handle location permissions
The Navigation SDK makes use of the Android manifest merge feature. The Navigation SDK's manifest file already has both the course and fine location permission lines, which means you don't have to declare any location permissions inside your project's manifest file or in some other way.If your project targets Android API 23 or higher, make sure to check the user location permission in runtime using the Mapbox Core Library for Android's PermissionsManager interface.

Add the dependency

Mapbox provides the Navigation SDK via Maven.

To add the Mapbox Navigation SDK as a dependency, you will need to configure your build to download the Navigation SDK from Mapbox directly. This requires a valid username and password.

  1. Open your project in Android Studio.

  2. Open up your module-level build.gradle file.

  3. The Navigation SDK uses Java 8 features. To enable Java 8 in your project, add the following compileOptions.

    android {
        compileOptions {
            sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
            targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        }
        // Add the block below if you're using Kotlin
        kotlinOptions {
        	jvmTarget = "1.8"
    	}
        ...
    }
    
  4. Make sure that your project's minSdkVersion is at API 21 or higher.

    android {
        ...
        defaultConfig {
            minSdkVersion 21
        }
    }
    
  5. Add the dependency under dependencies. There are two options:

    • Option 1: To use the Navigation SDK with pre-built UI components, add the navigation:ui dependency. This will also include navigation:core automatically.

      dependencies {
        implementation "com.mapbox.navigation:ui:1.6.2"
      }
      
    • Option 2: To use the Navigation SDK without pre-built UI components, add the navigation:core dependency.

      dependencies {
        implementation "com.mapbox.navigation:core:1.6.2"
      }
      
  6. Open up your project-level build.gradle file. Declare the Mapbox Downloads API's releases/maven endpoint in the repositories block. To download the Navigation SDK dependency, you must authenticate your request with a valid username and password. In the previous section, you added the password to a gradle.properties file in your Gradle user home folder. The username field should always be "mapbox". It should not be your personal username used to create the secret token.

    allprojects {
        repositories {
            maven {
                url 'https://api.mapbox.com/downloads/v2/releases/maven'
                authentication {
                    basic(BasicAuthentication)
                }
                credentials {
                	// Do not change the username below.
                	// This should always be `mapbox` (not your username).
                    username = "mapbox"
                    // Use the secret token you stored in gradle.properties as the password
                    password = project.properties['MAPBOX_DOWNLOADS_TOKEN'] ?: ""
                }
            }
        }
    }
    
  7. If your project declares dependencyResolutionManagement in settings.gradle, and you have added the Mapbox Maven repository reference to the top-level build.gradle file, you need to remove the repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS) flag.

  8. Because you've edited your Gradle files, Android Studio will ask you whether you want to sync the Gradle files. You can sync now.

Using nightly builds and beta versions
You can also use a SNAPSHOT version of the Navigation SDK if you want access to bug fixes or features that have not been packaged in an official release yet. Find more information about how to do this inside the Navigation SDK's GitHub repository.
Method limit
If you've added the Navigation SDK (Core/UI or both), finished all the installation steps above, and see an Android Studio error saying that you've reached maximum method count, try enabling Multidex following the official Android guides to using multidex and optimizing your code.

Display a navigation UI

If you are using the Navigation UI SDK, use NavigationView to simulate your first navigation experience using our drop-in UI. In the example below you will:

  • Add NavigationView to your project's XML layout file.
  • Simulate a fetched DirectionsRoute.
  • Retrieve a MapboxNavigation object to gain direct access to the navigation session.

Open the activity’s XML layout file and add the following view:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

<com.mapbox.navigation.ui.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/navigationView"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

Create a new Activity or open an existing Activity and add the code below:

Run the application and you will see a simulated navigation experience along a route.

Create a MapboxNavigation object

If you are using the core Navigation SDK, you will need to create a MapboxNavigation object to control the navigation session without a NavigationView. MapboxNavigation is used to request routes, register various Navigation SDK observers, and make other navigation-related customization's.

val navigationOptions = MapboxNavigation
.defaultNavigationOptionsBuilder(context, accessToken)
.locationEngine(customLocationEngine)
.build()
val mapboxNavigation = MapboxNavigationProvider.create(navigationOptions)

Create and use only one instance of MapboxNavigation.

The MapboxNavigationProvider ensures you will only have one MapboxNavigation instance in your application. Using this, you can access MapboxNavigation anywhere in your application using the retrieve() function.

class MyRouteProgressObserver : RouteProgressObserver {
fun start() {
if (MapboxNavigationProvider.isCreated()) {
MapboxNavigationProvider.retrieve().registerRouteProgressObserver(this)
}
}

fun stop() {
if (MapboxNavigationProvider.isCreated()) {
MapboxNavigationProvider.retrieve().unregisterRouteProgressObserver(this)
}
}

override fun onRouteProgressChanged(routeProgress: RouteProgress) {
// My route progress logic
}
}
