 # Changelog MapLibre Native for Android
 
+## 11.8.0
+
+> [!NOTE]  
+> We are now releasing OpenGL ES and Vulkan variants of MapLibre Android. See the [11.7.0 release notes](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native/releases/tag/android-v11.7.0) for details.
+
+### ✨ Features and improvements
+
+- Add PMTiles support ([#2882](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native/pull/2882)).
+- Consolidate UBOs ([#3089](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native/pull/3089)).
+
+We have a new feature in the C++ Core to constrain the screen (instead of the center of the camera) to some bounds ([#2475](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native/pull/2475)). This functionality still has to be exposed to Android. If you are interested in implementing this, see [this issue](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native/issues/3128).

+# PMTiles
+
+Starting MapLibre Android 11.7.0, using [PMTiles](https://docs.protomaps.com/pmtiles/) as a data source is supported. You can prefix your vector tile source with `pmtiles://` to load a PMTiles file. The rest of the URL continue with be `https://` to load a remote PMTiles file, `asset://` to load an asset or `file://` to load a local PMTiles file.
+
+Oliver Wipfli has made a style available that combines a [Protomaps]() basemap togehter with Foursquare's POI dataset. It is available in the [wipfli/foursquare-os-places-pmtiles](https://github.com/wipfli/foursquare-os-places-pmtiles) repository on GitHub. The style to use is
+
+```
+https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wipfli/foursquare-os-places-pmtiles/refs/heads/main/style.json
+```
+
+The neat thing about this style is that it only uses PMTiles vector sources. PMTiles can be hosted with a relatively simple file server (or file hosting service) instead of a more complex specialized tile server.
