Bugs in iOS regarding Marker and LineString components

App Inventor for iOS

Hi there,

I want to develop an app where you can see different vehicles on the map, but I am facing some bugs on my iOS device. Dear AppInventor Team, please fix the bugs ASAP. Thanks!

BUGS ARE IN THE COMMENTS, BECAUSE I COULDN'T ADD MORE THAN 2 MEDIA FILES HERE.

I would like to know when the build servers will be ready for iOS and when the Navigation component will be published for iOS.

Good work!

Bug # 1 - Marker's "Image Asset" property doesn't work for SVG files on iOS

I want to use an image for a marker, which doesn't have background. I tried .PNG, but it isn't transparent, it has a white background. Next, I tried an .SVG file, which seemed to be working on Android, but on iOS, it doesn't show up.
