With the release of ArcGIS AppStudio version 5.1, we have improved our templates by adding exciting new features, enhancements, and bug fixes to help you create cross-platform native apps easier and faster. In this release we have added two brand new templates, introduced a new spatial query tool to the Map Viewer template, and updated all templates to fully support ArcGIS Runtime 100.11 and Qt framework 5.15.2.<\/p>\n

The Nearby template provides a native app experience to discover nearby map points, and includes filters to narrow your search by distance or feature category. Some use cases for this template include looking for restaurants, hotels, finding public community resources (parks, pools senior centers), discovering COVID-19 testing sites, or locating the closest field asset for inspection.<\/p>\n

The configuration experience for this template follows the same pattern as the AppStudio Attachment Viewer<\/a> app template. First, start by creating a Nearby Instant App web application<\/a> and then provide the unique web application ID within the template settings in AppStudio desktop. You can choose to configure more than one app ID or a group ID consisting of multiple Nearby web applications. You can then optionally add your own branding \u2013 icons, colors, and splash screen images \u2013 to make the Nearby native app your own.

AppStudio\u2019s Nearby template app works similar to the Nearby web application<\/a>. Currently, AppStudio supports the following properties as configured in the Nearby web application:<\/p>\n
