During the system update to Vaarainjärvi the Maps application is not updated, but seems to be held back. This causes confusion amongst the users:

  1. Maps disappeared during system update: https://together.jolla.com/question/72613/
  2. new features are not available because users are stuck with old version: https://together.jolla.com/question/72822/
  3. More native apps affected: https://together.jolla.com/question/60686/

There is the workaround of a manual update, or uninstall and then re-install the application. However, a lot of users will not notice and continue to work on the old version not benefiting from the latest features. Or is the update intentionally not promoted?

Another question relating to this: How many other applications are not updated automatically? I can't be asked to re-install everything manually. Please fix

Can confirm the issue, Maps need manual intervention.

Maps have not been installed on my jolla prior to 1.1.1.27. After updating to 1.1.1.27 I can't install Maps. Several other people complain the same issue in comments to Maps app in store.

Can confirm this as well, maps showed up in phone app list but not in the store's "my apps". Manual update possible through store by finding the app. After the update, maps are restored also in My apps page.
