🔙 Esri Wayback imagery 
The world never stops changing! We added a new background layer called "Esri Wayback" to let you view historical releases of the Esri World Imagery. This background source also has a date picker to help you choose from dates likely to show changes in the current map view. Open the Background pane to try it out!

🔄 Map Rotation
Take Rapid for a spin! Now you can rotate the map to make your editing easier (and avoid straining your neck!). Rapid supports rotating with ‘option’ + click-drag or ‘shift’ + left/right arrows, just like other maps you’ve used before. A new bearing control displays a north arrow, and you can click it to reset the map back to North-up. 3/6

✅ MapRoulette Integration
You can now complete MapRoulette tasks without ever leaving Rapid. View active MapRoulette tasks in the current map view, or filter the results by challenge id. After making your edits, select the task and click "I fixed it!", "Can't Complete", "Already Fixed", and "Not an Issue". When you save your edits, your changeset will automatically include a description about any MapRoulette tasks that you've completed.

🎨 GeoScribbles
GeoScribble is a new service that allows mappers to take field notes while surveying with the EveryDoorOSM mobile app. Your sketches and notes will be waiting for you when you get back to your computer and open Rapid.
