How to opt-out (until August 2018)

To opt-out of the new base map, use version 3.31 of the Maps JavaScript API until August 2018. To do this, update the script tag that loads the API, to use version 3.31:

&v=3.31&

Your script tag should now look similar to the following example:

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&v=3.31>
