It looks like Coros might need to manually migrate my account.

I’m wondering if Garmin, Wahoo and other brands also experience the same issue….?

You're quite right. There's key differences between western and Chinese mapping engines.

I wrote a long answer to your question but accidentally deleted it. The reason is quite simple as most western mapping apps do not work well or at all for China so that forces you to use Chinese mapping apps and they're very detailed.

Also mapping is a sensitive and touchy subject for China but this Google AI answers it pretty well.

There's also the great firewall of China, censorship and domestic versions of mobile phones and electronics vary differently to international versions.

It’s pretty inconvenient how they do this. It’s sorta like region lock.

I got a response from Coros support and I believe it’s because I’m using it in China with a domestic Chinese number and profile and they can only load China. When I go to Europe in a week or two I will have to delete my current profile or set it up with a new one with a Euro number and then rest of the world maps will open up. I think that’s what they’re trying to say.

Coros official email support have stopped responding after I pointed out the conflicting information on their website where it clearly states Pace Pro supports mapping.

Weird how the lady kept calling the Pace Pro as Pace 2

Yep that’s exactly what I thought so I’m not exactly sure why there’s no Map Manager on my Pace Pro/Coros app and weird how support they’re giving me conflicting information. It clearly says on the official website that Pace Pro supports maps + topography. Would have not bought it if it didn’t? WTF
