Regions, subregions, and most landmarks are added onto the map automatically. However, some landmarks must be visited before they are added to the map. Additionally, Sheikah Towers and shrines must be activated before they will appear on the map. Once they have been activated, Link may then use the Sheikah Slate to travel to that tower or shrine. Settlements, villages, and [[Stable]]s must also be visited before their locations will be added to the map. Once Link has registered a [[Horse (Breath of the Wild)|Horse]] at a stable, he may also use the map to track the location of any horse he is traveling with. Additionally, the locations of any discovered [[Korok]]s are marked on the map for reference. | Regions, subregions, and most landmarks are added onto the map automatically.

Link also has the ability to set stamps and pins on the map. Stamps are markers visible only when looking at the map. There are nine different designs to choose from, and they can be used to indicate the location of enemies, weapons, cook pots, potential Korok locations, or anything else of note to be remembered. Up to 100 stamps may be placed on the map. Pins function similarly to stamps, but are also visible to Link when he views the landscape through the slate's scope. Pins are ideal for marking travel destinations as they help provide directional guidance for Link without use of the map. Unlike stamps, only five pins are available to use. | Albeit the map initially shows the regional limits between the Sheikah Tower regions when it's blank, these limits disappear once the regions are populated into the map's data. Link also has the ability to set stamps and pins on the map. Stamps are markers visible only when looking at the map, and don't generate a beacon to follow like pins do.

Pins are ideal for marking travel destinations as they help provide directional guidance for Link without use of the map. Unlike stamps, only five pins are available to use. Pins disappear if removed, also being automatically removed when Link walks over them, as the Sheikah Slate assumes that Link has arrived to said destination. | ||
With the [[Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass|Expansion Pass]], [[Hero's Path Mode]] was added to the map. Turning on this mode shows the path of Link's past travels. | With the [[Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass|Expansion Pass]], [[Hero's Path Mode]] was added to the map.
