Headers help drivers understand which app and what part of the app they're using. They need to be brief and easy to read at a glance while on the road.
Headers must include at least one of the following: text, app icon, or back button.
Headers can include:
- Icon or image (optional), such as app icon
- Text (limited to one line – longer text is truncated), typically the title of the screen
- Refresh button (only on Place List templates )
- Back button (optional)
This example shows different types of headers you can create.

Template support
You can use a header in all templates except the Navigation template. In map-based templates, the header appears in the card. Otherwise, it incorporates the optional action strip.
