Why is "API KEY REQUIRED" shown on the map and how do I get rid of it?

[Michael Schollmeyer]

Which version of the app are you using?

On which map do you see this? If it's Portable Maps, which basemap have you selected?

What is the status of fixing Thunderforest's "API Key Required" watermark? 

Please see https://www.thunderforest.com/docs/apikeys/

So I have my API key, how do I use it in the app?

[Michael Schollmeyer]

This is not how API keys work. If I would add a feature for you to add your own key, then the map server will ban the entire app. Apparently, the server changed the previously free policy and wants to charge for using it.
