How do I show multiple things on Google Maps?

Displaying Multiple Locations on Google Maps

Google Maps is an invaluable tool for navigating and discovering locations around the world. It can be particularly useful when you want to plan a trip or visualize multiple locations simultaneously. Here’s a simple guide on how to show multiple things on Google Maps:

Step 1: Access Your Places

Begin by opening the Google Maps app on your device. Tap the menu icon in the top-left corner and select “Your Places.”

Step 2: Create a New Map

In the “Your Places” section, tap the “Maps” tab and select “Create Map.” This will open a new blank map.

Step 3: Add Locations

To add locations to your map, simply type their names or addresses into the search bar at the top of the screen. As you type, Google Maps will suggest matching locations. Select the location you want to add.

Step 4: Customize Your Map

Once you have added all the desired locations, you can customize your map further. You can:

• Change the map style: Tap the “Base map” icon in the bottom-left corner to choose from different map styles, such as “Satellite” or “Terrain.”
• Add labels: Tap on a location and select “Label” to add a custom label.
• Color-code locations: Tap on a location and select “Color” to choose a different color for its icon.
• Add directions: Select two or more locations and tap “Directions” to generate directions between them.

Step 5: Save Your Map

When you’re finished customizing your map, tap the “Save” button in the top-right corner. You can choose to save the map publicly or privately. Public maps can be shared with others, while private maps are accessible only to you.

Additional Tips:

• You can add up to 1000 locations to a single map.
• You can create multiple maps and organize them into folders.
• Use the “Search this map” feature to quickly find specific locations on your map.
• Share your maps with others via email, social media, or a link.
