How have you used Google My Maps in the past? Or are you just now discovering it's features? Let me know 💬
yeah I’m gonna try to print out maps of my city and of some national parks.
I've used Google My Maps before!!!!
I'm just starting, your tutorial is good. But the app needs work.
Hi, do you know if you can transfer the directions layer you create to Google Map so you can actually navigate?
@@Jojo_Flake Where you able to print out the maps and the layers?
From all the google maps tutorials I have seen this is the best, thank you.
Fantastic tutorial -- I also stumbled on to My Maps and am SO happy you put this together!
This was so helpful! thanks so much!
Thank you for this detailed view of GMM! Exactly what I needed. :)
Well done. I just learned about My Maps and this was an excellent introduction. Now I can get on with using it. Thank you
Very well done explaining the creation and basic features. I use for our RV trip planning.
Very interesting and helpful thanks for the video
thank you! great tutorial.
Super useful video and it is very interesting to use these tools to make the travel worthwhile
Very well done!!!!
I only discovered My Maps yesterday. I had a friend send me a GPX map he makes in Guru Maps, I remembered I had OSMand so I started messing with that but go a bit overloaded. So I did what we all do, googled how to use those, stayed up too late ... then just now your video was suggested so here I am. Very good mellow and easy to understand video, thank you. TBH I started thinking why would I need anything else, but I've realised Google Maps doesn't get all the way down to the tiny walking paths I need for back country m/c trails in Thailand. I'll check out more of your videos, My Maps can be good for getting the overall plan done quickly.
thank you!!!
👍 Well done!
Thanks hunny
hi, great video - can you change distance from km - to miles? thanks
Clear instructions thanks. Can you tell me how to get rid of all the markers so I have a clear map to only display my own points and not all the other businesses?
Hi, I'm just discovering GMM and it looks really interesting. I'm thinking of using it for business purposes. If I wanted to create a map of, let's say, the plumbers in a local area, how could I do that? Is there a way to show ONLY the plumbing businesses in a specified area, and not all of the other things that show up for that area, like restaurants and other points of interest? Thanks!
Google maps has some potential, but still falls short. Need to be able to edit it on my iphone, because I am not driving with my laptop. For example, if I have a route planned on my map and then want to add a restaurant or gas station, to my route, I cannot do that. I can share it, but it is only for viewing.
Hi, is it possible to change the colors of the walking or driving paths in Google My Maps?
Hello - Is there a way to create a layer but be able to adjust the numbering so it doesn't read 1,2,3 rather it would read 5,6,7, etc. I am doing a report for work and there's a list of properties within a market and there's numerous submarkets within the market. I am showing a map of each of the properties in each submarket and I would like the numbering to reflect what the property list is showing when I create a new layer. I would really appreciate any advice for this!
Thank you for the tutorial. It was explained very clearly and without all unnecessary comments and waste of time. Well Done. I love it 👍👍👍
Can you print this out, with the layers and notes open?
You can’t do this on a iPad Pro ? What about a laptop ? It must be a desk top ? I’m confused & dont own a desktop- trying to plan a 1 week London map -
Is it possible to use a library to set it up then have it avail offline on phone etc
Good tutorial but I suggest making layers based on POI, so like restaurants, museums, parks etc etc. but it is up to each individual to do what they want tbh.
I wish Google My Maps had the feature to go by boat!!
Elevation info for hilly areas
how do I find other people maps that they made
Where is public transit?
Once an itinerary has been created in Google My Maps, is there a way to transfer it to Google Maps in order to make it "mobile"?
I would like to create a trip and send it to my childrens phone on Google Maps incase they get lost.
Yes you can!
You can go on your phone, open google maps and then go to my maps and see them there
Thank you for creating this! Would you be interested in collaborating on the development of a mobile app that allows you to access and create interactive maps to share with others? The app lets you invite friends to participate in the map creation process and allows you to interact with friends within the map itself. The app is almost ready, but would you like to try it before we launch? If so, with your feedback we could fine tune it to create something that you and your fans would love.
I didn't see Google My Maps on my Android Play Store. Have they changed the name?
She said it’s just a website
Hi, can you only have one layer with the directions? And it is limited to 10 points ?
You can have multiple layers with directions but similar to google maps it’s limited in the # of stops
@@travelaimes I do not understand what you mean # of stops... I thought we could not add directions inside a layer but create a layer with directions only, I did make one and when I try to create another the options are not possible to select, but only select a line. Maybe is a bug on My Google Map
Google maps and Google my maps both fail IMO. Google maps is far more versatile than My Maps, but fails because you cannot export as a GPX or KML file to download to a Garmin sat nav. My Maps, you can download to KML or GPX, but the route for driving cannot have parameters set to suit the journey you want to make. Its OK if you are happy to drive from one point to another using the roads Google choose, usually a motorway or toll road. If you want to use less busy roads, more scenic, driving through villages and small towns perhaps, then you cant. the perfect solution would be for Google to enable export of Google map files to KML or GPX.
Does Google actually think that people don't take TRAINS, for god's sake? Then why is there no rail option when adding directions? AS IF I want to drive on the wrong side of the road from London to Liverpool...no thanks, give me British Rail, Google!
You are so beautiful ❤
Como indexo un my maps a Google search console
Gracias
