If there is one single travel app that you should definitely not be without, I would have to say it’s Google Maps. But aside from just having that map app handy at all times, are you really making the best use of it? Let me give you a few tips for making the best use of that Google Map app by using Google Maps Saved Places.
What Is Google Maps Saved Places?
Not sure exactly what the “Saved Places” feature of Google Maps is? It’s essentially a list-making area. You can make lists of things that you found and wanted to keep track of on Google Maps.
Why Use Google Maps Saved Places When Traveling?
Why use this feature when you’re off on a trip somewhere? Oh, let me count the ways…
You’re Already using Google Maps
First, you’re probably already using Google Maps for some things. So why not harnass the full power of the app.
Who the Heck Can Remember?
When you’re traveling, (or even when you’re not LOL), if you see things throughout the day that you may want to revisit at a later time (restaurants, museums, etc.) who the heck can remember all this stuff? The reality is…you won’t. So you’ll miss out on whatever it was.
Use On Any Device
You can use Google Maps and Saved Places on any of your devices.
No Need For Internet
You can even use it offline if you need to. Perfect for those full-day jaunts out and about while you’re on vacation.
Those Paper Maps – Ever Lose Them?
Yep, be honest now. How many trips to the front desk or concierge have you made in any given place to get another city map? And hopefully you didn’t write all your important vacation notes on the one that you lost!
