Rob, that is SUPER SLICK!!! Thanks! I'm heading up alone this weekend because my friend who was going had a death in the family, so I'm having to re-plan my itinerary. This is really helpful. We were just up 2 weekends ago and did a lot of walking, but both enjoy it because Richmond is such a car-centric town. We waited for a Circulator bus that never showed up near the Vietnam Memorial, so finally hoofed it from there to 6th & E streets for dinner. Most trips I manage between 7-8 miles on foot, which is fine by me. :)

Great work Rob! Google Maps made our trip travel perfect. So easy and clear and we used it everywhere for all modes of travel and it was next to faultless.

I cannot thank you enough for this! The only thing that is different now is that on iOS there is not an app called Google My Maps. You actually use Google Maps. By default, Google Maps opens on the Explore page, just click on the Saved button at the bottom of the page. On the Saved page, there is a horizontal row of icons under the word, Labeled - click on the one that reads, Maps. On the Maps screen, you will find all the Maps that have been created per your instructions in this video!

Great suggestions. We used this last week for our DC trip and it really saved time and made the trip more efficient. Couple more tips for "My Maps"... For the custom markers you can add text to the dialogs. I added the hours of when each location was open as well as their entrance fee. With My Maps you can export to a PDF and print that out which for some is more convenient. You can also share a link to your map with your friends by going to "Share", changing the permissions and then copying the specified url. These shared urls can be viewed in any browser...but I'm not sure if there is a way to show the "current location" using this method.

if you change each one from the default of individual styles to uniform style, then every time from then on it keeps the same color and design you choose, like restaurants being purple with a fork and knife. this will save you alot of time if you are choosing alot of places to see. wonderful video i learned a lot

Hey there! I'm trying to plan a family trip to Yellowstone, is there any way to navigate with the preplanned route in My Maps, because the only way I can get the directions to work is by clicking on the landmark and then it just basically places that landmark in the destination field.
@TheMmcconnell
4 жыл бұрын
@@jonathan.varghese thats it. The best work around I've been able to find is to create a new layer with all of your key desired route stops or if you have a really large trip, do it by the day. From there tap on the destination and it should pull up an options for directions. Another tip is when you need to navigate along your predetermined route, turn off all of the other layers from your map so you only see these key destinations. I've been researching this for hours and I haven't found a better work around. Someone please enlighten me if there is, I would love to be wrong about this. Rant: why can you set it up to provide you with directions but when you load it on your phone there's no way to navigate to a location you have chosen that already needs directions. Honestly the biggest disappointment and just completely don't understand how this isn't implemented.

I love Google My Maps for trip planning! As far as I know, though, there is not a separate app available for iphone. I have to access it through Google Maps. I also think it's crazy that there is no navigation feature AND worst of all, it doesn't have full functionality unless you're on wi-fi!! That means it's great for planning, but awkward to actually use when traveling. WHY??

Well, I am watching this video because after spending a day on my maps and mapping the roadway of the old Lincoln Highway through the states of New York and New Jersey, I looks as though My Maps does not provide real time dynamic driving directions only 20 year old printed step 1, step 2, ect. technology. I hope I am wrong. PS, watched the video till the end and I looks like I was correct. Google My maps cannot give you driving directions. Everyone making these My Maps tutorials should explain that up front.
