Google Maps lets you mark Saved Places with emoji
Google Maps has a new feature that lets you use emoji to mark your Saved Places on the map. This makes it easier to find and recognize the places you love or want to visit.
To use this feature, you need to open the Saved tab in the Google Maps app and select a list of places. Then, you can tap on “Choose Icon” and pick any emoji you like. You can also search for emojis by typing their names (on iPhone only).
The emoji you choose will appear on the map for all the places in that list. You can see different emojis for different lists at the same time. This feature works on both Android and iOS devices, and it seems to be available for everyone now. You can change the emoji for any list, whether it is new or old.
With this feature, Google Maps makes your search more fun and personalized. You can use emoji to express yourself and organize your Saved Places in a creative way.
NEW UPDATE: now you can customize your saved places with emojis to help you find your fav spots faster 🌮☕️🍦🍔
