  • LPT: Running out of Google Drive/Gmail space? Use “older_than:6y” in the search bar and then mass delete. Use “larger:10m” to find every email larger than 10mb and then mass delete.
    I mean the change from maps.google.com to google.com/maps It seems trivial, but it's not. - Source: Reddit / 7 days ago
  • Releasing a URL
    Google.com is the domain name that leads you to google.com/maps. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Releasing a URL
    I only need access to google maps (google.com/maps), but I don't want to access google.com. It is possible? - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • So What "Connections" Did BK Have With The 4 Murdered Students?
    I did from google.com/maps for Moscow, ID and Mad Greek did not appear, but 9 others did. Mad Greek has a lot of meat and feta cheese on salads and many other dishes, so vegans would have many, many issues. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Google changed Google Maps URL: Your location data is no longer safe
    The mobile application 100% needs to know your location when navigating, but maps.google.com (or now google.com/maps ) does not. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Change in Google Maps?
    Also I'm pretty sure, I have visited google.com/maps a year ago and loaded the same page as maps.google.com(as in the same page, with redirecting), it probably was more of an annoyance to manage both, merging it was probably the best option, I am surprised they hadn't done it earlier. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Neighbor cut down a tree on my property without my consent. I'm in CO USA
    Google.com/maps input your address, click where it says "layers" and you probably will have a great from the top picture of that tree (which can be used to measure its height). Mix in a consulting arborist (not just an arborist) who can suggest how much whatever kind of tree is worth (looking at the stump, knowing how much a tree of the same size is worth etc) and get a lawyer that knows tree laws. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • Is there a way to know when exactly google earth last updated your area?
    On google.com/maps in satellite view at the bottom is: Imagery ©2022 ,etc. I believe the same is on the earth app. - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago
  • What program or app do you like to use for travel itineraries?
    To create a list go to google.com/maps. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • When I try to open the Google Maps website in Fennec it automatically switches to Organic Maps. How can I prevent this without turning the option "Open links in apps" in Fennec completely off?
    When I try to access google.com/maps though it opens Google Maps in Fennec as I want (and frankly expect) it to. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • How do i do this?!? [Image] Im new to this, i dont get it 🥺👉🏻👈🏻
    Just to add... This only gives you a spot where you can type. You have to fill in the locations and the distance on your own. Use Google maps (google.com/maps) to get a good approximation of distance. - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • Google subdomains vs subfolders
    It's just one redirecting to the other. maps.google.com is a subdomain and google.com/maps is likely an application hosted at the root of google.com. Google is incredibly large and how their infrastructure is set up I couldn't say. In IIS however, this would be the "same site" but with applications under that root site. They could also have balancing based on the URI stem to different servers. Who knows. - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • Help In Getting Mapkit js or Google Map Credentials
    I know that there are so many applications (Like Google Map, Apple Map, etc...) are available but I want to make them with some my own features which can help people who are blind. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago
  • force google.com search results from google.com/maps to maps.google.com?
    Hello, any idea how I can force google.com search results from google.com/maps to maps.google.com instead? Google.com/maps seems to have fewer personalized results, fewer features etc and its just all around worse. I've searched and searched and can't see to find anything - setting, hidden feature, addon, hack etc. - Source: Reddit / 11 months ago
  • Google Business help to increase local seo
    As with the local search view, the interface at google.com/maps includes the interactive listing of local business listings with an interactive map. - Source: Reddit / 11 months ago
  • What equipment is on this tower?
    Heads up, your location comment was removed - you have to use https://maps.google.com or https://google.com/maps, rather than the shortener. It's still visible if you click onto your profile. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Use technology wisely! Mark unexploded ordnance and mines using online maps (safely)
    There's only one situation I can think of where I'd recommend turning your geolocation services on, and only for a few moments and that is when you encounter any suspicious looking devices left behind, unexploded ordnance (i.e artillery, missiles etc) or landmines. There's a cool little feature in google.com/maps where you can create a custom map that you can overlay with markers, lines / polygons, shaded polygons... - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • How would one get specific data from a ram memory dump?
    I already found what process it is in (I searched through the dump and all the ocurrecences of google.com/maps were in one specific pid). - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Weird behavior of some Google apps
    Shields has no effect. But I just noticed, that when I open Maps from App menu (top right corner) it opens address google.sk/maps and this site has this weird behavior as I mentioned before. But when I open google.com/maps it works normally. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago

  • Chicago will be fully reopen in less than 2 days!
    I recently discovered this new website, it's called https://google.com/maps . I wonder if they had heard about it before? I hear it gives very reliable directions. - Source: Reddit / almost 2 years ago
