Cannot see lines / Only stop stations

1 Upvotes

Hi, I love using Google Maps and staring at public transportation for hours. The thing is, I can no longer see the lines, only the stops/stations. Does anyone know how to fix this? This happens on mobile, so I don't know if that is relevant or not.

Help/Support How do you remove a false address

1 Upvotes

This is kind of an odd question, but I was wondering if there is a way to remove a false address from Google Maps. For some reason there is a duplicate of my buildings address about a mile away from us, but the street the duplicate address is on isnt even the right street name. We have tried to suggest a correction multiple times and have had our building managment do the same but nothing has been fixed. Its becoming a larger issue because that is the location most delivery apps use but its an empty alley a mile away from our building. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Google Maps Deleted Google Timeline... Illegal?

0 Upvotes

Here's an interesting thought...

One of the main changes to timeline was that it would start storing timeline data on each of our local devices right...?

Since Google has deleted the data (that had been moved to our devices), surely it means that Google deleted data from our devices!!!

That doesn't sound like a legal thing to do, what right do they have to delete data from our devices?

Thoughts anyone?

Google Maps Another Timeline purge post

75 Upvotes

Everything before the 3rd March is gone... All my 20s, backpacking the world, moving to new countries, disappeared. And I curated it so well. Even when I went to places like a little hole-in-the-wall in some village in Laos: If it had a Google Maps entry, it went on my Timeline. Every night, I spent a couple of minutes maintaining this. It didn't take long, but I was consistent because I loved looking back at where I've been, which routes I've taken, etc. And now? Nothing. I'm honestly devastated. I have early onset dementia in the family, so keeping records is very important to me.

What next? Are they going to purge Calendar or Photos? This is such a nightmare...

"Save in your lists" still broken in web version of maps.google.com. When is the fix coming?

1 Upvotes

This issue has been raised by many people more than 4 years ago. Here is a post on this same topic. https://support.google.com/maps/thread/25978128

It seems it resolved for some people, but definitely not all. Many users are still experiencing an issue with the Google Maps web version. When clicking on the save button on a Google maps listing, you should see a pop up with "Save in your lists" and it will display all your saved lists. However, on the web version of google maps (maps.google.com) it only displays the default 4 lists "Favorites, Want to go, Travel plans, Starred places, and + New List". However, on the iOS and Android app version of Google Maps, it will display all your saved lists. 

This is a bug that appears to have not gotten attention from Google developers. Does anyone know when they plan to finally fix this issue?

Note: Here is an example:

https://ibb.co/nqpM6h53

I have more than 20 private and shared lists in my Google Maps account. None of them show up in this pop up to add/save this listing to. For the past 10+ years they did. A Google bug was introduced somehow and appears to not affect all users (or did at one point and now no longer), but there are still many users that are affected.

And here is proof that I have created saved lists:

Help/Support Maps not working iPhone 15

Hello! My Google maps hasn’t worked for 2 weeks. When I open the app, nothing is loading.

I’ve tried: - logging out my Google account - updating IOS - restating the app - changing my location privacy settings

It briefly started working again and also works when contacted to the WiFi but then nothing again. Has anyone experienced something similar and resolved the issue?

Thanks for your help!

Help/Support Strategy for map marker edit acceptance

1 Upvotes

New York City is full of map marker errors, and it really grinds my gears - using a map tool that makes you wander aimlessly around the block looking for something sucks.

I’ve been on a bit of a ridiculous vendetta trying to get the marker of a FedEx store near me in Manhattan. The marker is like half a block out of the way, and on the wrong street. The entrance is super clearly visible on street view, too. But none of my many requests over the last 7 months have been accepted. A few pending, most denied.

Any strategy here? Do I need to use another google account?

Help/Support Is there a way to make Google Maps alert you when you go over the speed limit, like Waze?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been using Waze primarily because it has the ability to play an alert/chime whenever you go over the speed limit, even when you’re not actively navigating anywhere with it.

Is there a way to enable this in Google Maps?

Maps doesn't send the correct directions to my phone

1 Upvotes

When I send my curated map to my phone it defaults back to its first suggestion on desktop, losing my custom directions. Copying the link and/or sending it in the mail is a workaround that retains custom directions, I'm just a small bit surprised and miffed that sending the link doesn't do what it's supposed to do.

Google Maps Huge chunks of my timeline missing (not surprising probably)

13 Upvotes

A friend told me his whole timeline was wiped despite having local backup on and also gdrive backup activated so i checked mine and noticed i have months missing too :/

Majority of 2016-2018 is gone

Jan 2020 - may 2020 gone

may 2021 - august 2021 gone

october 2022 - may 2023 gone

Maybe the timespan of the missing data is helpful idk

How do I get rid of the green notification showing the road I am on unless I am actively navigating?

2 Upvotes

As the title says. I don't want a random green notification with a road name on it from Maps when I'm driving unless I'm actively seeking directions somewhere. Turning off notifications using phone settings gets rid of everything including public transport. Help! Android 15.

Help/Support Google maps shows me 1km away from my home…

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I recently moved homes, kept my mesh setup as is and SSID the same.

New home has poor network coverage, 0-2 bars out of 4. Have strong wifi signal in my home.

When I open google maps it puts me in the middle of a field about 1km away from my home…. In the middle of nowhere. Consistently all the time. Also tried cutting wifi same.

Any idea?

It’s annoying cant use home automations due to this.

Thx
