Why it is essential
Maps, routes, and local places
Google Maps is a navigation and location app for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport users. It helps you find addresses, plan routes, check nearby businesses, and explore unfamiliar areas. The app suits commuters, travelers, and anyone who wants directions together with local place information in one tool. It is developed by Google LLC and listed in the Travel & Local category.
Navigation for different journeys
Google Maps provides turn-by-turn guidance for driving, walking, cycling, and public transit. Driving routes can respond to live traffic information and incidents, while public transport details can include updates for buses and trains where available. You can also download maps for selected areas, which is useful when traveling without a reliable data connection.
Explore places before you go
Alongside navigation, the app works as a local search directory. Search for restaurants, shops, attractions, services, and other points of interest, then compare details such as ratings, prices, cuisine, and expected crowd levels where that information is available. Street View and other visual tools can help you inspect destinations, entrances, and surrounding streets before arriving.
