Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out three principles of technoskepticism — and explains why, two years after sounding the alarm in “The…

I work at 5 different locations. One single workplace address does not suffice.
I used to be able to pin my work locations but Google took it away recently. DUMB!

Try
“electrify america stations with grocery store near it”
…. CHAT-GPT gets me more useful results than Google maps for the query above

3:18 Entrance for work Vs entrance for a client need to be different. If I work at a hospital, don’t want to be park my car at the ER entrance, right ? Gmaps need to get the basics right.

Listen to feedback from users Google! I signed up as tester. You need to get the basics better, so stay grounded like that first. You are trying too hard to make it simple at the expense of usability to pro-users

Why would I type these queries on GMaps instead of on the Search bar or some Gemini widget?

Android Auto users still can’t report objects on road, crashes, etc.. Maps for Android Auto could use some updates.

How about the easiest route from point A to B? Instead of 11 left hand turns onto busy roads or uncontrolled intersections vs intersections with traffic lights.

Can’t they just fix the current neglected products instead of developing “new” features that do the same things in a slightly different format?

Feature I want:
1. For a list of saved places, create a x-day itinerary.
2. When I select the direction to a place in the saved places list, don’t remove the other saved places from the map. Very difficult to remember all the place names if I want to add multiple places.
