    I only discovered My Maps yesterday. I had a friend send me a GPX map he makes in Guru Maps, I remembered I had OSMand so I started messing with that but go a bit overloaded. So I did what we all do, googled how to use those, stayed up too late ... then just now your video was suggested so here I am. Very good mellow and easy to understand video, thank you. TBH I started thinking why would I need anything else, but I've realised Google Maps doesn't get all the way down to the tiny walking paths I need for back country m/c trails in Thailand. I'll check out more of your videos, My Maps can be good for getting the overall plan done quickly.

    Hi, I'm just discovering GMM and it looks really interesting. I'm thinking of using it for business purposes. If I wanted to create a map of, let's say, the plumbers in a local area, how could I do that? Is there a way to show ONLY the plumbing businesses in a specified area, and not all of the other things that show up for that area, like restaurants and other points of interest? Thanks!

    Google maps has some potential, but still falls short. Need to be able to edit it on my iphone, because I am not driving with my laptop. For example, if I have a route planned on my map and then want to add a restaurant or gas station, to my route, I cannot do that. I can share it, but it is only for viewing.

    Hello - Is there a way to create a layer but be able to adjust the numbering so it doesn't read 1,2,3 rather it would read 5,6,7, etc. I am doing a report for work and there's a list of properties within a market and there's numerous submarkets within the market. I am showing a map of each of the properties in each submarket and I would like the numbering to reflect what the property list is showing when I create a new layer. I would really appreciate any advice for this!

      @@travelaimes I do not understand what you mean # of stops... I thought we could not add directions inside a layer but create a layer with directions only, I did make one and when I try to create another the options are not possible to select, but only select a line. Maybe is a bug on My Google Map

    Thank you for creating this! Would you be interested in collaborating on the development of a mobile app that allows you to access and create interactive maps to share with others? The app lets you invite friends to participate in the map creation process and allows you to interact with friends within the map itself. The app is almost ready, but would you like to try it before we launch? If so, with your feedback we could fine tune it to create something that you and your fans would love.

    Google maps and Google my maps both fail IMO. Google maps is far more versatile than My Maps, but fails because you cannot export as a GPX or KML file to download to a Garmin sat nav. My Maps, you can download to KML or GPX, but the route for driving cannot have parameters set to suit the journey you want to make. Its OK if you are happy to drive from one point to another using the roads Google choose, usually a motorway or toll road. If you want to use less busy roads, more scenic, driving through villages and small towns perhaps, then you cant. the perfect solution would be for Google to enable export of Google map files to KML or GPX.

    Does Google actually think that people don't take TRAINS, for god's sake? Then why is there no rail option when adding directions? AS IF I want to drive on the wrong side of the road from London to Liverpool...no thanks, give me British Rail, Google!
