    Hey Tasia, thanks for a great video, some great tips in there. I'm hoping you can help me with a Google map proble. I want to map out a walk I am doing. I'm planning on walking 12 miles a day. Is there a way to plot this on a "Google My Map?" I'm going to be walking for about 30 days so need to plot each day individually in a singel map. Can you help? Thank you in advance, Gx

    • @TasiaCustode
      @TasiaCustode  Před 19 dny +1

      Hey, yes I believe you can do what you're asking. Head to Google My Maps and click on 'create a new map'. Go to the top left and click "Untitled map." Give your map a name and description. You should be able to plot out or add your walking route. You would simply save each route as their own map (so title them appropriately). Here's an old article that might be helpful too: ukoutdoors.co.uk/plot-a-walking-route-on-google-maps/#:~:text=Draw%20a%20Line&text=Select%20%E2%80%9CAdd%20walking%20route%E2%80%9D%20from,on%20your%20chosen%20starting%20location.

  • @robbit4butterfly
    @robbit4butterfly Před měsícem

    In former days there was Google Latitude which gives you the possibility to share your location only by showing the city you're currently in. I then had many contacts on my map visible (as they were willing to share their location not by city and house but by town) and in two occasions I had make a spontaneous appointment with them. Too bad that Google still doesn't offer this. And if they do now, they probably will take it away soon (again).😕

      I think I know what you mean...I don't think so. You can see flight information, but I don't believe there's real-time tracking during the flight in Maps (assuming you have wifi). You can use Google to simply search the flight number and it'll tell you status :)
