This overlooked Google Maps feature has become my secret weapon for staying organized

A writer for XDA Developers has discovered a useful Google Maps feature that helps them stay organized while traveling. They previously relied on Google Keep notes and Sheets documents to keep track of addresses, phone numbers, and itineraries, but have found a better way to do this using Google Maps.

The writer had been using a cumbersome system to plan trips, jotting down important details in notes or spreadsheets. However, they have now found that Google Maps offers a more organized solution, although the details of this feature are not specified.

The discovery was reported by XDA Developers, while TechRadar discussed a separate issue with Apple Maps, which has started showing ads to users in the US and Canada. This change has been met with disapproval from Apple fans, with some users saying they will switch to Google Maps as a result.
