Hi @Bobiisha i am unable to add videos to my reviews and i only have just photos option. I recalled asking about this 2019 i suppose not sure.i was using Huawei Y6pro then and i could load videos, added 4 videos then my button just didn’t show up anymore. Is there a reason for this? In Ghana and i use Huawei P30 lite. I want to reach video Mark but i am limited. Thanks.

Hello @GiftyGifty
There is no such thing as a tab/button for adding videos to our reviews. Infact,I don’t think you ever had that on your profile as you claimed. You add videos the same way you add photos.
Please follow this LINK by @AdamGT or this Reply I gave to a similar post like yours.
Therefore it’s through the add photo option you also add videos.
Hope this answers your question.
Kind regards

as @SholaIB said, the procedure for adding photos and videos is exactly the same.
As a reference you can read the guide, accessible directly from your Google Maps App tapping on your avatar then on “Help and Feedback” and searching for Video;: Add, remove, or share photos and videos
From the help page you will find a whole set of instruction about the use of Google Maps

- this is how it looks no video option. Only photos.
As i claimed? Its not fair you put it that way. Making me sound like I’m lying about this?? There was an option to add videos as i add picures back then but the photo options are there but not video when about to load per review like the picture sent and like i said i already done it before and have a number of videos on my profile and suddenly I’m unable to for a long time now which is why i explained per my enquiry.
Thank you. Will look at that. Appreciate the feedback
Hey @GiftyGifty ,
Would you mind trying to follow the steps in this article and let me know if you are able to upload a video this way, so I can assist further if needed?
