As I was going through Google maps, I found some businesses have audio output of their name and address. Can I add audio of the same. If yes How ?

@kumar639sushil Hi!
Thanks for your question here.
The business name translation feature is working with Google Translate directly. It is totally a new technology from Google translate as I heard to make auto-translate a business/place name into different languages what we want like the text-to-speech technology of Google. So we don’t need to add any audio there.
Keep enjoying this amazing features of Google Maps.
Happy Guiding!

You can’t do anything to get this service more quickly. We all need to just wait until the roll out reaches our area and pins.
I noticed how the verbal language is all over the place and not perfect yet. It is still being developed and tested.
Cheers

Hello @kumar639sushil
The audio output for place names and addresses is added through automation and there isn’t any community access to add or edit that.
Further, the visibility of that will also depend upon the languages installed on your device and the region you explore.
Thus if you have your local language + English on your handset, you may not see any audio output for a POI in the US as in the screenshot below.
However, if you remove English and retain only the local language, you will see the audio output for the same place now!
Thus, the visibility of the audio output not only depends upon its availability but also on the languages installed on your device.
