Eine neue Funktion im Test

Ist diese Funktion schon irgendjemand aufgefallen.

Ich meine damit die Kamera neben meinem Profilbild.

Ich habe darauf getippt und dann wird ein Bild angezeigt. Ich soll dann weiter gehen und es testen.

Leider liege ich im Krankenhaus und bin angebunden an Geräten.

Sehr Schade ich würde es liebend gerne ausprobieren.

Liebe Grüße

Verzeih mir mein lieber Freund @TravellerG ich habe das Tag vergessen.

Ich kann keinen Link davon machen.

Es ist die Hauptseite meines Profils bei Google Maps

This

“It is the main page of my profile on Google Maps”

was helpful. Thanks.

I dont see it under my profile. We have suggested repeatedly to have links from the Maps app to Connect. This could be a test of this.

Thanks for sharing.

No idea @MortenCopenhagen

I checked in both Google Maps and Connect

on both mobile and desktop :blush:

Probably the feature is not available in some geographies.

The camera icon is the one to start Google Lens.

Hallo @Annaelisa ist das die Android oder die Apple (iPhone) App? Bei mir auf Android sehe ich das Icon leider auch nicht.

Jedenfalls wünsche ich eine gute Besserung und viele Grüße aus Umbrien.

This is how your profile looks on my end

What you are looking at is not your profile page but your main contribute page where the view graph resides.

This is what I see on my main contribution page.

The horizontal line of Icons is not new.

Or is it something else you think is new?

Thanks for the tag, @MortenCopenhagen .

I don’t have that “camera” in my profile in Google Maps, @Annaelisa

1000025067.png

So we will have to wait for your test to know what is the purpose of the camera.

Morten is right, it is identical to the symbol of Google Lens. Interesting

But I can’t understand how that symbol could be in some way a test to link Connect on Google Maps :thinking:

Ahhh, finally I understand what @Annaelisa was trying to draw our attention to.

I have the Google Lens icon between the microphone and my profile pic all over in my Android Maps app. As seen below.

It is a new way of searching in Maps.

When you tap the Google Lens this appears:

If you then leave the demo by tapping Start your camera opens and you turn your phone to look around nearby Maps pins will be super imposed on to what your camera show to tell you what is near by.

I recall some announcement and Instagram vids bragging that we soon will be able to search with camera. This is probably it.

It might be helpful when you feel lost or have a problem with knowing where north and south are in real life (like me).

Cheers

Thank you for the information @MortenCopenhagen

I don’t have the Lens icon yet and I am using an android as well.

Is there a way to have the Lens icon in Maps?

I have updated Maps app and also Android is up-to-date.

I have not done anything to set this up. I think this is a serverside thing.
