You are welcome.

Which category? You may not be aware that adding private homes is not allowed on Google Maps.

@MortenCopenhagen it’s Apartment complex

@Mohiuddin_Ahmed

Apartment complex is a tricky category. As you know private homes should not be added to Google Maps.

My understanding is that Apartment complexes can only be added if they have a public facing office with regular and signed office hours where staff will meet customers.

This is not the case in most apartment complexes I know of. There might be an office with office hours but it is intended for tenants/owners only and not really for the public.

So adding appartement complex is proabably not the way to go.

Instead you should

Contribute

Edit map

Fix an address

To make sure Maps users in the future will get correct navigation to find the individual addresses inside your apartment complex.

Adding a apartment complex is not easy. It is an area an not a point. We can only add points of interest and not areas.

If you are confused about areas and items on the maps not accepting edits and photos, please enjoy this overview Shapes and Places - Guidance on where to add edits and photos including both flat and photospheres by PaulPavlinovich.

Such data issues are normally better dealt with in the Maps support forum.

Hit the Community tap at the top and make a post. You need to attach or link to official documentation supporting the change you are proposing.

Cheers
Morten

@Mohiuddin_Ahmed 我有同感,無法新增本來就有的地點。

Please don’t add any personal address on Google maps like home or like that. It is strictly prohibited on google maps. Thanks
