In the google maps app version, I could see badges but when I open my google maps profile in the laptop I couldn’t see the google local guides badges.
I am not sure whether it is a bug or technical error on my end. Anyways I strongly wish that I could see my proud google local guides badges in the google maps profile laptop version.
I have screenshots below , if anybody here can figure out the error and help me to see my badges in desktop version that could be great help .
This is normal, there is not an error nor an issue in your account. Google maps for web is a bit different from Google Maps App, there are functions available only in the App, like badges and Followers, or the navigation (driving) feature.
I also want to let you know that we use the How Tos label to ask question to the community, while Idea Exchange has been designed to suggest ideas to Google for improvements.
I see you have got a complete answer by @ErmesT . There are some differences in the mobile application and the desktop version of Google Maps.
Please note that I am going to move your post to the How-tos section of Connect where you may ask questions, share tips and feedback as said above.
I will also mark ermest’s reply as a solution to your question. The purpose of this feature is to help Local Guides find answers when searching on the Connect. You can take a look at: Tip: How do I mark comments as solutions?
