Howto...

Hi, Everybody, could You help me, how I can add geographical places? There are a lot of “categories”, but mainly bars, hotels, places connected to the life in a town. I did find a lot of nice places which cannot be fitted to the list of categories. Also, I cannot upload videos. MJ.

Hi @Mizsei

Thank you for asking

Please note that Local Guides cannot change the information on the map layer (Street, squares, bridges, rivers, and more) but of course we can inform Google Maps of the error, as a missing bridge. We do this sending a Feedback. Follow this link to the Google Maps Help page for a detailed explanation: Report an error on the map

What do you exactly means when you say “I cannot upload video”? Which device are you using? Please check Add, remove, or share photos and videos

Hi, ermest, when I use Add, remove, or share photos and videos , the system offers me to upload photos only. R.: MJ

Hi @Mizsei

About videos, the procedure is exactly the same that you use for uploading photos, just you have to keep the shutter pressed for recording a video up to 10 seconds lenght.

Uploading an existing video is possible too, with the same procedure that you use to upload photos. Only the first 30 secons of the video will be taken
