I travel constantly up and down the California State and rely on Google Maps to get me there. I’ve noticed that the distance are not accurate by at least 10 to 20 miles which of course affects the time & this has nothing to do with the quickest route. So I was wondering if you could do an update or something to fix this issue thanks so much for your time and have happy travels

Hi @Cali-Boy ,
Thanks for reaching out! : ]
In relation to your inquiry, I would suggest to share feedback on the matter to Google Maps, as I would also advice to check for upcoming updates from the Google Maps application on your smart phone device for any possible development.
Please keep in mind that, The Idea exchange category would mainly be utilized on Connect for Local Guides to share their feedback and ideas with our team to tell us about a way to improve the Local Guides program.
To learn more about the Idea Exchange, you can read the article How do I use the Idea Exchange?
Follow up to that, the post would be relocated to the How-tos category, should it be more fitting with the subject.

Hi @Cali-Boy ,
Thanks for sharing your concerns with us!
Just to be sure, would the inquiry be regarding the Google account details (profile picture)?
If so, you have tried to check as instructed in the article Change your Google Account name & other info, correct?
Additionally, I just wanted to let you know that on your Google Maps profile, the current picture would be identical to the one on your Connect profile.
No my profile picture won’t change on Google maps for example if I tap on contribute on maps my profile picture won’t and has not changed at all 3 attemptes the pictures are be totally different on each page it’s really frustrating how come it won’t change
My profile picture won’t change on the Bio page with my badge next to my pic on local Google connect
It’s just the Bio page my profile page on local Google connect that’s not changing every where else I can change the picture so in actually reality it’s working if that makes sence but the Bio page where you start to edit picture & personal information the same pic stays but when you tap to the actual information page it shows a different picture that’s the best wayt I can explain it sorry for all the messages
