Why I don’t get Question & Answer option? Though I’m not a android user, but I’m not even getting this feature on web search!

Hi @mimran7212921 ,

Please be informed that Ask and answer questions about a place feature is not available for IOS users.

However, you may use it on desktop. Here you may find instructions how this may happen.

Thanks @MashaPS for your attention.

I’ve checked those instructions and tried that way, but still I’m not getting this.
Is this available for any specific region or city?

Hi, I have the same issue. And I have android. I didn’t find this option in my phone and in google maps on my laptop also.

Hi @mimran7212921 ,

As mentioned in the article I linked for you above: “During the unprecedented COVID-19 situation, we are taking steps to protect the health of our team members and prioritize critical services. As a result, there may be some temporary limitations and delays in how you can contribute to Maps.”
