Yes @MuhammadAI that’s how you set your Maps Lists to Public but from what I can see that doesn’t mean that anyone will see your Lists. You still have to give them the link!!! See: Google Maps Lists - It’s Crazy, Public is not Public

@AdamGT Making it public is for you to enable the list to be viewed using the link shared,
