I reduced my list of who I follow to only 32. And I just copied all their user names into a text document. I then opened each profile to share/copy the links into the same text document. It too maybe 15 minutes for all 32 including using lens to convert the usernames to text.
Last chance, I guess.
@SholaIB @LightRich maybe it’s a matter of updating the app.
Chère @cuicani
C’est vrai,merci beaucoup. J’ai vu que pour toi est déjà parti aussi. Il ne reste que de faire une mise a jour.
C’est bien d’avoir votre avis sur ça.
Mir geht es ebenso @SholaIB und von Connect Follower können wir uns ja Profile von Google Maps anschauen.
I never quite understood the end goal of the followers feature. Since there is no way to connect with LGs through the Map, I thought it might evolve to that. But I agree with @LightRich in that it gives a sense of a Social Media profile, which is far from what Maps should be.
I can still see my list, @SholaIB. They’re hanging in there.
Tuesday 16th here too, and I can still see that I have 142 Followers and 187 Following. Was a bit disappointed to see them still there every day since September started. I don’t do social media, so this always felt like I was lured into something that I’d prefer not to be in.
Mine are still showing up…soon I hope.
@SholaIB Thank you for reminding us when finalizing this item. The followers and following options are still active here, but I believe they’ll be gone soon.
I honestly think the finalization of this item is a great thing. We were having a lot of problems with fake profiles and spam, as well as contacted by companies asking for fake reviews.
Maps isn’t a social network, so this type of interaction doesn’t make sense.
Yeah mr @SholaIB !
Actually for me it’s an important thing as there’s some followers that visit business through that following link ( something like when your follower get notified that you were at this night club yesterday and it was an fantastic moment and you do review think you’ve appreciated , nice time enjoyed and so on..)….
But Google must have it’s own reasons on its removal and I get the reason of @kurumipan like Map shouldn’t be like social medias…( that’s right too)
..
#LG.
Yeah mr @LightRich !
It seems the classement get Mr @SholaIB and maybe it’s by area or country by country!..
I still get mine too ![]()
#LG.
Hola @SholaIB totalmente de acuerdo, un número “x” de seguidores, al que, las mas de veces, ni leemos, nada aportan. Además, como bien lo han dicho, se corre el riesgo de desvirtuar el cometido de los Guías Locales y quedar expuestos, dando (de buena fe) un sinfín de información, que bots o visualizadores, pueden utilizar para otros fines.

I followed and then unfollowed after I found out that this feature is not available. @tony_b It is not strange.
So it’s 1st October 2025, and finally the Followers and the following section have been removed from my profile on Google Maps.
When I started contributing to Google Maps, including the points, badges, levels, and views, this followers section was also a way of motivation for me, although it was not that relevant, at least in my case, as this was just a number count, nothing more than that.
For more than a month I’ve been hearing the news that the following and followers section will be removed soon, and today it’s done. When initially I opened Google Maps app today, nothing was showing in that section, including my contributions and points, just a message that the feature has been removed. After a couple of hours now the contributions and points are visible.
I know that many people have many memories with the following feature, and I also have some stories and memories attached to it, and I am going to miss it. I hope someday in the future this feature can return. I want to thank all my followers for giving me the motivation to contribute more and more. Goodbye ![]()

Yes @Shaunak, I’ll also miss this feature🥲. It gave motivation in the early days, but finally it’s gone. Anyway, our points, badges & contributions will always keep inspiring us. Keep guiding…..
Thanks @mahatokoushik623 for the acknowledgement. Definitely we’ll gonna miss it. ![]()
I can confirm followers are also gone on my Android phone after a quick update.
