The question “Are you here?”

Google Maps tips & tricks
1

Hello Google champions,

I cannot see the question “Are you here now?”, when I am visiting a place. Am I alone in experiencing this problem?

My web&app activity is on and auto-delete is off.

My Location history is on and auto-delete is off.

best regards

Hi @I-am-Q

I still see “Are you here now?” now and then.

I believe you have your settings right. So maybe it is just random that you have not been prompted “Are you here now?”.

Which platform are you using?

You could try opening the place(s) on Google Maps and from there you might see “Know this place?” which will also take you to some questions.

And you can add places to your timeline manually if that is your concern.

Cheers

Morten

Olá, @I-am-Q

Eu também estou com a ferramenta funcionando normalmente, porém no fórum de Ajuda do Google Mapas __*__há outros usuários relatando problemas semelhantes, o que pode indicar um “bug” localizado. Outros usuários acrescentaram que o problema começou após atualização do aplicativo. Clique aqui para mais detalhes.

Sucesso

Hello Copenhagen and hello @MortenCopenhagen

I can see the the black banner asking me know this place? But only places I have been there before (according to my time line).

I will try to learn how to add places manually.

thanks for your help :pray:

@I-am-Q

Did you actually go visit some new places to test this?

Thanks, @I-am-Q

Since the question is not shown every time we visit a place, and I still see the question now and then, I doubt this can be escalated for now. Please keep an eye on it for another month, and report back in a new reply below.

All the best

Morten

Yeah, I’ve noticed it too. But I’m not sure whether it’s a bug or this feature has been removed from maps.
