Hey everyone! I’m Andrew and I’m the Product Manager for lists on Google Maps. I had such a great time recently at Connect Live, and since then, I’ve been thinking that I really need to ask our amazing Local Guides some more questions. So here they are!

 

Have you ever created and published a list on Google Maps? Take this survey and tell us more about a list you’re proud to have made.

 

Your response to this survey will help us shape the future of lists on Google Maps, so thank you in advance!

Hi @Andrew_C my most recent trip to the US was probably the first time I used lists to plan the trip, previously I had always used MyMaps. Lists and MyMaps have significant cross over but I have to say that I did find the list concept easier to share and get feedback and to add location suggested by others. You can see my NYC city list https://goo.gl/maps/iShS9uvmYxL2 which has a ton of ideas from Googler @TraciC and @brittym as well as some of my own. The aspect of easily sharing is what has convinced me to use them more. I've started building local lists lately which I will share once I've gathered more places and built them into a story. Story building along with my photos and my reviews of places consolidated into the List concept would be an awesome way to generate a travel micro blog and share with others.

 Thank you a lot  to @Andrew_C for your check up on us, I was totally forgot to do the survey, yes I managed to create a list but never shared as it is private, I also managed to complete the survey. Thank you for helping us with this great feature and more understanding you provided to us during Connectlive 2018.

@Andrew_C I have created several list regarding different  place and foods,but all of them are private .I didn't share because I need to add more details about those places.I think a list is more helpful to guide others only when if we add specific information.

Hi, @Andrew_C. Thanks for sharing a great information. Thought lists are for personal use, after reading your blog came to know how to share it with others. Really it's of great use. This would help me share different local must visit places with the people who visit here. I submitted the survey and also submitted my contribution link in the survey. Hope my contribution helps. Always happy and excited to contribute to Google Maps 😀🙌

I'd be eager to submit, once clear. I'm really enjoying he interactive nature, since it has taken a positive inclusive turn.

Thanks for your post. I just started to learn about this. I really feel it's hard, I don't know how to add a place. And I was struggling all day. It's awful.

Hey @Andrew_C, I have not created any list on Google maps so far. Was not aware of this feature.  The questions in the survey were targeted to the local guides who have created the list.  Anyway, will create the list from now.

Great feature, but it does need some polishing. On desktop for example it would be very nice to have an option to make the menu for lists etc larger, as it only takes up about a quarter of the screen at the moment of writing. Furthermore, the option needs to be somewhat easier to find(me personally having trouble finding it at first). And finally, it would be cool to add some lists to the menu that pops up when you look up a city or place on maps, for example having some popular lists of Amsterdam in the menu when you search for Amsterdam.
