New: search reviews on Google Maps

[kmajewski]

Finding reviews on Google Maps that tell you exactly what you want to know about a place is now easier than ever. On both Google Maps for Android and iOS, you can now search reviews for keywords or phrases. 

Caption: A screenshot of the new search feature in action searching for reviews on Google Maps for Android that contain the word “wheelchair.”

You can search for things like “wheelchair” if you want to know more about the accessibility of a place or “vegetarian” if you’d like to know more about a restaurant’s vegetarian options. Searching pulls up all of the reviews that mention what you searched for so you can find out more information from someone who has been there.

Here’s how to search reviews on Google Maps for Android:

• Search for a place on Google Maps
• Tap the Reviews tab
• Type what you are looking for into the search bar

Here’s how to search reviews on Google Maps for iOS:

• Search for a place on Google Maps
• Scroll down to the Reviews section
• Type what you are looking for into the search bar

We hope you like the update! Let us know what you think in the comments.

Oh this is completely useful. You can easily get the information you need from users' review without having to read the entire reviews on the place. Especially in places with hundreds of reviews.

Amazing feature @kmajewski This means now we can quickly search for information we intend to see. 

 Washroom / Toilet facilities

Parking

Drinking Water

Wheelchair

Best time to visit

[VBenedict]

Has anyone tested this function?  The search bar only appears after searching for a specific business.

I tested for wheelchair and several other common keywords, and it rendered negative results.

Bonjour,

Vraiment super.

Des adaptations pratiques et bien pensées.

Je découvre localguidesconnect et je trouve vraiment cela super.

Toutes ces possibilités qui s'offrent à ceux qui veulent partager mais aussi à ceux qui veulent découvrir.

Merci ☺

[jojo522]

Very convenient and time saving feature.

[AdamGT]

@kmajewski, how does this relate to the standard Maps Search?  For example, if I enter "ice cream" in the Search here bar I see photos and a summary of the reviews for different icecremeries.

[rruiz]

Not yet implemented at Mexico/Spanish. Still waiting !!
