How to add a video to Google Maps from iOS or PC?

[costaricanick]

I've added over a 1000 photos without any problems to Google Maps, however, I'm trying to upload a video to Google Maps but is not allowing me to do that. "Format error" - from my PC and there is no option on my iPhone to upload videos. I'd like to add short videos

Hey @costaricanick,

Currently you can contribute video to Google Maps only using an Android Device. Iphone does not have this feature yet. Please keep in mind that Google Maps and the Local Guides platform are growing very fast and maybe we will get to see this feature soon.

Best regards,

Georges

I still don't see how it works with iOS. If I click on a location, Add Photo/Video, my camera only allows photos and I can only upload photos. What is your step by step to get videos up directly from an iPhone?
