Language of Google maps

[Basitwani]

@VijayDesai@

I am from kashmir and most of the people in kashmir does not know English, they only know urdu language which is the official language of our state. They face difficulties while searching for places as it is only available  in English. I want to know how the names of paces can be translated to urdu and what can I do for this as a local guide.

Hello @Basitwani in addition to the info in the post @VijayDesai already pointed to: when using the desktop version of Google Maps, it is much easier to switch the language of your interface than on the phone (where you have to leave Maps and go to the Settings of the phone). On desktop there is an option to change language in the main menu of Google Maps irself (3 horizontal stripes).
