    Your video was very good. But is there a real way to change an entire street name or add a residential house nr so it really sticks and does not stay in a pending suggestion state? Are there alternative ways to achieve something like that? Asking because here in Estonia some areas that are so called old Summer house residential areas, that now are converting to year round living areas. And Google has not mapped and tagged everything quite as it should have done. If this is something you are intrigued to look into, let me know. Or it can be addressed in a future tips video as well. I'm really interested in that topic because I love to learn about Google Business Profiles and Google Maps in an in depth way :)

    The most nightmarish driving experience of my life came after I apparently, inadvertently, touched the 'avoid expressways, interstates' thing. While trying to navigate ON the freeway around Atlanta 🤐. As it was getting dark. Ended up on some God forsaken 2lane mountain road. They need to make settings changes MUCH harder to do...such as asking twice for permission changes.

    Hi Tasia, I travel in a Ram Promaster Hightop Cargo Van. It also has a fan on the roof. Traveling in Las Vegas getting directions from Siri or Google it took me to the airport where the height restriction was I think 9 feet. I had to back up from a lot of traffic. Not a fun experience. Is there something on google maps to specify your vehicle's height restrictions so it will not give you the direction that way? Thank you for your videos

    I do not know about other features but driving mode voice assistant of Google maps should not be used because it breaks concentration thereby causing accidents sometimes, consumes more data and unnecessary feature in general because at the turns and divisions one can slow down and just check the map. So I stopped using it and so should you all to stop getting bored and irritated, running into troubles and getting disturbed by sudden unwanted voices in between the drive constantly. It's actually a waste of some additional data and behaving little machinistic for sometime without any reason to get bored and also meet with an accident.

Zooming in and out while driving is not the way to go. Sorry Google Map's programmers, this is a major "thumbs down" for you guys.

    We have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory sin is terrible because of sin we are separated from God but gladly here is the good news Jesus Christ came and walked this earth for everyone taught us the perfect way to live and how we should live and he died for our sins because we need a sacrifice to pay the price for our sins since our sins deserve hell if we live in sin but also more good news Jesus rose from the dead three days later we have to leave the sin behind and put it away and live new with Jesus this world is like a vapor it passes away but your eternity is forever and it is up to you what you want to do with it……

    The best would allow me to control what Google shoves in my face. I really don't need a popup showing my what business is at that location, That is what street view is for. I want to see the map not some morons idea of what THEY WANT TO SEE.. MapQuest is better.
