Many people forget where they park their car, especially in big parking areas, malls, or crowded streets. This can be frustrating and time-consuming. Instead of guessing or walking around, you can use Google Maps to save your parking spot and find it easily later.
Save Your Parking Spot in One Tap
After parking your car, open Google Maps on your phone. You will see a blue dot that shows where you are. Tap on this dot and choose the option to save your parking location. That’s it.
Google Maps will place a marker on the map where your car is parked. You don’t need to remember anything. The app will keep the location saved for you.
Find Your Car
When you want to return to your car, open Google Maps again. Look for the saved parking marker and tap on it. Then select directions. Google Maps will guide you back step by step.
This is very useful in large parking lots, busy city areas, or places you visit for the first time. You won’t waste time walking in the wrong direction.
Works on Android and iPhone
This feature works on both Android phones and iPhones. The saved parking spot stays on the map until you remove it or start driving again. You can also move the marker if it is not placed correctly.
You can even share the parking location with someone else. This helps if another person needs to find the car.
Saves Time
Google Maps is not just for directions. Small features like saving your parking spot make everyday life easier. It takes only a few seconds but saves a lot of stress later.
Next time you park your car, use Google Maps.
Meanwhile, Google Maps rolled out 10 new features for users in India, bringing a mix of Gemini-powered AI tools, enhanced safety alerts, disruption updates, and support for additional travel options.
Google also added proactive local recommendations, an extension of the AI-driven Inspirations feature introduced last year. While a few of these updates were unveiled in the US earlier this week, India is the first country where they are being expanded beyond the American market.
