[SOLVED!] How to IMPORT YOUR SAVED PLACES from Google Maps to My Maps

[@ioriamt9774]

I need to do the opposite.... any advice? any way to do it?

[@Marcus_PG]

Really good video - well explained and not too fast. I'm new to My Maps and am watching this in 2022 and it doesn't seem that the bright sparks at Google have made this easier. I would have thought it would make sense for My Maps and Google maps work much better together as many people will have hundreds of places they've used on Google maps over the years.

Very... very useful your explanations. Thank you for taking the time for make this video. Regards from Medellín - Colombia.

this is ridiculous (not you or your video) when is Google going to make this an easy and smooth procedure? after all it's their maps, their files, etc.
what is the point of not being able to see what you saved on Google maps?
The route planning is annoying enough, it needs to be improved and include my saved places!! This is very obvious and logical , I just can't believe it doesn't exist!

[@blackspring09]

Thank you soooo much!!! This really helped me out transferring a bunch of saved waypoints from a recent hike that would be impossible to find on My Maps without importing. Profoundly grateful :)

SAVED ME SO MUCH, thanks!! love from Singapore

[@playxbunnyxstud]

thanks for this! not sure if you've already found it, but i figured out how to add your custom lists as well.

[@LouisGins]

hello, could you explain how you did it?

[@qianying1967]

How can i do this?

[@mortenkrogsrud4467]

Helpful, but how to do it the other way? I have a My map with stored places and want to add them as favourites in my default googlemaps

[@howtube7]

I don't believe you can do so. You can only transfer them from google maps to my maps.

Awesome this is just what I was looking for, Thank you

Thanks for the video, its pretty unbelievable the halfwits at Google haven't synchronized my maps with google maps to make your pinned locations available straight away.

[@nazigol289]

the problem is u have to delete ur previous starred files in order not to get mixed with the places u want so is useless. what abbot saving a category?

[@howtube7]

This is useful when you want to transfer all of your saved places. You can delete the ones you don't want very easily.

[@alexwilson7235]

Thank you so much you saved my life

[@theorionarchive]

Thanks for the video. Is there a way to copy my custom list of saved places into the "starred places" category so that I can follow your tutorial?

[@howtube7]

You're welcome. Unfortunately, you have to go through your saved places manually and mark them as starred so they can display on My Maps. There is no way you can convert them into starred, which I really wanted to do in the past.
