Google Maps could give Ask Maps a key chat-sharing upgrade

Ask Maps in Google Maps could let you share entire conversations via a link, similar to the Gemini app.

Users can currently copy and paste an Ask Maps response, but this method omits crucial URLs.

We’re also seeing early evidence that suggests Ask Maps could be renamed to Ask and moved to the app’s search bar.

It taps into Gemini to answer questions about a specific place, find the best restaurants in that area, and more, all in a familiar chatbot-style experience. One particular shortcoming of Ask Maps, though, is that it doesn’t let you share a link to the conversation. However, Google may change that in a forthcoming update.
