Save Your Parking Location in Google Maps

1. Once you’ve parked your car safely, open up the Google Maps App

Suppose we had just parked our car on Stewart Street, Richmond (for the sake of this exercise, lets pretend this is a new unfamiliar area to us! =P)

2. In Google Maps, tap on the location icon (bottom right) to find your current location

3. A blue dot marks your current location

4. Tap on this blue dot, and a menu appears

5. Tap on Set as parking location 

By Setting your parking location, the blue dot is labelled “You parked here“Down the bottom of your screen, you’ll notice a label which says “Saved Parking”

When its time to head back to your car park location, tap on the Saved Parking button, and Google Maps will direct you back to your car!
You can even choose which mode of transport to get there: car, walk, bike rideLuckily, I parked a a short stroll away for this exercise!
