- makeitdouble 2y agoTIL. The weird part is Maps will accept them for search, but not display the plus code except when looking at POI (randomly selecting a point on the map doesn't show it for me, I only could get that from the /pluscodes/ map) This seems genuinely useful, but as usual we're having the chicken and egg problem to get it adopted ?
- solardev 2y agoIn mobile at least, you can touch and hold to make a red temporary POI that will show you the plus code. But yeah, nobody uses it in the real World. If I need to share a point with someone else I'll just send them the Google Maps share URL instead, which has its own shortcode
