This feature allows users to search for places through conversation within the app. This feature is different from normal search, because in this you can directly ask questions according to your need and mood.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, people are not just looking for keywords like &#8216;restaurant near me&#8217;, but looking for specific experiences &#8211; like a quiet place, a location to take photos or a good route to travel. Keeping this need in mind, Google has introduced this AI-based feature, which gives more personal and smart results.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Ask Maps feature?<br \/><\/strong>Ask Maps is a conversational search feature that uses AI and real-time data. It combines information like community reviews, popular times, and local events to provide the right recommendations to the user. In this you get the experience of a chatbox like Gemini, where you can ask questions by typing or speaking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to use?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol class=\"ol_block\">\n<li>Open Google Maps app<\/li>\n<li>Tap on &#8216;Ask&#8217; button<\/li>\n<li>Write or speak your question in the chatbox<\/li>\n<li>You will get instant suggestions<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>What can you ask?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol class=\"ol_block\">\n<li>Where to find a quiet and less crowded place<\/li>\n<li>Best location to take photos<\/li>\n<li>walking route that is beautiful<\/li>\n<li>Complete plan for travel<\/li>\n<li>Best restaurant to eat<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Why is this feature special?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>Yat,.<\/b>This feature does not just search, but gives results after understanding your choice, time and location. This gives users a more personal and better experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What to expect next?<\/strong><br \/>The Ask Maps feature shows that Google Maps is no longer just a navigation app, but is becoming a smart travel and exploration tool. More advanced AI features may be added to it in the coming time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 atawrap\">\n<h2 class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 atahead\">About the Author<\/h2>\n<div class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899\">\n<div style=\"min-height:52px;margin:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" alt=\"authoring\" title=\"authoring\" width=\"52\" height=\"52\" class=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hindi.news18.com\/byline\/afreen-277.html\" class=\"jsx-5d5943d0494ab899 atamail\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Afreen Afaq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Afreen Afaq has started her career with Network 18 as a Tech Journalist, and has more than six years experience in &#8216;Mobile-Technology&#8217; beat.
