Google Maps adds group planning feature
Group dinners can be a drag. Not because your friends and family are terrible, but because deciding on a place to go can be such a struggle.
But in Google's latest move that encroaches on Yelp, Google Maps will now let you decide where to eat out with a shareable list of restaurants, bars, or clubs to choose from — whether it's a birthday dinner or ladies night out.
SEE ALSO:Google Maps can now share your battery level with friendsStarting Wednesday, Google Maps will let users add restaurant options to a list that can be shared via any messaging platform. Others in the group message can add or remove ideas and vote on favorite places in the list -- all within Google Maps on Android or iOS.
The new feature is available in the latest app update. Once the newest version of Google Maps is downloaded, long-pressing any place in the app will add that place to a shareable list.
Here's what the in-app list looks like. Notice that it includes "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" icons so that you friends can vote on each proposed dining option.
