Google Search Maps Button

Adds back the Maps button to Google search pages and makes the map images clickable again for seamless navigation.

The Google Search Maps Button Chrome extension brings back the beloved Google Maps button in the Google Search navigation bar, especially for users in Europe affected by recent changes. By restoring this shortcut, the extension ensures you get one-click access to Google Maps directly from your search results, making location navigation smoother and more efficient.

Additionally, it enhances usability by making map images within search results clickable once again, providing an intuitive and seamless browsing experience. Compliant with privacy standards, the extension does not save any personal data, prioritizing your security. If you’ve noticed the Maps button missing from your Google Search, this tool is your easy and reliable solution to restore the convenience you previously enjoyed.

User reviews

Users find the Google Search Maps Button add-on effective and reliable, enhancing Google Search with a convenient Maps tab. It outperforms similar extensions and is especially valued by users in the EU.
