Google Search Maps Button

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

Features & Capabilities

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.

User Reviews

Most reviews say the add-on delivers the Maps button as advertised and works well when functioning. However, several users report reliability problems (not working recently) and multiple UI/UX drawbacks, including German localization glitches, the button’s positioning interfering with searches, and an intrusive overlay. The strongest recurring points are: functionality when working, general positive sentiment, and notable stability and UI concerns.
Pros
  • Does exactly what it promises by adding a Google Maps button to the search options.
  • When it works, it is reported as working perfectly / reliably.
  • Positive overall sentiment with praise and appreciation (e.g., "BRAVO", thank you).
Cons
  • Stability issues: it sometimes stops working or stops functioning.
  • Localization/UI bug in German: incorrect button placement when UI language is German.
  • UI/UX interference: the Maps button can occupy the 2nd position and disrupt normal search flow (e.g., interfering with selecting Images).
  • Visual intrusion: an obtrusive white Maps button overlay on images.

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Google Search Maps Button requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
