You can now explore your saved lists and locations in Google Maps, making it simpler than ever to find that great place you marked weeks ago.

As noted by [9to5Google](https://9to5google.com/2024/12/16/google-saved-search/), Google’s “Saved” feature has received an enhancement with a search capability. This allows you to browse through bookmarked websites, Discover tabs, and saved places in Maps. Whether you’ve been saving popular cafes, restaurants, bookstores, craft stores, or any other favorite venues, they’re all now searchable. It’s quite surprising that it took so long for the *search* leader to introduce such a function.

Utilizing the new search feature is easy. Just navigate to your “Saved” section in Google Maps and tap the magnifying glass icon to begin your search.

If you haven’t been using Google’s “Saved” section yet — as the author of this article openly admits to not doing — now could be the ideal moment to begin. [How-To Geek](https://www.yahoo.com/tech/google-maps-saved-locations-handiest-170013473.html) has an informative guide on the benefits of this feature. Essentially, it enables you to create a virtual Rolodex of your favorite places, destinations you wish to explore, and more. You can even organize personalized lists, like “Favorite Taco Joints,” and keep them accessible whenever you need — no need to depend on your memory.

With the introduction of search functionality, these lists have just become even more useful.
