Search for a place by name
Find a place by its name, without knowing the address.
Maps holds the name of nearly every business, park and clinic in the country. Typing the name finds the place.
You do not need the street or the number. Maps fills those in for you.
Key points
- Maps finds places by name, not only by address
- The address arrives with the result
What to remember
- A name, or even a category, is enough to search with.
- Search the name. The address comes with it.
Try this
Open Maps and type the name of your pharmacy. See what comes back.
