Every day, thousands of roads are created all over the world. Google Maps aims to help you get to where you’re going wherever you are, so we created a new way for you to add these new roads on Maps.

With an Android device, you can now draw roads on the map simply by tapping. Plus, you’ll earn 15 Local Guides points for each missing road you add!

Adding roads helps with navigation, but also makes it possible for others to add more places and information on the map. Entire communities could grow on the map from a single road contribution.

Here’s how to draw a missing road on Google Maps.

Make sure you have the latest version of the Google Maps app Go to the location where the missing road should appear Tap the menu Send feedback Tap Missing road Move the map so the marker is on the missing road Add the name of the road and any additional information Tap Send
