Google maps

[AC Question]

Hi I have the s7 edge with android 7.0 when I drupe to the left I've setup to see my calendar. I would like to be able to swipe to the right and have Google maps there with my current location is this possible?

Welcome to Android Central! Do you mean that you'd like a Google Maps widget? I don't believe one exists. You could consider something like Map Live Wallpaper.

Replied once but doesn't seem to be showing. Thanks but I think your suggestion would give a live map wallpaper to all my screens when I only want my location displayed on one of them

I would agree with @B. Diddy, I've never seen what you're looking for in a single swipe screen. You could have Maps running and access it via Recent button, but I don't know if that would keep up with a moving location, which is what I'm assuming you're looking for.

And, welcome as a new member!

Did a little digging -- although there is no official Google Maps widget, you could try MiniMap.

you could try MiniMap.

Great idea, going to try that myself. Good find!
