Map Multiple Addresses On Your iPhone With Google Maps

You can map multiple addresses on you iPhone using Google Maps in three easy steps.  First create a Google Map on your desktop or laptop.  Second, email that map to yourself.  Third, check your email on your iPhone and click on the link for the map you created.

It takes a little planning in order to map multiple addresses on your iPhone but it might save you time in the long run.  One tip I have learned is to always put the zip code or city/state in the map that you created.  Even though the map looks good on the desktop, without the zip code the iPhone map might not be able to find the correct address.

There are several tools available online to map multiple addresses.

image MultiPlottr is a free tool that creates a map with multiple addresses.  MultiPlottr is really useful becuase not only can it map multiple addresses, but you can label and color code each address and marker.

image Batchgeo creates a map from an excel spreadsheet.  Just copy and paste your data from an excel spreadsheet (or you can use their template), validate the data, and press the map now button. Batchgeo is free to use.

image gmaps.kaeding.name created a free tool for mapping multiple addresses.  Just ender the addresses, one per line, in the form on the website and press submit.

Do you plan out your routes before an real estate appraisal?

Bryan, does this work for other phones? I have a Google phone and I can’t imagine it wouldn’t work, but do you know? Great video. Thanks.

I have not got an iphone but will probably in the near future, this will be very handy to know when I do. I have been trying to keep a “map log” of my work so that I can visually know if I have done work in an area (these days I forget exact properties I have appraised-go figure) so knowing I can export the addresses from excel is nice to know. Thanks for the tips.

Ryan, I do not know if it works but I can’t imagine that it wouldn’t work on your Google Phone. Let me know if you try it on your phone!

Thanks Bryan. I’ll keep you posted.

Tom, Somehow I missed your comment about this. I have an excel spreadsheet with my log as well. I think the “map log” is a great idea!
