Alternatives for Google Maps multipoint routing feature

When Google Maps launched its Beta version amid its I/O developer conference in May, Google puzzled its users by leaving out some of the most important features such as multipoint routing. 

On the one hand, the new Google Maps for the desktop offers a new interface with vector-based map, higher quality images and personalization. For example, based on your usage and preference, Maps only highlights the streets, landmarks and local hot spots you need to know about. 

On the other hand, Maps fans are frustrated that they cannot plan their multi point destinations trip, the strongest selling point Google Maps has over its competitors. As one user put it on Twitter, “[Google Maps is] missing about 50% of the features of the old google maps like multi-point routing.”

Though most people believe Google will bring back this feature, Google has not responded regarding this matter. In the meantime, for the Google Maps users out there, try these following options:

  • Revert back to the old Google Maps: you can revert to the old Google Maps by following the instruction here.
  • Other mapping sites like Bing Maps, AOL’s MapQuest or Yahoo Maps

And for users who need the Maps to plan and optimize your daily route, no need to worry, Badger Map’s multipoint routing feature is here to stay!
