Sync Maps From Google To Mobile

Written by Ironpaper | Dec 3, 2009 5:15:38 AM

A new feature in the Google maps service will allow users to sync their online favorite maps with their Symbian and Windows phones.

Both the online map service and the mobile map service from Google would allow users to star (or rate) their favorite maps. The starred maps however could never be sharred between platforms. This has changed. The rating function has now been integrated and is cross platform.

One of the potential uses that this new function provides is to allow users who look up a map of a restaurant they want to go to, and before they run out the door, quickly sync the map with their mobile device.
