Restore Google Maps Button in Firefox
The Google Search Maps Button is a Firefox add-on designed to restore the missing Google Maps button from the Google Search navigation bar for users in Europe. This add-on provides one-click access to Google Maps directly from the search results page, enhancing user experience. Additionally, it makes map images within the search results clickable, improving navigation efficiency for users who rely on Google Maps for location-based searches.
This tool was developed in response to the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which removed the Google Maps shortcut for European users. It prioritizes user privacy by not saving any personal data. The add-on also includes troubleshooting steps to ensure functionality, such as verifying plugin status and checking permissions on Google domains. This makes it a practical solution for users wanting to reintegrate a vital feature back into their browsing routine.
