How to Zoom in on Google Maps on Android

Open Google Maps on your Android. It’s the map icon with a white “G” and red pushpin. You’ll usually find it in the app drawer.

Go to the location on which you want to zoom. You can type the location into the search bar and then select it from the search results.

Place two fingers together on the screen and then spread them apart. As you spread your fingers apart, the map will zoom in to the location. To zoom back out, pinch your fingers together on the screen.
