Save places in Maps on Mac

You can save places—such as a new place you want to try for lunch—so you can easily refer to them later. You can also add notes, visible only to you, to saved places.

Save a place

  1. Go to the Maps app on your Mac.

  2. Click the location you want to save on the map, then click the Add button near the bottom of the place card.

    Tip: To rename the place, scroll down in the place card, click Pin, then rename it.

To see your saved places, click Saved Places in the sidebar.

If you don’t see the sidebar, click the Sidebar button.

To easily revisit or share a location you’ve been to, sign in to the same Apple Account on your iPhone and Mac, then click Visited Places. (Not available in all countries and regions.) See View and manage Visited Places in the iPhone User Guide. Visited Places are end-to-end encrypted and cannot be read by Apple. See the Apple Maps & Privacy website.

Add notes about a place

  1. Go to the Maps app on your Mac.

  2. Click a place on the map, in the sidebar, or in your Saved Places.

  3. Near the bottom of the place card, click the More button, then click Add a Note.

  4. Write something, then click Done.

If it’s not already saved, adding a note adds a location to Saved Places.
