Storing GPS locations can usually be allowed when taking photos with a phone. To find photos by location a Photos user should click on the search icon which offers multiple ways to search your collection. The map feature is enclosed in the red square in the following image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"497\" height=\"951\" data-attachment-id=\"5795\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/2020\/06\/30\/map-google-photos\/blurphoto\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blurphoto.png\" data-orig-size=\"497,951\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"blurphoto\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blurphoto.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blurphoto.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blurphoto.png 497w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blurphoto-157x300.png 157w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 497px) 100vw, 497px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heat map<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"659\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"5793\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/2020\/06\/30\/map-google-photos\/googleheat\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat.png\" data-orig-size=\"864,1342\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"googleheat\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat-659x1024.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat-659x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat-659x1024.png 659w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat-193x300.png 193w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat-768x1193.png 768w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/googleheat.png 864w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Selecting &#8220;explore map&#8221; offers a map of the world with the areas associated with photos you have taken heat mapped.
