Google Maps is the most popular turn-by-turn navigation app for Android and iOS. It helps people in several ways in their daily life. For example, you can set your Home and Work address on Google Maps to assist in your daily commute. It will help you to know the traffic conditions on roads, the fastest route to take, when to leave home or workplace, and other information with a few taps.
If you have changed your home or workplace address, you need to change the same on your Google Maps. Otherwise, you will get the wrong assistance if you use Maps for your commute. The good news is that changing home and workplace addresses are a simple process. Here is how it is.
