Google Maps Deep Link Generator
Turn a place or location URL into a deeplink that opens in the Google Maps app, with navigation one tap away instead of a browser map.
A shop, venue, or event that shares a Google Maps link on Instagram or WhatsApp sends customers into a browser map — slow, missing their saved places, and with no easy route to Start navigation. This Google Maps deep link generator opens the location in the Maps app where directions are immediate.
How to create your deep link
- 1Copy your place link from Google Maps (Share gives you a maps.app.goo.gl link).
- 2Paste it above and tap Generate Smart Link.
- 3Share the deeplink in your bio, event page, WhatsApp broadcast, or booking confirmation.
Place links and Maps short links
maps.app.goo.gl short links and full google.com/maps place URLs are both supported. On Android an intent opens the installed Google Maps app with a browser fallback; on iPhone the link escapes to Safari, where the Maps Universal Link opens the app.
Navigation is the whole point of the tap
Nobody opens a location link to look at a map. They open it to work out how to get there. The browser version makes them tap through to the app anyway, and every extra step is somewhere they can give up before they arrive.
Useful for shops, venues, and events
Put the deeplink in your Instagram bio, on your event page, or in the booking confirmation you send. Free and unlimited.
