GoToAppleMaps: Place Converter

An independent place-list converter that matches saved Google Maps locations to Apple Maps Guides and exports a backup.

Our take

Consider for moving a carefully reviewed saved-place collection

Takeout files, links and a Safari extension offer several import routes without manually rebuilding every place.

Keep in mind: Matching can be wrong, especially for coordinate-only pins; shared-list conversion is explicitly in beta. Preserve the original export.

What you can do

  • Import supported Takeout, CSV, KML or other listed files
  • Convert eligible place or list links
  • Review matches using Apple Maps search
  • Create Guides and a backup file

Good for

  • Users who can inspect matched places before deleting or replacing an original collection.

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting exact automatic transfer of all metadata or official Apple/Google support.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 26.0.
  • Matching can be wrong, especially for coordinate-only pins; shared-list conversion is explicitly in beta. Preserve the original export.

Privacy & permissions

The developer says Takeout files are processed on-device without an app account. Matching searches and shared Guides still have external-service implications.
