Dropping a pin on Google Maps is the same, whether you’re using an iPhone or an Android phone.
What you have to do is:
Open the Google Maps app.
Find the location where you want to drop the pin and zoom in so you can see it.
Tap and hold the spot where you want the pin dropped until you see a pin appear under your finger.

On mobile devices (including iPhone, iPad and Android phones), you can use the search bar to drop pins.
With any of the pinned locations, it’s possible to save them as starred or flagged locations.
This lets you find them again later on.
It’s a great way to mark destinations that you’d like to visit, or maybe where you left your car parked.
