Some features, like the 3D view, don't work in the offline downloaded maps, but for just getting around when you're traveling, Windows 10's offline maps can be very helpful. So it's just simpler to do it from the system Settings app.Īfter downloading the offline maps, you'll be able to use them in the Maps app even when you're in a location without internet. In the app, a P icon will appear alongside a note that says "You parked near here." To get rid of it, tap the P and select Clear.You can also do this from the settings menu of the Maps app itself, but it's an extra step and the downloads won't start until you close the Maps app. In the pop-up, tap Set as parking location. On iOS (above), tap the little blue location dot within the app when you arrive at a location. Or tap "You parked here" on the map, select More Info on the bottom left and tap Clear.

Or tap Driving down below, and look for Saved parking. To find it later, tap the search bar up top and select Parking location. You can also set meter reminders, add a photo of where you parked, and send your parking location to friends. Tap that to add details like parking garage level and spot or the amount of time left before a meter expires. On Android, tap the blue location dot and select Save your parking, which will add a label to the Maps app, identifying where you parked.
