Yes App Inventor users can use Google maps using the WebViewer. AI2 has a Map component that uses OpenStreetMap ( OSM ) map tiles.

What you do depends on what you want. Here are the community discussions https://community-appinventor-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/search?q=maps

Many thanks again. I have reproduced the blocks in that last example, and I am stuck on the very last part. The facility to join gives me two join slots. How can I get it to 3?

I've got that now. Used the star on the block to get settings! But my map is not the local one. It is the Cambridge (Mass?) one

Got it now! I had a blank spacer between latitude and longitude instead of a comma! Many thanks Steve! All OK now!
