"Hey dude,Mike Horner Archives where's my car" -- never again will you have to utter these words, courtesy of a new Google Maps feature that lets you save your parking location on a map.
Originally launched as part of a Google Maps beta (and only on Android) in March 2017, the feature just went live on Android and iOS.

You can even add a note to give yourself more precise instructions for later, add a timer (with a 15-minute reminder), send your parking location to a friend or save an image of the spot.

To get the new feature, just upgrade your Maps on Android or iOS to the latest version. The app is available here on Android and iOS.
