The new Google My Business app helps SMBs list their businesses on Google Search and Maps

Google has launched a completely new and redesigned Google My Business app that helps small and medium businesses to keep their presence up-to-date on Google Search and Google Maps.

The free app offers a simple and intuitive way for businesses to update their profile, converse with customers, and attract new ones. There are several new features like:

• A new post button that allows you to upload a photo, create an offer or an event, and add it to profile.
• From the profile tab, businesses can also manage their information and watch edits appear real-time across Search and Maps.
• Through the updated customer tab, businesses can connect with customers, reply to reviews, and receive messages, all in one place.
• With the new bottom navigation bar, businesses can track the results.

The Google My Business app is available for both Android and iOS. The app is a part of Google India’s continued efforts towards enabling businesses in India to grow online. Last year, Google announced its Digital Unlocked initiative that is designed to empower SMBs with digital skills and also launched Primer, a free mobile app designed to teach digital marketing skills to business owners.
