You apparently haven't saved Places in Google Maps. It was listed as MY MAPS in your layers. This feature has been removed. I'm reverting to 6.14.4. Let me know when MY MAPS returns to Google Maps. They should not have released a new map until it was ready. I have numerous locations saved and I can't access them with this new "downgrade". The description you provided is just your history of searches.

Well, I see that you've meant places saved in Google Maps on a browser (on PC etc.) for to find them on My Maps in the app of Google Maps.

What I've meant is places saved in the app of Google Maps :) (starred places).
These starred places I find with this person icon.

BTW, until Google will give back My Maps you might export your places from Maps (on the browser) as KML and import them as POI's in a GPS app.

I think I'll just use 6.14.4. I won't update until they repair google maps and My Maps is available.
 
The Google maps update has created a lot of pushback. Make sure you contact Google through Play Store or directly to voice your opinion. This update looks and acts like a beta -- which means Google is testing the app. Let them know what is good and what sucks.

You do know they do not recommend that you use it "on the fly"... that is a hazard as dangerous as texting while driving.

I guess "on the fly" is a misleading statement... I DO pull over each time I input a new address as I'm on residential streets when I change destinations. It still requires several additional steps to input addresses. THAT is my point.

Agreed, and that is why I hate it as well.
