If you've changed jobs, moved offices, or simply want to update your saved address, you can edit your Work location in just a few taps. This guide explains how to change your work location on Google Maps on Android, iPhone, and desktop.

How We Tested
Need to change your Work location quickly?
Open “Google Maps” > “Saved” > “Labeled” > “Work”, enter your new work address, and save the changes.
The steps are almost identical on Android, iPhone, and the Google Maps web version. If you only want to change your live GPS location instead of your saved Work address, skip to Bonus Method.
Google Maps is the default mapping app for Android devices to get detailed information about locations, traffic conditions, routes for buses, and more. It is preinstalled on your Android phone to check and manage various addresses.
When you want to change your work location on Google Maps to get more precise estimates for your daily commute or improved recommendations, you can follow the guide below.

In the Settings interface, tap Edit home or work under the Account Settings section.

Can I change the icon for my work location on Google Maps?
Yes, Google Maps allows you to select your preferred icon for the work or home address. Open the Maps app and go to Saved. Tap Labeled to access your work location. Tap the More icon next to the Work option and choose the Change icon option. You can then select a new icon for this work address. Tap Save to update the address icon on Google Maps.
How can I add multiple work addresses on Google Maps?
Google Maps doesn't allow you to add a second address for your work or home. However, you can label different locations for multiple workplaces. For instance, you can add labels like Work 1, Work 2, and Work 3 to locate them on Google Maps quickly. What’s more, you can use third-party mapping apps to store multiple work addresses.
Does changing my Work location affect my Google Maps history?
No. Changing your Work address only updates the saved destination in your Google account. It does not delete your navigation history, Timeline, or previously searched places.

Changing your Work location on Google Maps only takes a few minutes, whether you're using Android, iPhone, or a computer.
If you simply need to update your saved Work address, the built-in Google Maps feature is all you need.
