Open Google Maps, go to Your contributions → Reviews, and view every Google review you’ve posted from your signed-in account.
You’ve posted ratings and write-ups across places, and now you want them in one spot. The path lives inside Google Maps—on desktop and phone—and it takes seconds once you’re in the right account.
Find The Google Reviews You Posted: Desktop And Phone
Use the same Google account you used when writing those ratings. Then follow the paths below to open the full list fast.
Quick Paths By Device
| Device | Menu Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Computer | Google Maps → menu ☰ → Your contributions → Reviews | Opens a list with newest first. |
| Android | Maps app → your photo → Your profile → Reviews | Same list with edit and share options. |
| iPhone/iPad | Maps app → your photo → Your profile → Reviews | iOS layout, same actions. |
Step-By-Step On A Computer
Open Google Maps in a browser and sign in. Click the menu ☰. Choose “Your contributions,” then the “Reviews” tab. Your posts appear with place names, dates, stars, and any photos attached. Use the three-dot menu on any card to edit, delete, or share.
On Android
Open the Maps app, tap your profile photo, pick “Your profile,” then the “Reviews” tab. Tap any item to expand, copy a link, or make a change.
On iPhone Or iPad
Launch Maps, tap your profile photo, pick “Your profile,” then “Reviews.” The feed mirrors desktop, sorted by most recent.
What You Can Do From The Reviews List
From that list you can edit text, change the star rating, remove a photo, or delete a post entirely. You can also share a direct link to a single item.
Public visibility applies to every post on Maps. Your display name appears with the review, and other contributions tied to your profile can be visible. Anonymous posting isn’t available.
Best Practices For Clear, Helpful Posts
Keep each rating honest and tied to a real visit. Add a photo when it helps others choose, like a clear shot of a menu board, parking, or accessibility details. Skip private info, faces without permission, or order numbers that trace back to you.
When a place fixes an issue you mentioned, update your text so readers get the current picture. Short, direct lines work better than long blocks.
Link And Export Options
If you want a friend or a business to see a single post, open it from your list and use Share. That link jumps to your text on the place page.
For a personal archive, use Google’s data exporter to download account data. Pick the Maps items you need and generate a file you can store with backups. Download your data. The export process does not delete anything from Google’s servers.

Where Your Posts Appear Across Google
Reviews are tied to place pages in Maps and surface in your profile’s Contributions as a running list. You’ll also see email alerts when an owner replies. When a shop closes or merges into a new page, your text can move under the updated listing.
Tips For Finding Lost Posts
Switch To The Right Account
Many people write from more than one Google login. Switch accounts in Maps, reopen Your profile, and check the list again. That solves most missing-item cases.
Refresh The App Or Browser
If the list stalls or looks empty, refresh, sign out and back in, or update Maps to the latest release. A clean sign-in often restores the feed.
Open The Place Page
Search the place by name, open its page, and scroll to its reviews. Your own post will display your name and an Edit option when you are signed in.
Simple Workflow For Regular Check-Ins
Save time with a monthly sweep. Open the Reviews tab, scan the last ten entries, fix typos, add missing photos, and remove anything you no longer stand by. That small cadence keeps your profile tidy and helpful.
If you edit a post, Maps records the latest edit date, and that date shows in your feed.
What Others See On Your Profile
Anyone can open your public profile and scroll through contributions. The name shown comes from your About Me page, and reviews are public by design.
Sign-In And Account Hygiene
Keep one primary Google login for Maps contributions. If you need a second login for work, post from the same one each time when you want a single, clean history. That habit avoids split lists that force you to hunt.
On desktop you can see which login is active by clicking the profile photo at the top right. On mobile, the same photo opens the switcher. Pick the address that matches the address in your review emails. Then reopen your list and check again.
Editing Without Losing The Message
Good edits keep the core visit, improve clarity, and note any changes the place made. If you fix a typo, keep the rest intact. If the business solved a problem, say so in one line near the top so readers see it early.
When you change a review, the feed shows the latest edit date. That helps readers know the timing of your info when they compare posts.
Photos, Videos, And Captions
Media can make a simple line far more useful. A crisp shot of an entree, a wheelchair ramp, a cramped aisle, or a clear price board tells more than a paragraph. Add only what you captured yourself and avoid faces or plates that reveal private data.
If you added a photo by mistake, open the item, remove the image, and save. Pair a short caption with a photo when the picture needs context like portion size or wait time.
Sharing Your Posts
Businesses often ask for a link to a customer story. From your list, open the item and use Share. That link lands on the place page with your text in view. If a friend taps it on a phone, the Maps app opens to the right spot.
Keep A Personal Record
If you want a history you control, export account data a few times per year. Store the file with your regular backups. If you ever change phones or clean an inbox, that archive preserves a record of places, stars, and text you wrote. Google’s exporter handles that.
Respectful, Useful Writing
Write as if a friend will use your note to decide where to go tonight. Mention what you ordered, time of day, wait time, noise level, seating, and payment methods. Avoid insults, private info, or hearsay. Point out wins and misses in plain language.
Neutral tone reads better and draws helpful owner replies. If a manager responds with a fix, edit your text so others see the updated state.
Desktop Vs. Phone: When Each Is Better
Use a computer when you want to scan a long history, paste from notes, or manage several edits in a row. The bigger screen makes it easier to jump between cards and open place pages in new tabs.
Phones shine when you need to fix a typo on the go, upload a photo you just took, or share a link while you’re still nearby. The device tabs mirror each other, so switching between them stays simple.
What If A Place No Longer Exists?
When a listing is removed or replaced, open Maps and search for an updated page. Chains sometimes roll many stores into a single profile or rename a location after a move. Your text often travels with the new page, so check there first.
A Simple Checklist For Each New Post
1) Add a clear star rating that matches your experience. 2) In one line, say what you ordered or did. 3) Note one detail others care about, like parking, restroom access, or Wi-Fi. 4) Add one photo that proves the point. 5) Revisit later if anything changes.
Keep Your Data Safe And Private
Reviews are public, so write with the same care you’d use on a postcard. Skip phone numbers, license plates, booking codes, or details that identify another guest. If you need to reference a staff member, use a role like “server” or “manager” rather than a full name. Clear, impersonal notes protect you and still help readers make a decision.
If you ever change the name on your Google profile, that new name will appear with future posts. Older items keep the history of what you wrote, and you can still edit or delete them from the same list. That keeps your timeline intact while giving you control over today’s presence.
Keep the tone fair, stick to facts from your visit, and your profile stays useful over time.
