Google Maps: great for saving, limited for organising
Google Maps excels at finding a place and saving it in one tap. But its lists stay as columns of names: no overview on the map, no filter by type, no multi-stop itinerary planning.
MyFavsMap: see, filter and plan
MyFavsMap imports your Google Maps places and shows them all on an interactive map. You filter by category, search, build optimised itineraries, keep a travel journal and share public lists — in five languages, installable like an app.

Do you have to choose? No — use both
The best flow: save on the go in Google Maps, then import everything into MyFavsMap to visualise, organise and plan. The two tools are complementary, not competitors.
