The easier way to open Google Maps is by adding this extension called App Launcher for Google
Maps to your Chrome browser. It allows users to open Google Maps that is separate from a browser
tab or window, as if you are opening Google Maps individually as an app.

Maps. It does also loads faster than you normally loading Google Maps from a browser window.
The main functionality of the app is to launch Google Maps. So, it supports everything the standard
Google Maps does.

1. Open Google Chrome and go to this page (Update: It seems the developer has removed the
extension from Chrome store. For now, try the alternative below or use Google Maps on your
mobile phone to download offline maps).
2. Click on Add to Chrome button to add App Launcher for Google Maps extension to your
Chrome browser.
