Is it possible to search by coordinates?

Post by lloona
Hello,

Is it possible to enter somewhere the GPS coordinates of the place I am trying to reach?

Have you tried simply entering them into the search box?

Did you try them the other way around? (23.31977,42.71247)

Entering your coordinates the other way around in Google Maps also shows you something in Saudi Arabia.
