  1. What Makes What3words Better Than Google Maps • We all have found difficulty in locating someone through google maps. The reason behind it was the accuracy level of Google maps is not up to the mark, but in the world of technological developments, there is always a better technology that is developed to eradicate the problems of the world.https://a6norton.wordpress.com/2021/06/22/what-makes-what3words-better-than-google-maps/

  2. Maker of this amazing app and the idea • Chris Sheldrick is the creator of this famous app, who resides in the UK. Chris came up with the idea when he was fed up with the wrong location. If you live in a village and don’t have a location name, you can’t get your products delivered. But if you share a 3-word code with anyone, that person will reach you without any name. This idea further generated and what3words originated. • If you want to use this app, you can download it for free from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. Once the app is installed, you can generate a three-word code by entering your current location, your office, and your home address in the search bar and then share it with anyone at any time of need. Any user who clicks on that code will then directly show the option of Google Maps, City Mapper, or Wedge. In this case, it will reach you without any difficulty with the help of any map tracking app. You can also use the voice feature in the app and choose the language you want.https://a6norton.wordpress.com/2021/06/22/what-makes-what3words-better-than-google-maps/

  3. Why what3words is the talk of the town? • The most important purpose of this app is that if you’re trapped somewhere, and you need help or want to meet someone on the beach or park, it will generate the perfect 3-word code for your friend or relative so that anyone will reach exactly where you’re waiting for it. Those who get your location can exactly reach your location. • To use this app, you just have to simply enter a place name or street address in the search bar and select the correct result, now switch to the satellite mode and zoom in up to the extent when you are able to see the grid, then tap on a square to view its what3word address.https://a6norton.wordpress.com/2021/06/22/what-makes-what3words-better-than-google-maps/

  4. Useful yet controversial • There are many controversies about the app now. Many emergency services use this app. People found that the app has the same code for many three words combinations which creates a problem to locate someone during help. That is, if they have to reach the X location, they have many similar locations associated with X so that they do not reach the right location and help people. On this, Chris Sheldrick, head of the company, said that the surrounding words might be the same, which can cause confusion, but this happens very rarely.https://a6norton.wordpress.com/2021/06/22/what-makes-what3words-better-than-google-maps/
