Google My Business App No Longer Available Anymore

We knew that when Google rebranded Google My Business to Google Business Profile that Google will be doing away with the Google My Business App. And now that day has come – the Google My Business app is no longer available.

That is the message you see when you try to open the Google My Business App on your phone. Google says you can “manager your business profile, view your performance, and connect with customers directly on Google Maps & Search. Get notifications on Google Maps.”

Here is a screenshot from George on Twitter but I see the same thing:

Also, later last night, Google began emailing businesses, like mine, a notification saying “RustyBrick, Inc., beginning July 2022, the Google My Business mobile app will no longer be available, and the Google Maps app will be the best place for replying to customer messages on mobile. Turn on your notifications to ensure you’re notified by email and Google Maps push notifications for new incoming messages. You can also respond to messages from your Business Profile on Google Search.”

I randomly use the app and I think many small businesses do as well, but again, we knew this change was coming, and here it is.

As Google Lens becomes more and more popular, SEOs are asking, will we be able to see what traffic we get from Google Lens in Google Search Console? The answer is that Google Search Console currently does not support showing Google Lens traffic or data and likely won’t in the foreseeable future.

John Mueller of Google was asked about this and he said on Twitter “Regarding Search Console, my feeling is it would need to be in a separate report, and Lens is probably still too new to be in a place where it won’t change significantly. John did add that this is “something Search Console can report on in the same way for the long term.”

Here are those tweets in context:

There’s nothing currently in Search Console to cover that. Are you finding Lens useful as a user? I’ve found myself using it more & more :-). What would help you in Search Console for it?

Regarding Search Console, my feeling is it would need to be in a separate report, and Lens is probably still too new to be in a place where it won’t change significantly (=something Search Console can report on in the same way for the long term).
