To send something you've found on Google Maps to your phone:

  1. Click the link icon in the left panel.
  2. Click Send.
  3. Choose Phone from the left side.
  4. Enter the required information and hit Send. You'll receive a text message with your selection.

Tip: You can also send a local search result to your phone, by clicking More > Send from the place marker's location info window:

Send local search

Google Send to Phone works with all major US mobile providers. Sending a message via Google is free, but your carrier may charge a fee to send and receive text messages. Check with your carrier to find out if you're subject to such a charge.

Tip: The Google Chrome to Phone Extension enables you to send links and other information from Chrome to your Android device. Download it for free at the Google Chrome Webstore.
