Google My Business offers more flexibility with business hours

Check your Google My Business console to set your “more hours” to reflect COVID-19 precautions.

You can now set up “more hours” in Google My Business with special times for seniors, pickup, kitchen, and more. You can even set these hours by day of the week and multiple times per day.

  2. Click Info.
  3. Next to “More hours” click Edit Edit pencil.
  4. In the “More hours” box under “Add hours,” click on the type of hours that are applicable.
  5. Next to the day of the week you want to change, check the box and enter your hours.
  6. After you entered all hours, click Apply.

Why we care. This should give many businesses the flexibility they need to reflect changes to their business hours for COVID-19. Stores and supermarkets that offer special hours of senior citizens, for example, will now be able to communicate that in their Google local listings.
