Hi @MIA27,

If the lat and long are correctly entered by the user, you can actually just add them as text (no EncodeURL or value needed).
In your case it would look as follows:
Launch($"https://maps.google.com/?q={DataCardValue16.Text},{DataCardValue18.Text}");

If this solves your question, would you be so kind as to accept it as a solution.
Thanks!
