Actual result

• The action of touching the map can be observed by the user, but the information of a point, such as an address or a coordinate is not displayed.

• This issue does not occur while in desktop mode.

It appears that this issue also occurs on the Chrome browser, after all. Not sure if this is intended or not.

The same behavior can be observed in the EDGE browser as well.

Sounds like this is invalid then. Either a bug in google maps or intended behavior.
