I've just installed QGIS 3.2.2 and after installation, tried to use the Plug in Manager to install the OpenLayers plugin. But it's not in the list to install.

Any ideas?

The OpenLayers Plugin is deprecated.

It is recommended to use QuickMapServices or QGIS core functionality instead of OpenLayers Plugin because the latter has many issues. One very famous issue is the projection.

You need to check Show also experimental plugin from the Plugin manager -> Settings because OpenLayers Plugin is listed under experimental plugins.

  • The QuickMapServices plugin doesn't have Google Maps.

    @DonnyV. Use Search QMS and write Google in the search bar, and your will get Google Maps.

I am using QGIS 3.10. On the menu bar click on View---> Panels ---> Browser.

Select the Browser tab then select the layer you want from the XYZ Tiles:

If you wish to add tiles from other providers, just right click on the XYZ Tile folder and choose "New Connection".

Below are some connections I have taken from this page: (https://geogeek.xyz/how-to-add-google-maps-layers-in-qgis-3.html)
