Works as advertised holding down the control key and utilizing the magic mouse. Prior to the latest Monterey update, it was not necessary to hold the control or any other key; this was true with both maps and google maps.

Hello chester229,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

To learn more about the issue, does it only happen when viewing maps? Are you using the Maps app, or something else?

Were you able to use the zoom feature on maps with your Magic Mouse 2 prior to the update without issue?

We can confirm you're using these steps to Use your trackpad or mouse to zoom on Mac - Apple Support

Also, please make sure you're using the latest macOS with the steps here: Update macOS on Mac - Apple Support


We hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hi chester229,


The same steps in the guide for macOS Big Sur shows:


"Choose a modifier key (Control, Option, or Command) to use to zoom, or press a combination of them together.

If you’re using an Apple Magic Mouse, see Use an Apple Magic Mouse."


Using the link there it brings your to the details to "Smart zoom - Double-tap with one finger to zoom in or out." This may be a helpful option for you as well.


Additionally, check out the guide page here: Zoom, move, rotate, or tilt a map in Maps on Mac and Keyboard shortcuts and gestures in Maps on Mac


However, if it's working as expected per the guide you can provide feature feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple


Best.
