We support installing any apps that are available in the flatpak format (see http://flatpak.org/ for details).
We are looking forward to making the GNOME Maps application available as soon as the GNOME team fixes a problem with networking in the flatpak version. See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777706. In the meantime, we have blocked it from our app center since it would be confusing to install an app that appears so broken. it is a little awkward, but you actually can work around this bug and use the application on Endless via the following commands in the terminal…
To install the flatpak:
flatpak install org.gnome.Maps
(It may take a while to install because it has to download the latest version of the GNOME runtime.)
Then, to run the application:
flatpak run --system-talk-name=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager org.gnome.Maps
Keep an eye out for the Maps application in the Endless app center in the near future.

Just to note - Endless OS 3.5 isn’t out yet! I think you mean 3.1.5. I’m really looking forward to enabling GNOME Maps on Endless in future, I really like the app, hope the workaround helps in the short term.
That’s about a different app, Soy502, which was discontinued — I think the original poster has been helped already.
