Get directions to an address
Type a place into a map and be told which way to turn.
A map app knows where you are and where you want to go. It works out the route and reads each turn aloud.
You type the place once. The map keeps up with you after that.
Key points
- A map app draws the way from where you are to a place you name
- It reads the turns aloud, and redraws if you miss one
What to remember
- Read the address under the name before you set off.
- Read the address, not the name.
Try this
Open your map app and search for your own street. Reading the result is enough.
