Maps has now made it easier to
get directions to and from anywhere that the GPS can locate. After searching
for the address of your specific location or your current place and tapping the
screen, a purple pin will drop. This will give you the option of getting
directions to the pin or from the pin, or even sharing your location via
e-mail, text or Tweet. If you want to drop a pin anywhere, click the
bottom-right corner and hit “Drop Pin” (or “Replace Pin,” if you’ve already got
one on the map). That way, you can drop a pin anywhere on the map, not just
where you’ve searched.
