"stupid" iphone tricks
Did you know that when you search for an item on the map there are TWO different options that are available on that little red pin? I did not!
I knew that on the right hand side, where there is an icon of an arrow, this would get more specific information about the location (address, phone number, request directions button, etc.). But I had NO idea that there is sometimes an icon on the left hand side that shows one other option. If you click on the little person icon, you see the google 'street view' for the address!
Obviously, this only works if google HAS a street view for the address. If they don't, then, the little person icon isn't there.
I had been wondering why they didn't offer the street views on the iPhone. Apparently they did, but they didn't send me the memo on how to access it. (I had been expecting this to be under the screen of additional information that comes up from the arrow press)
