Type a place name — a city, town, village, neighbourhood, landmark, mountain, lake, river, island, beach, national park, airport, or seaport — and matching suggestions will appear as you type; tap one, or press Enter, to jump straight there. You can also type coordinates directly as two numbers separated by a comma, latitude first then longitude (e.g. 19.207, 72.993) — south is negative latitude, west is negative longitude — and press Enter to apply them immediately, no suggestions needed.

If the compass heading seems incorrect or the dial's North marker drifts, recalibrate your device's magnetic sensor by moving your phone through a figure-eight pattern, as shown below — tilt and rotate through all orientations a few times until the reading stabilises. Keep the phone away from metal objects, magnets, and speakers while calibrating.
