GREAT ADVICE IN VIDEO!!!!
IT ALSO MAY HELP IF A PERSON TURNED OFF "USE EXACT LOCATION WILL USING THIS APP"

[英婆婆]

Thank you for teaching us! It works now. I have spent two weeks to find the start button.

[ebaz]

How do you change your current location ? I only see a keyboard popping out, not what you pressed.

[TMcGee_]

You are the F*^%ing Man! I mean that with all due respect. For months I've been trying to figure that out! I drive trucks so I use the Google maps multiple stops feature everyday and couldn't figure out why I only have preview at times. Thanks!!!!

[trishameloling]

i have my current location an its still only showing preview

[tthomas]

I like to set up the route ahead of time so that the RV and follow car can travel a safe route together.

[samvitkumar]

Thanku thanku
This is called solution....

This is illogical and makes the sharing directions function useless in several scenarios. I'm trying to share directions to a shoe store with a relative starting at that relative's house, but their home address is not programmed into their maps app which is very common. They hit the destination to try to copy it and it disappears.

[ogunnoteoyindamola]

Hello.... Mine doesn't even show the preview button. You have to drag the time estimate up to see the directions but no start or preview button. It's been this way for about 3 to 4 days now

Start button show krta hai start bhi hota hai after that aage nai badhta map location se chalu ho jata hai pr vaha se aage nai chalta

[CloMo]

If still having issues...hold directions button and it will change to GPS and start navigating. You will see start button thereafter. I have an Android

[goms]
