Put your destination into maps and when it's been found tap the car icon bottom right and it will give you a choice of routes. You have to have GPS turned on, obviously...;)Ah right, I didn't know it had one!
What I know about smartphones can be written on the back of stamp!! Cheers I'll give it a go, and if I get stuck I'll phone my granddaughter!!
