In the Maps app , you can get detailed driving directions to your destination.
Get directions for driving
Ask Siri. Say something like: “Give me driving directions home.” If multiple routes appear, tap Go for the route you want. Or wait a moment and let Siri select a route for you. Learn how to ask Siri.

, then tap Go for the route you want.
Note: Before you tap Go, you can select other route options. For example, you can choose to avoid tolls or highways.
As you travel along your route, Maps speaks turn-by-turn directions to your destination. You can turn off voice directions, change the volume, or change the audio output device. See Change audio settings for turn-by-turn directions in Maps on iPhone.
To end the directions at any time, tap End, or say something like “Hey Siri, stop navigating.”

When Do Not Disturb While Driving is turned on, or if iPhone auto-locks, Maps stays onscreen and continues to announce directions. Even if you open another app, Maps continues to give you turn-by-turn directions. (To return to Maps from another app, tap the banner across the top of the screen.)
Note: Instead of viewing turn-by-turn directions, you can see an overview map of your route or the entire list of driving directions. See See an overview of your route or its directions in a list in Maps on iPhone.
Share your driving ETA
As you follow turn-by-turn driving directions, you can let others know your estimated time of arrival (ETA).
