Follow turn-by-turn directions in Maps on iPhone
In the Maps app , follow detailed, turn-by-turn directions for driving, transit, and walking routes (not available in all countries or regions).
To provide directions, iPhone must be connected to the Internet. Cellular data rates may apply. (See View or change cellular settings on iPhone.) To provide directions involving your current location, Location Services must be on. (See Set which apps can access your location on iPhone.)

To end directions at any time, tap End, or say something to Siri like “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.)
