Hi Gilly

You need a map program of some sort.  Apple maps is not bad at all these
days and is built in to ios.  Google maps for ios is also excellent.
Personally I use Waze.

You open the app, search for destination and then there is usually a button
that comes up with a car on it or "navigate here" or similar.  You click
that and it assumes your start point is your current location.  Et voila!
As long as you have it safely displayed (not on windscreen for example) you
can use any of those three (and there are many others) for turn-by-turn
directions.  You can also edit your journey to have a different starting
point, you can schedule journeys (including calendar integration for most
apps) and can pick car, walking, bike, public transport etc.

All will allow an extra stop but there are more limits to that depending on
the app.  Google maps on line will allow you to plot a journey with I think
5 stops which you can then send to your phone, in the app you can only do
one.  Apple maps at the moment will only show you places of interest like
restaurants along your route and then you can select one to navigate to
without losing final destination.  Waze allows for one additional stop.
For waze, add your final destination, then your intermediate stop.

You can also add "favourites" to all of these programs, so home/work and
then eg holiday home etc.  can then just click that rather than have to
remember a postcode in the Peak District or whatever!

And finally a shout out for what3words.  Brilliant concept, lets you find
and then navigate to any 3m sq spot on the PLANET and integrates with all
three apps I mention above (plus others).  Used by all emergency services
in Sussex to find people.  Have seen a heli rescue in the middle of nowhere
where W3W was used to pinpoint casualty position!
