You only need to hit the button called «tracking» left bottom corner three 
times if it is off. When Voice Over says «tracking with direction» it will 
announce streets live as you walk. Take notice, Apple Maps sucks current out of 
iPhone like no other app. As much as light on 100% do.

Take care

Speaking of apps for getting around, has anyone els noticed apple maps giving 
the address across the current location? I think this happens when you're 
walking.

Another pro for Places Around, is that you can also search for a business if 
you are unable to find the business listed in its approperate category.
