Map instructions uses the Bing Maps API to provide driving, walking, cycling, and public transit instructions online. You can use it on any internet-connected device without an account or installation. Enter your starting location and destination, and Map Directions will show you the best route on a map with distance, travel time, and turn-by-turn instructions.

• Auto-complete: Map Directions suggests destinations as you write in the search box. You can choose a suggestion or keep typing until you find it.

• Location detection: Map Directions will use your current location as the starting point if you allow it. The "My Location" button lets you rapidly set the start or end point.

To avoid typing in frequently used locations, save them as favorites. You can update or delete favorites anytime.

• Share: Copy the URL or use social networking buttons to share your directions. Print or save your directions as a PDF.
