How to use the street view at google maps on the iPhone?

Q. How to use the street view at google maps on the iPhone?

A. Type in an address or "drop pin". Either way you should see a small "head" on the address label.

If the head is colored, then touch it and it will shift to street view.

If the head is NOT colored (shaded out), then there is no street view available for that location.

How do I get to Birmingham New Street Station from Moor Street Station?
Q. It's the first time I'm taking the train alone but I have to get from Moor street station to New Street station and I'm not really sure how to do it. I'm quite used of Birmingham but I've only really ever been to the Bull ring and the few streets around it. Google Maps has been a bit con fussing so I'm just after some easy directions. I'm assuming it's walkable? I'm unlikely to have a lot of bags, just one small rucksack.

Thanks!

A. It's only about 10 minutes walk, and I'm sure it's signposted. You leave Moor Street station through the main exit, and turn left. Cross over the road at the crossing, then turn right. then turn left. Follow the path under the underpass. Keep going until you come out of the other side of the underpass, then continue until you get to a pedestrian crossing on your right. Go over the crossing, and New Street station is right in front of you.

There are other ways, but that is the most direct, and quickest if you don't have much luggage to carry.

How is google earth better than google map?

Q. Google map also has street views. Google earth requires installation. How is one better than the other? Thanks for answering!!!

A. Google Earth gives a much bigger picture, and it's easier to zoom in and out and fly around. And you can change the viewing angle and elevation. And there are a ton of other features, most of which I don't even use, but they're there.

For looking at maps in a web browser, I switched to bing.com (by Microsoft) because they have "birds eye view" which is really cool.

How safe is 8th st in san francisco?
Q. My friend and I are planning to walk from Civic Center bart station to 8th and Brannan St. The route we are taking is just straight down 8th street but google told me that there might be incomplete pedestrian paths on that way. I want to know if it's relatively safe to walk (during day) if not, what other routes would be better? Also what kind of businesses/environment can we find on our walk?

Thank you very much.

A. The area will be safe for you to walk. You can even take the 19 Polk bus if you want to, fare is $2 per person. There are sidewalks on either side of the street so you will have pedestrian access though they may be working on curbs or sidewalks, I don't know simply because I've not walked that route in the last few months.

The area is mostly office, light industry. You'll pass a few restaurants, coffee shops, some resident hotels, a power substation, and a charity called St. Vincent De Pauls.

How do you capture a screen on Google street view?

Q. I would like to capture a screen of my street on Google street view but I don't know how. I have seen others do it and use them as images online. How do I do this?

A. Press the 'Print Scrn' button (you don't need to press shift), it is the button to the right of F12 and above 'insert' ( I hope it is the same on your computer) but when you press the button it doesn't look like it hasn't worked because nothing happens, it has worked you just need to 'paste' it on word or powerpoint or something
