  3. Enter an address or search for a location.
  4. When you find what you’re looking for, tap on it and then tap on the blue “drop pin” button in the bottom right corner.
  5. If you want to keep track of where your pin is, tap on the blue dot that appears next to your pin when you’re viewing it on the map. ..
