Voice-guided directions are activated after users install the latest over-the-air update for their devices. To manually check for the update, go to the General menu in Settings, then choose Software Update. Once installed, using the new feature is simple. Open the Maps app, create a route using the arrow icon on the top left of the screen, then press Start.

The feature has been eagerly awaited by many Australian iOS device owners, despite Apple’s mapping software receiving poor reviews across the world for being incomplete. That said, our early tests of the feature have worked very well.
