Find Your Location on the Map
If you’d like to find your current location on the map, tap the Location/Compass button 
in the Action menu (see Figure 11–2). You’ll see your location on the map as an arrow surrounded by a blue circle. You could be anywhere within that blue circle, so the smaller the circle, the more accurate the location information is.
