I\'m trying to do what seemed to be an easy thing but has resulted in some confusion. I\'m trying to have a link going to Google Maps with the destination address pre-filled
Use My Location instead:
https://maps.google.com/?saddr=My%20Location&daddr=myDestinationAddress
Current Location only works on OS'es with English locale setup.
I haven't found any documentation on this. However leaving saddr blank as suggested here https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/urlscheme will prompt the user to input start address.
