NSString *formattedGroceryAddress = [[NSString stringWithFo

Well I guess I should have searched better before asking !

You can add dirflg=w to the request and it will launch maps app in the walking mode.

It's funny because Apple says they are only supporting a few Google Maps parameters not including this one but it actually seems to work !
