Tutorial
You can now skip typing when you search for businesses on your BlackBerry.
Learn how you can speak your search to find any business in your current map view:
1. Hold the left-side key
2. Say the business type. For example ‘pizza’ or ‘florist’. (Or, you can say a specific business name. For example ‘Luca’s pizza’ or ‘Dave’s flowers’)
3. Release the left-side key when you have finished speaking
4. Google Maps for mobile will recognize your spoken query and search the map
