How do you use Google Street View on the iPhone?

**MikeyP** · 11-21-2008, 12:49 PM

I see it was just released with Firmware 2.2 but I can't seem to figure out how to use it. I've used the MAP application that came with the iPhone and I've used it through Safari and still cannot find out how to access the street view. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

I don't think anyone can help because nobody here is going to upgrade until there's a Jailbreak for 2.2

Is there anyway someone else could find information online because I've tried and I just haven't found any, maybe it's because 2.2 was just released....

Not everyone here is a jailbreaker... Some just come because it's interesting :P

@MikeyP, go into Maps, drop a pin, click the little person icon.

Except it's not doing any sort of autofocus. It just loads a low-quality version of the image initially, then loads up a higher resolution image. Nothing to do with focus.

potato- potato
ur comparison is nonsense.
ur arguing terminology.

That guy who made that video is obviously some large cheese burger eating old man or something cause he sounds like he can barely breathe, let alone talk.
Dont get mad at is moronic statement about auto-focus. You get the point regardless.

all u gotta do is drop a pin and click the orange guy... plain and simple.

and Eurisko many of us have upgraded.
