  1. Tap the magnifying glass icon located on the main map screen. This will open the search screen.
  2. In the search field, either type or paste the keyword or name of the location you want to find. For example, you can enter the name of a city, a specific address, or a point of interest.
  3. Once you have entered the keyword, tap the Find button on the keyboard. This will trigger the search process.
  4. Guru Maps will search for matches based on your keyword.
