Then there should be a button in the middle of the screen that says, "set your current location), if it is correct tap it, if not, at the top of the screen is a place to enter your current location.

>> For those who use the Iphone app, how do you use the app? I am a bit confused, there are buttons at the top, that say like black car and suv. How do I get a regular car? How do I get an estimate? How do I set my destination? And general use of how to work the app would be appreciated!

>> To relate this back to my pup, I will not be taking her to this presentation. So I am hoping that there will be issues. 
>> If you can help, please email me privately.
