The quickest way: Go to Instant Street View or ShowMyStreet and enter a location's name or address. Or, go to Google Maps, enter an address, and select the Pegman to bring up Street View imagery. On mobile devices, try the Google Street View app for iOS or Android.

In the search bar, enter a destination or tap it on the map. Follow the on-screen instructions to help Maps find your location. Tip: Point your phone camera at buildings and signs across the street, instead of trees and people. Once Maps knows where you are, you'll get directions through the camera view on your screen.
