As mentioned, Siri has been experiencing momentarily unavailability from time to time in recent months. Simply dictate your address into the edit field in Apple Maps. Blind Square does not give turn by turn directions. It routs end users to mapping services from Apple or Google and delivers enhanced voice guidance on top of the turn by turn directions.
