Next there is a Map of the City which you entered in your location powered by &#8216;Microsoft Virtual Earth&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/Images\/B\/Bing-Hyderabad-Listing.png\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/Images\/B\/Bing-Hyderabad-Listing.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Bing City Search Mobile\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/Images\/B\/Bing-Hyderabad-Listing.png?resize=200%2C301\" alt=\"Bing City Search Mobile\" width=\"200\" height=\"301\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I had to save the location under Home, work or other to make sure i dont have to keep entering my location whenever i visit the mobile bing version. There is also a option to &#8216;Optimize web results for your phone&#8217; under search settings which needs to be set as ON.<\/p>\n<p>Next when i went for a Location Search on Bing where in you need to Enter two locations from Start to End and then you get all the location details via Map or else in the Text format which is quite good because it helps you with the right locations given in detail. The location search gave me roads information along with the rights &amp; left i need to make while driving in this route. There were even a option to show a Map for this selected location search which had pointers for all the text based route help they had provided. This thing has really been helpful to me because the Google Maps dont provide you with the location names and the lefts or rights you need to drive when you want to reach certain destination, but Bing search is just awesome in this case.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/Images\/B\/bing-search-route.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Bing Search Route\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/Images\/B\/bing-search-route.png?resize=200%2C301\" alt=\"Bing Search Route\" width=\"200\" height=\"301\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the Mobile Search menu there was a link called &#8216;Movies&#8217; which was originally meant for finding all the latest movies running at your location theaters and when i did a search for my location, i was amazed to find some unrelated search results instead of the right movie names or theater names.
