Sightlines Nearby map with a westward direction cone, a one-mile range, and Scan this direction button

Choose a direction.

Point your phone toward a place you’re curious about. The cone on the map shows the area you’re exploring.

Your heading: the compass direction at the top.
Your range: how far ahead to look.
Your scan: nearby addresses and roads to explore.

In this example, the phone points west and the range is set to one mile.

Sightlines Night Mode showing a 249-degree westward heading and a list of nearby address candidates

Review the possibilities.

Nearby and Night Mode help you explore likely places in that direction. Night Mode provides a view that’s easier to read in low light.

Address candidates: possible places along your sightline.
Context: distances help you compare the results.
History: successful reports are saved on your device.

A candidate address is a possibility, not confirmation of the source of a light, sound, or event.
