How to get directions on the iPhone or iPad

Question

Hi I would like to in my application display something like: you're destination is 400 ft north west.

I currently use the getDistanceFrom method but that only gives me the feet between 2 locations.

Thanks for your help.

You probably should simply use Latitude Longitude equations to calculate the bearing and then set certain ranges of bearings to be SW,S,SE, etc.
