While Tripp’s tip solved my first problem but then I became re-discouraged about how the consultant was going to navigate from place to place, assuming there was going to be a smartphone involved. I didn’t see
how to get directions when I viewed my app on my phone, at least not in a way where you could do it simply. So I went to google maps and googled the address of each school. Then I clicked on the directions icon, opening a new window. I grabbed the URL,
converted to a tinyurl and added it as an attribute. Voila! Google driving directions in each pop up window.
And now I feel like this:
If you have a better way, please share. Because now I realize I have to do this for a bunch of places I’m putting onto a social services map. Every solution just leads to another question....

Ahh! Thanks! You’d think they’d put that in the “publishing web applications” part of the help file....

Check the security settings for your ArcGIS Online account. I believe you must have it set to allow for anonymous login. That setting is located under My Organization>Edit Settings>Security.

I want to share web application of the school in Milford to give to a consultant so that he can drive from school to school and get directions from one to the next.
When I try to do this and send the link to my phone it asks me to sign in, even though I have everything shared to the public. Can anyone tell me what might cause this?
The only shapefile I’m using is school_pts and I'm got the topographic basemap. That’s it.
