Add POI

category

Every POI must be assigned to a POI category. This means you

need to have created at least one POI category before you can cre-

ate your first POI.

You can only add POIs to POI categories you have created.

For more information on creating POI categories, read Managing

POIs.

Home

Tap this button to set your Home location as a POI.

This is useful if you decide to change your Home location but first

want to create a POI using the current Home address.

Favorite

Tap this button to create a POI from a Favorite.

You might want to create a POI from a Favorite because you can

only create a limited number of Favorites. If you want to create

more Favorites you need to delete some Favorites. To avoid losing

a Favorite, save the location as a POI before you delete the Favor-

ite.

When you enter an address, you can choose from four options.

have recently used as destinations.
