 Maps and location

Using HTC Footprints

HTC Footprints™ provides an easy way to record favorite places and

revisit those places. A footprint consists of a photo you take of a

location such as a restaurant, a sightseeing destination, etc., stored

together with a precise GPS position and other information about that

location such as the street address and phone number.
The next time you want to visit the same place, simply access the

footprint. You can then dial the phone number or view the location in

Google Maps.

Creating a footprint

Press HOME , and then tap

>

Footprints.

Tap

New Footprint. If GPS is not on, you are prompted to turn it

on so that your phone can use GPS to find your location.
Point the camera at the scene you want to show the location.

Footprints starts to use GPS to search for your position.

To change brightness and white balance settings before you take

a photo, press MENU, tap

Brightness or White balance, and then

choose a setting.

Press the optical joystick to capture the photo. If your GPS

position has not been found yet, you are asked whether to find

the position on Google Maps, continue the GPS search, or stop the

GPS search. You may also be asked if you want HTC Footprints to

automatically determine the address for the location.
Tap

Done.

Before pressing

Done, you can press MENU, and then tap Edit to

change the name, category, or address of the footprint, enter the

phone and website, and add a voice memo to the footprint.
