Planning a route using coordinates

Important: In the interest of safety and to avoid distractions while you are driving, you should always plan a route before you start driving.

To plan a route using a pair of coordinates, do the following:

1. Tap Search at the top of the VIO app map.
2. Select the type of search button.

   

3. Select Latitude Longitude.

   Tip: The example coordinates shown on the screen are your current latitude and longitude.

4. Type in your pair of coordinates. You can enter any of these coordinate types:
   • Decimal values, for example:

     N 51.51000 W 0.13454

     51.51000 -0.13454

     Tip: For decimal values you don't have to use a letter to indicate the latitude and longitude. For locations west of the 0 meridian and locations south of the equator, use a minus sign (-) before the coordinate.

   • Degrees, minutes and seconds, for example:

     N 51°30′31″ W 0°08′34″ (Android)

     N 51d30′31″ W 0d08′34″ (iPhone)

   • GPS standard coordinates, for example:

     N 51 30.525 W 0 08.569

   Note: The bar below the coordinates goes red if you enter coordinates that are not recognised by your VIO.

5. As you type in the coordinates, suggestions are shown based on what you have entered. You can continue typing or select a suggestion.

   Tip: To see more results, hide the keyboard or scroll down the results list.

   Tip: You can switch between seeing the results on the map or in a list by selecting the list/map button:

   

6. Select a suggestion for your destination.

   The location is shown on the map.

7. Select Ride.

   A route is planned and then guidance to your destination begins on your VIO device.

   Tip: You can add a stop to a route that you have already planned. (Android only.)

   Tip: You can save a route using My Routes. (Android only.)
