About My Places

My Places provides an easy way to select a location without the need to search for the location each time. You can use My Places to create a collection of useful addresses.

The following items are always in My Places:

• Home and Work - These locations can be your home and work addresses, or places you often visit. Choosing locations lets you use the Drive Home and Drive to Work buttons in the main menu.
• Recent destinations - Select this button to select your destination from a list of locations you have recently used as destinations. These also include your stops.
• Contacts - Select this button to select a contact from your list of contacts.
• Photos - Select this button to open your phone's photo album. Select a geotagged photo and plan a route to the location that the photo was taken.

  Tip: A photo that is geotagged has the location that the photo was taken stored in the photo file. You can switch on geotagging of photos in your phone's settings.

• Favorites - Locations that you have saved to My Places are shown here, so you can select them without having to search for them on the map.

You can add a location to My Places directly in the My Places menu, by selecting a location from the map, by searching for a location, and selecting Add to My Places from the pop-up menu.

Your home location and the locations that you have added appear in a list in My Places and are shown with a marker on the map.
