Turn on Up Ahead Places in Map layers.

But a long while back I discovered that when you transfer new ones, the older ones don't always show. It might have been a few updates ago though. I didn't pursue it. Give me a nudge in a couple of days time, I'll see if I made some notes.
They show up as white hearts in a green square - by default. They are also subject to a time delay - they are the last things to be drawn on the map, and may not show at all depending on the zoom level.

Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !
