adding waypoint

Post by krokodil »

So in google maps, if I am following a route, and suddenly decided to do a small detour and stop somewhere, say on a gas station, I can look it up and "Add as a stop" to my route. How can I do something similar in Zumo XT? I do not see an option of adding new waypoints while following the route and the "Edit route" screen only allows to skip not to add waypoints.

Load your route. Say go.
Then 'where to' to search or view map to locate a new point. Say Go.

with an existing route it gives you the options to start a new route, add aas next stop / via pount, add as last stop or add to active route.

The last options seems to add the point to the logical place in the existing route.
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !
