Waypoints similar to Google MyMaps ?
-
I am a new user and am missing a feature that I rely on extensively.. and that is WayPoints similar to what you can have in Googles MyMaps. These are, I guess, similar to Points of Interest, although I dont see how I can use the MRA version of POI for this purpose.
Essentially, while the route planning is great, It doesnt seem like I can enter places I want to perhaps, or perhaps not, see along my itinerary. When I put in a waypoint MRA immediately want to route me to that place. But I dont want to change my route, I just want to record places along the way that might be interesting.
In My Maps I can do that, even add a photo or several, record notes, and use custom icons.
So for my trips I usually have my main intended route, and then in the same MyMap, I record all the cool places people have recommended to me, or posted about on Social Media.. I can even add a link to that post to refresh my memory as to why I added it.
If this feature exists in MRA then I haven't found it. And i find it to be an almost crippling downside of the map as I now have to record all those possible places somewhere else, and cannot have them show up in MRA.

Why you couldn't use your own POI for this purpose? Trere is a possibility to select an icon, enter description and it is visible in the navigation mode. Unfortunately I cannot see the option to add pictures here.

@Stephan-Dornberg Hi Stephan go to https://www.myrouteapp.com/support and read the section on Manual POI's perhaps that might guide you?
