    Where can I find a file with UK toilets listed on it, and then add them as POI’s on the map so that I can then add a waypoint nearby.
    Thanks

      @TelBoy-0 Here is a link for a csv file for UK Toilet POIs Save it to your computer and then use the Upload tab and choose to upload as POI. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qv5OgJ4tN9UYGEfqM6u6d8KPoqHlNzrE/view?usp=drive_link

          Do we perhaps also have a similar POI file for the Netherlands and maybe also for Germany and Belgium?

              You can harvest them off Open Street Map data using QGIS and the Quick OSM add in. Then export them to a GPX file using the QGIS POI exporter.

              There are too many in the Netherlands and Germany for one query so divide the query into administrative areas.

              Screenshot 2026-03-12 164850.png

              So for the Netherlands a Query for Drenthe and North Holland.

              The results

              This is one I created for the Great Britain and Ireland

              Screenshot 2026-03-12 170311.jpg

              And what it looks like as a POI upload. This has to be manipulated as the field data for MyRoute POI's is limited to Long Lat and Field name.

              Screenshot 2026-03-12 170504.png

              Personally I load these POI's into my Garmin XT via Garmin POI loader with an audible proximity warning of 0.5 miles even though I predominantly use MyRoute app for navigation.
