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 or favorite addresses.
Tip: The terms "favorite" and "place" mean the same thing - favorites are places that you go to
often.
The following items are always in My Places:
Home - Your home location can be your home address or somewhere you often visit. This
feature provides an easy way to navigate there.
Work - Your work location can be your workplace address or somewhere you visit often. This
feature provides an easy way to navigate there.
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.
Marked locations - You can mark a location and temporarily add it to My Places.
You can add a location to My Places directly in My Places, by selecting a location from the map, by
searching for a location or by marking a location.
You can upload community POI lists using TomTom MyDrive and choose to show the POI locations on
the map.
Your home location, work location, marked locations and the locations that you have added appear
in a list in My Places and are shown with a marker on the map.
