Phone Numbers in POIs

Is it possible to add phone numbers to custom POIs? Obviously the preloaded POIs have phone numbers associated so you can just press the little phone symbol on a Go 500, but there doesn't seem to be any place to add phone numbers to custom entries, including those downloaded from various POI databases.

Any help appreciated.

Welcome to the forums.

This has been discussed a number of times already, the Search will help you to find more details. In brief, you need to put a "greater than" sign beween text and phone number, and you need to include the country code into the phone number.

"POI text 〉4470851234567"

Sorry for being a noob in the forum...will try harder in the future. Searched countless different ways on google and didn't find anything quickly so I just asked here.

Will try harder next time =)

I thinkhe meant to try a search on here (using the icon at the top with the magnifying glass) rather than seaching on Google... Smile

I was trying to add the phone number to my Personal POI through the TomTom and I can not find and 'less than' symbol on any of the 'keypads'. Can you tell me where it is please ?

Thanks

it's a "greater than" symbol and you cannot do that on the device unless you have a hardware keyboard (a la HTC Universal)
