Is it possible to capture or mark a Point of Interest whilst driving?If so, how?

Any tips, please.

Thanks,

John

Touch the screen and hold your finger there for a second or so and it'll record a favourite called 001. Then next will be called 002 etc Then when you can a chance you can rename the favourites.

Probably not best to do any of this if you are driving.....

or, tap the screen (without holding it down) then it will show a 2d map with a 'dot' where you pressed the screen. pull over and fine tune the position on the map then do the naming and saving.

obviously this method needs you to be able to pull over!! if not then use paul's above!

I think MaFts method is better because i can only make my method work by accident when i don't want it to!
