Trip planner
You can use the trip planner to create and save a trip, which you
can navigate later. This can be useful for planning a delivery
route, a vacation, or a road trip. You can edit a saved trip to
further customise it, including reordering locations, optimising
the order of stops, adding scheduling information, and adding
shaping points.
You can also use the trip planner to edit and save your active
route.
Planning a trip
A trip can include many locations, and it must include at least a
starting point and a destination. The starting point is the location

route to your starting point first. For a round trip, the starting
location and final destination can be the same.
