Subcategories
Many categories have subcategories to provide for an even greater list of choices. For example, "Gasoline
Station" may have many subcategories each representing a particular brand name. The same is also true for
"Hotels". "Restaurants" have subcategories that represent different types of food, such as American, Italian,
and French, as shown below.

Search Near a Location
You can tap the Near button to determine the location area, where you want to search for a specific place,
such as a gas station, hotel, or restaurant.
The available options are listed below.
Current Location

Show or Hide
Symbol on Map
Destinator User Manual
Lets you search near your current location. This is the default value.
Lets you search near a specified destination. For example, you know your
general destination, but not very much about interesting locations in the
area. You can use Destinator to locate the tourist attractions most appealing
to yourself, family, or friends. Note that this button is enabled only when a
destination is entered.
Lets you search near another address. For example, you have set a
destination, but on the way you want to stop at another location. You can use
this feature to search near that location for restaurants, lodging, historical
sites, or anything you want.
Enter the location distance to search for a designated place. For example, if
you enter 5 km, Destinator only searches within a five kilometer radius.
When you select a large search radius, you risk the chance of finding too
many locations, which makes it harder to find the place that you are
searching for. It is best to start with a small search radius size, and then
make it larger if necessary.
Note: if you don't specify a search radius, Destinator searches the whole
map.
Lets you customize your POI list by showing or hiding the POI category
symbols that you don't want. When you hide a category a red mark appears.
This mark only means that the category symbol does not appear on your
map. The category locations are still available to you. You can always show a
hidden category symbol by selecting the category and tapping the Show
Symbol on Map button.
