Search for a Location
Subcategories
Many categories have subcategories to provide for an even
greater list of choices. For example, “Petrol 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 Indian, 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 petrol station, hotel, or restaurant.
The available options are listed below.
Current Location
Lets you search near your current location. This is the default value.
Destination
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 close to your
destination. Note that this button is enabled only when a destination is entered.
Other Address
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 other
locations.
Search Radius
Enter the location distance to search for a designated place. For example, if you
enter 5 km, Destinator only searches within a five kilometre 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 increase the radius size
if necessary.
Note: if you don’t specify a search radius, Destinator searches the whole map
and displays the locations according to the distance from you.
Show or Hide Symbol on Map
You can add or remove the ticks next to a POI entry to show or hide the POI symbol on the Map.
POI Actions
When you have selected a POI location, tap the Actions button to display the commands listed below.
Set as Origin
Lets you designate the selected location as the route origin. You would use this
command when calculating a route from a point other than your current location.
Show on Map
Lets you see the selected address on the map.
Add to My Favourites
Lets you add an address to your list of favourite locations, as shown in the figure
below. For more information, see "My Favourites".
