Anr id never buy another 720....it wants to run you on too many back roads where you have red lights/stop signs/slower speed limits.....its better alot of times to stay on the interstate and do 65-70 mph

I wasn't able to create my own route with multiple way points on this unit. My old TomTom is the XL and I downloaded the free Tyre program that works with Google Earth to create itineraries. Tyre works with TomTom and Garmin and you can create an itinerary with lots of waypoints or stops. You can also edit itineraries you already have on your TomTom. Needless to say I bought the VIA 1605 but returned it. Like you I wanted a unit I could create my own itinerary with lots of waypoints.

You have to manually enter the destination. However you can use Navibridge app on your smartphone that should transfer the location you want. Assuming you have Siri (if an iPhone user) or the appropriate Android voice recognition to load it into the phone.

You will have the option of choosing several types of routes. You can set it up the way that is best for you.

Hello Daina,I don't know if there is an option in the setting that would permit this...It only loads the best rout that it calculates to be the best option. If you connect it with the traffic sensor, and depending on the traffic in your planed rout, it may give a new option (route), and let you know how much time you could save... You will however, have to accept the suggestion before your GPS could implement it (the new route )...Have a great day,Kevin

Yes; there is a "mode" selection where you can choose walking or driving. The "walking mode" will take you on a more direct path, but sometimes misses shortcuts. It's a great idea for Europe or travel when you don't want to pay for streaming data.

Yes. It will either have you do a U-turn or reroute you to the next street. It depends on the location.

yes, you can be returned by the same route that traces using the option "way points", it is important to highlight those areas of importance for better orientation upon return, especially where there is no road or the topography is quite complex, it is a very good team, I recommend

if you know the route you want to take the gps will automatically reroute you other wise you may want to follow the route garmin is taking you

No. It will allow you to plan your own detour. You must put the detour in manually. Now, Garmin does offer a traffic app but they charge you for it.

The feature that lets you take the route you want to take is the "add stop" feature.

Most GPS's you can select a route via you put in the city's you want to go through and that is the way the GPS takes you. Those are call waypoints along the route. But as I said before, I would not buy this GPS.

Yes. 1. Select an address first, the select Go 2. Select another address and select Go 3. It will ask for whether you want to add to the trip or not.

Yes, but it may not offer you every single possible route. I usually get 2-3 options and it compares the mileage and arrival times for those options.

You can see the full route map by doing the following: - when on your route, touch the current route instructions shown at the top of the map. - This opens a view of each step in your route. - At the bottom of the display, there is a button in the middle of the screen called "Show Map". Press this button. - This opens your full route map from your current location to the end point. Hope this helps.

If you are asking, "can I set specific roads to take?", I haven't found a way to do that. You can set the type of route, ie. shortest, fastest...

You can at your own pace. You need to move. ONLY you can know how far... BUT MOVE at your pace.
