Co-Pilot Help

[Warpdrv]

I got Co-Pilot for my android and I am having a hard time wrapping my head around how to search for simple destination....

For example In google maps, I can type in West Bend, WI Airport..... google maps finds this intantly, click on it and off I go...

With copilot it seems like I have to jump through so many hoops for such a simple thing.... its time consuming and a pain in the ass to me..... cleary I must be doing it wrong or something....

For those Co-Pilot Veterans if you could lend me some tips on how to find handle what would seem to be such a simple task....

How do you do a search on the fly ?!?!

I've generally found with Copilot I have to know the address. I gave up on their Points-Of-Interest stuff long ago, finding it laughably feeble. I'm otherwise OK with it for a general-purpose navigator but don't use it on the bike, anyway. They claim to have improved the POI stuff in recent releases, but your experience indicates they still have a ways to go.

I use to use Co-Pilot and really liked it. The search takes some getting use to it but I never have been blanked by it?

Here's an Android (alternate) solution for your search. Use the google search icon (voice app one works well too). So type or speak your destination. When results pop-up, select find address by Co-Pilot GPS. Click turn by turn navigation and it's a done deal, easy and fast.

Good luck, and it's not too bad and once you get use to the app... it will become pretty natural.
