Trip Planner, No search option?

Post by LQQK_OUT »

Does anyone else think it's a mistake that there isn't a "search" option for the Trip Planner? I have at least 20 trips imported into the Trip Planner. The GPS software doesn't even alphabetize the imported trips. When I want to look for a particular trip, I need to scroll through the screen. Seems like they could easily implement a "search" option, similar to when you "import" a trip.

You should find they are listed in closest order to you. Logic of that is if you want to start a trip it'll be one where you are. A search option would be good though and you could try suggesting that here https://www.garmin.com/en-US/forms/ideas/

I filled out the form for a Trip Planner search feature. Thank you.
I do not believe the routes are listed in the closet order to me. I've asked Garmin support about this and they told me the trips are listed in the order they have been Imported. This also doesn't seem to be the case for me.

Routes that have been given a future departure date/time will be sorted by date/time in trip planner. This is only valuable when you have planned a multi-day trip (1 route/day).included a departure date/time in each route, and have deleted all saved routes before importing the ones associated with that trip. Additional sort controls and a search function would be a plus.
