Suggestion for Garmin Map POI

Postby chuenhow » Fri Feb 11, 2011 11:39 pm

Since Garmin 1xxx model device cannot show some of POI like petrol station in navigation mode, i suggest that MFM team could create a sound alert for petrol station POI when there is 2km far before reach there.... :)

No need for us to do it. You can do it yourself with Garmin POI loader software

It is a free software from Garmin, downloadable from their website

Proximity Alerts — When you're within a certain distance of a POI or driving a certain speed near a POI, your device can provide visual and audio alerts. This can be helpful near school zones, red lights and safety cameras.
