Adding a via to route planning go620

Diddychum

On a go620 is it possible to add a "via" to a route as was possible on my tomtom first edition?

Adding a stop to your route from the current route menu
1. In the Main Menu, select Current Route.
2. Select Add Stop to Route. The map view is shown.
3. To select a stop, do one of the following steps:

• Zoom in on the map, then press and hold to select a location. In the pop-up menu, select Add to Current Route.
• Select Search and search for a location. When you have found a location, select the Add Stop to Route button.

Your route is recalculated to include your stop.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I did try adding a stop but as the stop was slightly off the route I wanted my sat nav repeatedly tried to mske me return to the stop until I stopped the car and cancelled it. I had hoped it would have worked as my previous tomtom did. Thanks again.

HI @Diddychum

Let us assume you want to start a journey from where you are and finish in say Beccles but want to go via Kings Lynn.

Press menu (4Dots)
Press search
Type Beccles and select where you want to finish there. The destination appears on the map and a menu opens giving you the option on right hand end to Drive which you press just as you do for normal journeys.

The GO620 calculate the route.

Now you can add the interim stop.

When the route is ready press Menu(4Dots)
Press select
Type Kings Lynn and select where you want to visit there. The interim destination appears on the map and a menu opens. Press the 3 Vertical Dots next to Drive and then select Add to Current Route.

The unit now calculates a revised route to Beccles via Kings Lynn.

Thanks doug. As in my previous reply I tried adding a stop to my route but the village I selected was just of the route and whereas my previous tomtom just recalculated my route and ignored the fact I hadn,t stopped my 620 was very insistent that I did so!It was more a frustration thst I had to stop and cancel the programmed stop before it let me proceed. Just wondered if there wss an easier way to insert a via?
