How name marked location on tomtom rider 550?

motif

I just marked spot that was not on the map and it was saved to my places as "marked".
Ho do I rename it to know later what it is???

HI @motif

I have not got a Rider but on my Car unit if I select a place in My Places it appears on the map with a menu next to it with Drive at the end, on the Rider I think it has a different word . Next to Drive are 3 vertical dots which if I Tap gives me a further menu where one option is to Rename the My Place. Do you get the same option on the Rider?

As Doug says to Convert a Marked location to a MyPlace

Further to Doug's post... Maybe useful....
Note the images are from a Tomtom NAV4/5 Car Satnav

Tapping the Direction of travel pointer (Above the + & - signs)


Toggles the map view between the Driving & Planning views
If you are using the North-up overview planning Map
The direction of travel pointer... is flatter more squat



If you want to save your present location to 'MyPlaces'....

(1)... Switch to the North-up overview planning Map
Long Tap on the Chevron Location cursor (Tap and hold for + 1 second) a Quick menu opens... Tap the 3Dot Icon Tap 'Add to MyPlaces'

(2)... Switch to the North-up overview planning Map
Long Tap anywhere on the screen (Tap and hold for + 1 second) a Quick menu opens... Tap the 3Dot Icon Tap 'Add to MyPlaces'

Note... Long and short taps give different menu option

thanks, appears to be easy - press the market location in myplaces which opens the map and 3 dots bring menu add to my places which gives option to rename it. A bit confusing because this location is already in my places just with marked name, so you technically adding to my places second time.

A 'Marked location' is not in the list of MyPlaces... Its in a Sub menu called 'Marked locations' at the bottom of the Myplaces list

that is incorrect - marked location on 550 rider is on myplaces.

Hi

Sorry but you are incorrect... My Rider 550's, MyPlaces list

The Sub Menu called 'Recent destinations' is at the top of the Myplaces list

The Sub menu called 'Marked locations' is at the bottom of the Myplaces list

Tap on the 'Marked locations' Sub menu --> A new screen opens and displays the list of 'Marked locations'....
I Marked a random location at 11:36 today

Tap on 'Today 11:36 am' --> The Planning Map opens with a Quick Menu displayed... Tap on 'Add to MyPlaces' --> Edit or accept the Name offered --> Tap 'Add'
