You use the Coordinates Menu....
Tap on the four dot Icon (....) (Bottom left screen)
Tap Search Icon
Tap (Top right on screen) Tap Whole map Note…… On some units (I think) it says Installed Maps
Scroll down
Tap Latitude Longitude Icon
When the device has a "GPS Satellite lock"
The Latitude and Longitude shown on the screen examples are....

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
For example... Short Tap of the screen
(1)... With the screen displaying Driving View Map... Tap in the Arrowhead Location cursor --> Tap Mark Location
Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Myplaces... Scroll down to Mark Locations --> Tap on the required Marked location --> Tap Add to MyPlaces --> Rename the location as required
(2)...With the screen displaying the North-up Overview Planning Map
Pinch Zoom the Planning Map to Max --> Tap in the Arrowhead Location cursor --> Tap Mark Location
Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Myplaces... Scroll down to Mark Locations --> Tap on the required Marked location --> Tap Add to MyPlaces --> Rename the location as required
