When on the map page, tap on any icon to view the point of interest (POI). If the icon is orange with a number, this is a cluster and it means you need to zoom in to see the multiple POIs in that area. To close a POI, tap the down pointing arrow in the top right corner of the POI details page.
You can search for places via the map or by using the ‘explore’ tab and search function. To search using the map, just use two fingers to pinch and zoom, or one finger to drag the map to find the location you are looking for. To search using ‘explore’, tap the first icon on the bottom of the screen. It will automatically show you points of interest near your current location. If you would like to search a specific place, type the place in the search field at the top of the screen and then view results.
You can use filters to customise what points of interest you can see on the map. To access filters go to the hamburger menu on the map (three lines in the top corner) and then select "POI Filters". From this page you can toggle categories such as "Places to stay", or you can select more specific groups to filter"

Offline maps will automatically become active when you do not have access to internet.
A data sync updates your device with the latest point of interest (POI) information. It also will upload any reviews, photos, costs or reports submitted on existing POI’s to admin for review.

Select “Trips” from the bottom menu (fourth icon from left). Select “+ Add new”. You will be prompted to first name you trip, then tap next. Then choose a start date. You can then choose to select and end date or just leave it blank if you do not have a decided date yet. You can then select any POI and on the detail screen choose ‘Add to trip’. It will then prompt you to pick what day/s you want to visit this POI.
Tap on “Trips” followed by the trip name. Beside each destination, there will be two lines like an equal’s sign. Hold and drag the destination in the order on the equal’s sign.

You will be asked to give a rating out of 5 stars, and then add a comment about the location and submit. Please do not forget that you will need to do a data sync for the information to be sent to head office for approval and a data sync will also need to be performed for that approved review to show on the POI.
