 +====== Navigate to... ======
 +
 +----
 +Standard voice navigation as you know it from your car or other applications.
 +===== 1. Select Target =====
 +Firstly, you have to **tell Locus where you want to go**. 
 +==== Directly on map ====
 +The simplest and fastest (and the least accurate) way.
 +  - **hold your finger on the place on the map you want to be navigated to**
 +  - a popup with address emerges, tap ">" and select **Navigate to**\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace23.gif?nolink |}}
 +==== Other location options ====
 +When you need accurate or special definition of your target location, use **location selector**:
 +  - tap //Menu > More functions > Navigate to// {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace24.gif?nolink |}}
 +  - select **[[:manual:user_guide:tools:location|method of defining target]]** of your route:\\  
 +{{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace8.png?nolink&  }}\\ 
 +
 +==== Point from Data manager ====
 +Use e.g. in case you want to navigate to some geocache from your database: 
 +  - select the point from [[:manual:user_guide:points:management#data_manager|Point manager]]\\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace4.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - tap it to display the [[:manual:user_guide:points:management#point_detail_screen|point detail screen]]
 +  - tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_guide_alt.png?nolink&30}}button from the bottom panel and select **Navigate to**
 +
 +==== Point on map ====
 +Similar to the first method but now you select directly some point of interest:
 +  - tap a point of interest displayed on the map (a geocache or some LoMap POI)
 +  - tap ">" on the point label and select **Navigate to**
 +
 +{{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace5.png?nolink&  }}
 +
 +=== Own navigation target for repeated use ===
 +
 +  - start **Navigate to** and tap{{:manual:user_guide:ic_edit_alt.png?nolink&20|}}: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace9.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - select **own location** in the next menu: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace10.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - set the **icon** and **name** of the location (home, work, grandma…) and tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_get_location_alt.png?nolink&20|}} to select method of defining the target: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace11.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - **define your target** by showing it on the map, address etc.: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace12.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - **confirm**. Your navigation destination appears among the location selecting methods: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace13.png?nolink&  }}
 +
 +When you start navigation **next time, just select the target from the grid**. 
 +<WRAP center round tip>
 +**Starting point of your route can be re-defined too, just tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_get_location_alt.png?nolink&20|}} next to it and select location method.**
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +===== 2. Add Via Points =====
 +You can insert up to three places you do not want to miss on your route:
 +  - tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_add_via_point_alt.png?nolink&30}} in the topbar\\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace15.png?nolink&  }}
 +  - select via point **location definition** (map center, GPS, address...)
 +  - via points display **between the start and final points** of your navigation route
 +  - you can **change order** of the via points as well as starting and final points by **dragging them up or down** on the left side\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace26.png?nolink |}}
 +  - you can change names, location of the via points (tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_get_location_alt.png?nolink&20|}}) or remove them by tapping "x".
 +<WRAP center round tip>
 +**If you need more sophistically planned route, use [[manual:user_guide:tracks:planning|Locus Route Planner]]!**
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +===== 3. Select Activity or Means of Transport =====
 +
 +Next step is to choose **sports activity or means of transport** an route (aka navigation profile). The selection depends on used **routing services**.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace27.png?nolink |}} 
 +==== Online routing ====
 +
 +{{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace21.png?nolink |}}
 +=== GraphHopper ===
 +{{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace25.png?nolink |}}
 +Additional settings of GraphHopper profiles are relevant only to the 'car' profile.
 +=== YOURS ===
 +This service has no additional settings.
 +==== BRouter - offline routing ====
 +**Offline navigation and route planning** in Locus is possible thanks to a **free** cooperating app 
 +**[[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=btools.routingapp|BRouter]]**:
 +  - download it, install it and download routing data to it - start it separately and select **Downloader**
 +  - set BRouter as **default** router in **[[:manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:settings|navigation settings]]**.
 +=== BRouter settings ===
 +BRouter offers much more sophisticated profile settings. Not only you can add more conditions relevant to various means of transport,
 +
 +{{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace18.png?nolink |}}
 +
 +you can also change the profile selection:

 +After tapping the START button, the **navigation panel and control menu** are displayed:\\

 +**Show more** button displays further setting options:\\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace14.png?nolink&  }}
 +
 +  * **Guide mode**  - fine-tune the way of navigation:
 +      * //Navigation//  - full turn-by-turn navigation you are used to from your car
 +      * //Guidance (with commands)//  - simplified mode with TTS direction changes notifications
 +      * //Guidance (no commands)//  - the simplest way without any notifications
 +  * **Store permanently**  - if checked, you can store you navigation route to the device memory for later use. You can select a folder for it or create a new one.
 +
