Inserting “Favorites” Addresses and Contacts into Planned Routes Using the Route4Me iPhone App

Route4Me’s iPhone Route Planner is designed to make your routing operations and transactions as fast and flexible as possible, enabling you and your team to use a single secure centralized database for storing and managing all information about customers, depots, commercial facilities, warehouses, and any other prospects or real-world locations that are relevant to your business. Moreover, you can create a dedicated list of favorite addresses (learn more) that you use most frequently or need to be at hand at all times and then insert those addresses into already planned routes with just a touch of a button.

To insert one or multiple favorite addresses into a particular planned route, first, open this route to make it the “Current Route.” To do so, go to “Routes” from the navigation menu, tap on the “Open Route” button next to the preferred route and then tap “Confirm” when prompted.

After opening the preferred route, you can insert one or multiple favorite addresses into this route. To do so, first, go to “More” from the navigation menu and then select “Favorites” from the list.

Next, on the “Favorites” screen, tap on the address that you want to insert into the current route to open it. After that, tap on the insert icon in the top right corner of the screen and then tap “Confirm” when prompted.

By default, the selected address is inserted into the corresponding route as the last stop. Thus, if you have already started driving the route and visited particular stops on the route, the inserted address will not shift the original sequence of stops on this route. If you have not started driving the route and you want to place the inserted address at the most optimal sequence position within the route, you can re-optimize this route accordingly. To do so, tap on the “Replan Route” button on the “Stops” screen of the current route. Once the route is re-optimized, the inserted address will be placed at the most optimal sequence position accordingly.

Route4Me provides near real-time data synchronization across all associated computer and mobile devices so that whenever a new address is inserted into any planned route using Route4Me’s iOS and Android mobile apps, all updates instantly become available on the Route4Me Web Platform and vice versa.
