Detour Feature
CoPilot’s Detour Feature allows you to preview an alternate route before deciding whether
or not to take it. Perfect for situations in which traffic has suddenly slowed ahead of you,
the Detour Feature will generate an alternate route. You can then make an informed decision
about whether you’re better off driving through the delay or taking the new route.
1. To see an alternate route,
tap the top of the screen
to invoke the toolbar.
2. Tap on the Detour
button to request a new
route.
3. If you decide to use
the new route, just keep
driving.
4. If you decide not to
use the new route, tap the
top of the screen to open the
toolbar, then tap the Cancel
Detour button.
5. CoPilot will then return
you to your original route.

Selective Routing
CoPilot allows you to be selective about the roads you take on your trip. There are two ways
to do this: 1) you can customize your Trip Itinerary in Guidance Mode so that CoPilot will
avoid certain roads; or 2) you can guide CoPilot’s route by entering stops as “waypoints”.
Avoiding a Road in the Trip Itinerary
1. Tap the View button (second from the left on the guidance screen toolbar) then tap the
Itinerary option. The Itinerary lists all roads you will be traveling on if you have entered at
least one destination.
2. Highlight the road you want to avoid by
tapping it once.
3. Tap the Avoid button, and CoPilot will
calculate a new route that avoids that road.
This can be repeated. If there is no other
possible road or the alternate route is too
impractical, a new route won’t be generated.
4. To Return to the Original Route: You
can return to the original route that CoPilot
gave you at any time by tapping the Cancel
button.
Tailoring Your Route Using Waypoints
CoPilot lets you customize a route by designating some stops as “waypoints”. Waypoints
appear on the Itinerary but they’re not treated like stops in Guidance Mode and or in routing
instructions. You can enter a waypoint along a road you want CoPilot to use, and CoPilot will
guide you through the waypoint toward your destination.
To designate a place as a waypoint, enter it as a stop in the Going To screen. Tap and hold the
location on the Going To list until a menu pops up, then choose Set as Waypoint. Waypoints
appear on the Going To list preceded by “>>” instead of a stop number. To turn the location
into a stop again, repeat and choose Set as Stop. You can set as many waypoints as you like
on a trip; however, CoPilot will always recognize the last address in the Going To list as a stop.
