Trip Planning on Your Mobile Device
You can use CoPilot on your mobile device for trip planning. Planning Mode allows you to run
a trip on your mobile device even when you're not in your car. You'll get driving directions and
maps that you can use for reference before your trip begins.
1. First turn on your mobile device
and launch CoPilot (tap Programs >
CoPilot). In the Going to Screen, tap
the Mode button and select Planning.
3. Note: the first stop (0) on the Plan
Trip list is the starting point of your
trip. If you have a GPS fix, CoPilot will
use that as the starting point.
2. The Plan Trip screen will open.
Tap Add Stop, then add stops to your
trip as you would in Guidance Mode.
To pick a stop from the map, see p. 19.
4. Now you’ll see your route on the
map. You can tap the zoom buttons on
the toolbar to zoom your view in and
out.

5. To see driving directions, tap the
View button, then tap the Itinerary
button in the nested toolbar that
pops up.

itinerary, can be saved and then opened
later in Guidance Mode (see below).
