How to add, reorder and remove destinations

Video guide · 0:41Updated

Click Add destination to search for a new stop, drag a stop by the handle on its left to reorder it, and open More actions on a stop and choose Delete to remove it. Mappi redraws the routes after every change.

Step by step

  1. Add a destination

    Click Add destination at the bottom of the list and search for a place. New stops are added at the end of the journey, connected to the previous stop by a route.

  2. Drag to reorder

    Hover a stop and drag it by the grip handle in the timeline column on its left. Drop it where it should go in the journey. Driving, walking, sailing and transit routes are recalculated for the new order.

  3. Remove a stop

    Hover the stop, click More actions (the menu icon on the right of the row) and choose Delete. The routes on either side are joined up again.

Good to know

  • Free and guest maps hold up to 5 destinations, and Pro maps as many as you need. Only stops count, not the routes between them. See how many destinations a map can have.
  • If a Drive, Walk, Sail or Transit route can’t be found after you reorder or delete a stop, that route switches back to Fly and a notice explains why. See route couldn’t be found.
  • To swap a stop for a different place without losing its style, use Change destination instead of deleting it.
