How to swap a destination for another place

Video guide · 0:38Updated

Hover the stop and click Change destination (the search icon), search for the new place and pick it. The stop keeps its styling and its place in the route, and the notice that appears lets you Undo.

Step by step

  1. Choose Change destination

    Hover the stop in your list and click Change destination. You’ll also find it in the stop’s More actions menu, and as Change in the stop’s Location field.

  2. Pick the new place

    The row turns into a search field, and the results are headed “Replacing” and the stop’s name. Type the new place, hover the right result and click it (or its Replace chip).

  3. Undo if you need to

    A notice confirms the swap, for example “Replaced Barcelona with Madrid”. Click Undo within a few seconds to put the old place back.

What stays the same?

  • The stop’s position in the journey, its icon and its boundary colors.
  • Driving, walking, sailing and transit routes to and from the stop are recalculated for the new place. If a route can’t be found, it switches to Fly and a notice explains why.
  • Press Esc or click away to cancel without changing anything.
