Sat nav

[Scotia64]

I’ve lots of favourites on the sat nav , campsites, hotels etc . Is there a way of grouping hotels for example or even have the favourites list alphabetically? The way it is just now is pretty rubbish.

You can hit the edit button and sort them manually by dragging them up/down

Yeah I know that , but that’s still rubbish . Even if you could arrange the favourites alphabetically I would put them as campsite xyz or hotel cycle , all the campsites & hotels would be in one group.

Sorry I cant help you with the query but I have a question. If you voice command "lets go office/campsite" etc, does it work? I have an office address stored as favourite and on my command, it says no address found

Have you named the address as "office" ?

Yes Yes.

Edit: Voice command only works for "Lets go Home", all other favorite is found, however, returns an error "address empty or something"

When you approach a roundabout, does the SatNav tell you which exit to use, and which road number/name and destination?

EG: "At the roundabout take the third exit onto A123 towards Xtown".

Yes, it does.

Sorta kinda. And you can chose to have a male or female voice instructing you.

I've got Heads Up and so I get Sat Nav instructions appearing on:

1. The Main Screen
2. The Heads Up (very helpful at roundabouts)
3. The bottom of the Dashboard (also very helpful at roundabouts)

And of course, I also get 'the nice lady' telling me what to do as well. I can turn her Volume either Up or Down from the Steering Wheel.

I generally make Sat Nav entries by a first selection at:

a) First entering the post code in the 'Address' section or maybe
b) Selecting 'Recent' entries or maybe
c) Selecting 'Favourites'

Whilst you are driving you are given the ETA for your chosen Sat Nav Route and this varies according to what happens along the way to slow you down or speed you up.

My car is a 2020 model XC90 T6 Inscription and it is fitted with the latest 100GB Volvo SIM card. Accordingly, it receives all the latest Traffic Information and, if the Sat Nav gets Info' about Traffic Conditions, Road Works or Accidents, etc, etc. and thinks there are going to be delays or hold ups on the initially chosen Sat Nav Route it will present me with an Alternative Suggestion:

This will be, something like, "Because of hold ups ahead, would you like to add 8.7 miles to your route to save 19 minutes?"

If you choose to accept this suggestion, then it can be selected at the Steering Wheel by pressing the central control button on the RHS Control Stalk and the car will then use the new alternative/modified route.

I've used this particular feature several times and found it extremely helpful.
