3.1.1.6 Tips on entering addresses quickly
When you are entering the name of a city/town or a street:
Only those letters are offered on the keyboard that appear in
possible search results. All other characters are greyed out.
As you are typing, the most likely result is always displayed in
the input field. If the guess is correct, tap
to select it.
After entering a couple of letters, tap
to
list the items that contain the specified letters.
You can speed up finding an intersection:
Search first for the street with a less common or less usual
name; fewer letters are enough to find it.
If one of the streets is shorter, search for that one first. You
can then find the second one faster.
You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If the same
word appears in several names, for example in the name of streets,
roads and avenues, you can obtain the result faster if you enter the
first letter of the street type: For example, enter 'PI A' to obtain Pine
Avenue and skip all Pine Streets and Pickwick Roads.
You can also search in postal codes. As postal codes consist of only
a few characters, this is usually faster than entering the name of the
city/town.
