Using Suggested Routes
Before you can use this feature, you must save at least one location and enable the travel history feature
(
Device and Privacy Settings, page 44
).
Using the myTrends
™
feature, your device predicts your destination based on your travel history, the day of the

the navigation bar on the map, along with the estimated time of travel, and traffic information.
Select the navigation bar to view a suggested route to the location.
