Is there a way to find a POI by city? Because ever time I enter the
POI database it always gives me a list near my current location, when
I want to find a store (such as Target) that's 30 miles away.

Thanks for help!

It would help if you said what Garmin unit you are using.

I'm not by my 1490, but off the top of my head an easy way to do it would be
to tell it to navigate you to the desired city. Then go back into the POI
section and hit the "Near" button, select destination, then finish diving
into the POI category.

Yeah that's what I ended up doing. But would have been nice to be
able to navigate to the destination from the getgo. Hopefully the
next firmware update.... %^)
