Apparently I am a dofus, as I cannot figure out how to enter and go to a direct GPS location.
I cannot find the 'location selector' dialog, and the search icon only search for points.
I just want to enter a GPS coordinate and have it displayed on the map.

Hi,
there is many options how to do it.

Probably the most easy is to use a "Route planner" for this task. Check our manual for more info here.

Without opening the route planner:

  • Insert your coordinates in the search field.
  • Confirm the coordinates by clicking on the entry.
  • Map moves to this coordinates.

Altenative 1:

  • Copy your coordinates from any source.
  • Open global search (magnifying glass icon).
  • Click the hamburger button at the top right.
  • Choose "Location". Click "Search".
  • The "Move to..." dialogue box opens.
  • Choose Clipboard.

  • Map moves to this coordinates.

Alternative 2:

Ah, sorry, I've incorrectly understood "enter and go to" that you would like to start navigation to this place. Thanks @Graf Geo .
