If you wish to navigate to the settlement displayed in the top centre of the screen, just tap Done before entering any letters. The search result will be the centre point of the city (where its name is displayed on the map). Note: This point is not the geometrical centre but an arbitrarily selected point chosen by the creators of the map, usually the most important intersection in case of a small town or village, and for larger cities an important intersection in the city centre. Selecting a street If you are looking for an address or an intersection within the selected settlement (shown at the top of the page), you need to first enter the street name you are looking for. Tip: If you are looking for an intersection, choose the street that has a rare or unusual name first. This way you need to enter fewer letters to get the list of results. You may also choose the shorter of the two streets first. This way it will be faster to choose the second one from the list of crossing streets after the first street has been selected. Tip: You can search for both the type and the name of a road. If you have the same name appear as Street, Avenue, Boulevard, Road, Place and Court, you can get the result faster by giving the first letter of this, too. For example searching for 'Pi A' will result in Pine Avenue skipping all Pine Streets and Pine Roads. Tip: Should the name of the street be a prefix for several other street names, just enter the whole name, press Done, and the exact match will be the first in the list. This way you can easily find even very short street names. As soon as you select a street, you are automatically taken to the House Number Input screen (Page 110). Selecting a house number from several streets If you are uncertain which of the result streets contain the house number you are looking for, tap Search In All, and proceed to the House Number Input screen without selecting the street first. Enter the house number, tap Done, and a list appears with 109
