Upon turning on the unit it will begin a bread crumb trail of where you go. If you want to return home it will show you on a map where you have been. If you set a way point at any time you can find your way back to that point. Just remember that if your electronics fail and you have no idea where you are you will be cooked!

With this unit you can mark your waypoints as you travel, so you can return to your starting place using the way points you entered earlier. You could also enter know waypoints from a map such as google earth. A built in topo. map is not part of this unit.

There is a "Maps" app that comes installed. If you allow it to do so, (and you have Wi-Fi or a data connection) it will show you where you are and give directions to a destination. It doesn't actually give the GPS coordinates but there is an app for that too (I use "My Altitude").

No, it does not give you directions. However it will show a map where it was last located.

As far as I remember you can follow your reverse course. It doesn't have "maps" as such, but plots your course and gives you your current location. I used it for a backup on my sailboat and just logged the lat/Lon on my charts along with my DR plotting. Since there are no maps but only plotted waypoints, you can use this anywhere you have GPS sat. coverage.

Do not quite understand the question but if u put in the state and address of your location or the zip code it will give u your location

Yes, all three of the POI's you mentioned are installed on the TT One 3rd maps. You do not need to enter the address to go there. Just search for a POI of interest then select and let the GPS navigate you there.

Yes you can center your location or starting Lat and Long and a directional arrow will point out the way you need to go.

Yes, you can "Set location" for somewhere else, but I don't recall how to do that. I guess find the address, and maybe the "Set location" option pops up then? But mine finds satellites fairly quickly, even if it's been turned off. If it takes more than 5 minutes, turn it off and start over. Mine usually finds them in a minute or less. I think it does it faster if you turn it on before you start moving. HTHS--

Hello Derick. I am sorry I have not responded before.Yes you can. The GPS is programmed to use Lat and Long and UTM co-ordinates.

Yes. It'll show the related street names and you can pick then correct one. But you can't enter City or State or Zip Code. It'll search in Current State + 5 nearby States. Most of the time, I get the correct address which I want. You can use Voice Command -> Find Place option to search for well-known stores/places like Walmart, Costco. It's helpful for me to find stores including nearby cities.

yes but the maps are very general area. you need to mark a location as home to backtrack to it. it in not a substitute for a map as it is too general area.

In geocaching I've had very good success getting close to ground zero, although thick tree cover does sometimes cause the Magellan to take a little time to zero in on my location. You can put in latitude and longitude by adding a waypoint. It's pretty easy to do, but not the most intuitive thing to figure out the first time you try it.

Correct, but remember, the "place" is entered as a latitude and longitude in decimal format. Not a big deal if you observe from only one or two places, but a great help if you get around. No need to look up the latitude and longitude or keep a list of them. Just start an alignment, wait a bit for the device to read the satellites signal, then align as usual. I like mine and recommend it.
1585715
Yes, but one time only. If you revisit that location the system remembers the address that you entered thereafter.

No. This is a "basic" unit that has only two buttons and stores up to three locations - just mark your starting location and forget it until it's time to return. When you're ready to return, select your location and the BackTrack displays direction and distance to travel. Use it to find your car in a crowded parking lot, your treestand or the trailhead. I am directionally challenged and this simply points me back to where I need to go when I'm on the trail and don't know how to get back. It's been a great safety net and simple to use, but not elaborate.
