Can you "add destination" in Navigation and I'm missing it?

    On Google maps, I'm used to being able to create a route with multiple stops. I can't seem to figure out how (or IF) I can do this on the Droid Nav program. I don't want to have to sit in the parking lot after each leg and program up the next part of the route.

    Please tell me I'm missing something obvious!

    I just loaded up maps and I don't see a way either. Hmmm... hopefully we're both missing something and someone can show us. :)

    I have been wondering what all can be done with it as well. I also dont notice a trip log or speed indicator etc. that is found on my Garmin. Just wondering what all it can do.

    I've asked this before myself. It appears that Google Navigation doesn't have "waypoint" abilities yet.

    I haven't played around with My Maps Editor on the Droid yet but doesn't this let you edit your maps?

    Yeah but it still doesn't load them into Google Navigation.

    If you edit your map in the editor and save it, then bring up navigation and load the my maps layer, that doesn't work? I may be missing something here, thought you could do that.

    There isn't a "My maps" layer in Navigation...just in maps.

    You can bring up the My Maps layer in navigation, but after looking at it, it may not be useful as you still have to pick an end point, then directions, then navigate...

    you can set it up in Google maps on the PC, then save it to your map (online), then run the Google map app and select layers and find your newly created destination(s). I think this can also be done straight from the phone but have not tried it.
