Saved Places: Name Home, Work and Your Regular Stops

Home, Work, Gym. Not street addresses.

Save the places you go often and Odo uses their names everywhere: on trips, in filters, in tagging rules and in navigation.

Why it matters

A log full of street addresses is hard to read. “Home → Work” is not. Saved places also make the rest of Odo smarter, from tagging business trips to comparing your commute.

Save a place.

Add places in Garage → Manage → Saved Places, or tap Save Place on a trip or on one of its stops.

  • A name and one of 12 icons
  • Match radius from 25 m to 1 km, 150 m by default
  • Trips that start or end inside it show its name
  • Delete a place and trips show the street address again

Put it to work.

Saved places feed the features that organize your trips.

  • Auto-tag rules by start, end, either, or passing through with a minimum stop
  • Trip filter by place
  • Route History matching around the place
  • Named stops along a trip

Drive there.

Saved places appear in navigation search on your iPhone and in CarPlay, and Siri can take you there.

  • “Hey Siri, navigate to Home with Odo”
  • Listed in CarPlay destinations

Questions about Saved Places

How do I label trips as home to work?

Save Home and Work as places in Garage → Manage → Saved Places. Trips that start or end inside them show those names, and an auto-tag rule can tag every trip between them, for example as Commute.

What radius should I use?

The default 150 m suits most homes and offices. Use a larger radius for big sites such as a campus or an airport, and a smaller one where two saved places are close together.

Does deleting a place change my trips?

Only the label. Trips go back to showing the street address. The trip data itself isn’t changed.

Can I auto-start trips when I leave home or arrive at work?

Yes. Create a Shortcuts automation for Leave → Home that runs Start or Resume Trip, and Arrive → Home that runs Stop Trip. Full answer
