    Can anyone tell me how to designate an address as Home? I have checked the setting to "Show Home", but I cannot see anything showing this on the navigation screen, nor do I see any way to set the home location. It was easy on the gen 4.

    Based on my anecdotal experience with navigation locations they are saved in two places maybe 3: Phone app, car navigation app memory, and Toyota navigation servers. I have noticed that the favorites and home locations I have saved in the app do not automatically sync with the car navigation locations and I have to save each individually. In addition from memory the locations do not save if either the phone or the navigation system are not connected to the internet at the time of saving. So my recommendation for saving a location in either locations would be as follows.

    1. Verify that either phone or in car navigation have an active internet connection.
    2. On either phone or car navigation system tap on the home location which will open a screen that says ‘set home location’
    3. Enter address, tap on it, and click save.
