Now when HERE Maps soon is gone for us & Maps is the alternative from MS, I have a question after having used the Microsoft Maps 5.1603.1380.0 in two of my Lumias (925 & 930) when having an approx 900km road trip this week between Sweden - Denmark - Sweden. Just to "push the limit", I primarily used the old h/w to see what it still is capable of. The L925 @ W10M 10586.338 did the job, no failures even when using it for navigation more than 4h from start to stop. Only charging was needed.
The Microsoft Maps worked over all, quite well. Sometimes hard to find addresses with the search, I don't know why because finally I found them. The voice guidance was sometimes a bit late. But over all I think it was okey for this trip.
The question.
When being abroad, I don't always have mobile data & internet connection. I then found out that my MS Maps favorites/waypoints wasn't available. I seems as I need to have internet access & be logged in with my MS account to get the favorites. I found a "work around" for this trip, start the Maps app & open favorites when having WiFi f.x. at the Hotel & not shutting down the Maps app. But if something fails, the favorites are "gone" until next internet session.
Maybe I have missed something. But isn't it possible in some way to have the favorites saved/synced into the phone even in offline mode / No internet access?
