How to Name a Location in Maps?!

Help!


Does anyone know how to NAME a location in Maps after you have added the location to Favourites?


Is this Community still active? Seems to have fallen out of use?


THANK YOU IF SO!

Yes. You are right. It says See All. I do that, thy are listed, and I can open the address I'm trying to name. I see a blank named "Label" right over the address which seems like it would be the place to name the address. But it won't let me type into it. No chance to edit.

Thank you for trying!

I think I may have just done it by typing the name in front of the street address on the same line. Interesting! THANK YOU for your help!! I hope this really works... it may! Cheers.


Do you know if the Community is alive and well? I see quite a few out of date entries and it makes me wonder.


I Appreciate your help!!

Tried booting the phone. Nope. Label still doesn't work. Just sits there not letting me type into it. But I just tested squeezing the name of another place directly in front of its address, on the same line, and it works. THANK YOU! I wouldn't have gotten to that, and this is really helpful.


I seriously think Apple has lost it on their software design. Yesterday I spent two days and three Apple Support people before figuring out that their book templates would not allow me to change the order of pages, or delete one at a time. Crazy making.


I sure appreciate your help today. Thank you for your time and effort!! A lot!
