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 I see quite a few out of date entries and it makes me wonder.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!
I wouldn't delete it, not worth it. Just restart the phone.
Might say “see all.”
this should help too https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/save-favorite-places-iph6838243e8/ios
In maps on the iPhone:
Where the favorites are listed, tap "more."
Tap the info icon (the "I" in the circle)
Edit the label
Thank you, Muguy! But I don't see 'more' anywhere!
I'd try restarting either Maps or the Phone (and be sure your software is up to date). You should be able to type directly into the label field.
Yup. Pretty active all the time. Some topics more so than others (iCloud and iPhone especially), but folks are around.
I haven't restarted maps for ages. Will do. I'll let you know if it works.
Oh, dear. Afraid to delete the Maps app.
When I reinstall it will it remember my addresses? Or will it be blank, do you happen to know?
