How can I add, edit, or remove Places?

  • Updated

You can save places to make it easier to find the locations that matter to you on the map. The free version of Watch Duty lets you save one place, while members can save unlimited places.

Places are private and only visible to you. This applies even on a Watch Duty Teams account. Whether saved using Add Place or through the map search-and-save flow, each team member's saved Places are individual and are not shared or visible to other members on the same team.
