Learn how current location, map center, and saved places affect the cards you see in Topo.

Use the Map and Places in Topo

Overview

Cards in Topo are affected not only by your current location, but also by the current map center. You can move the map to an area you want to explore, return to current location, and save frequently used places.

What You Can Do

  • Move back to your current location
  • View cards near the map center
  • Save the current map center as a favorite place
  • Open a place you saved earlier

Steps

  1. Move the map to the area you want to inspect.
  2. Use current location when you want to return to where you are.
  3. Save often-used places from the current map center.
  4. Reopen a saved place to view cards there.

Notes

  • The visible card list changes with the map center.
  • If there are few nearby cards, Topo may show cards from a slightly farther area.
  • Location access is required to use current location features.

If It Doesn’t Work

  • If you cannot return to your current location, check location permission.
  • If cards do not match the place you expect, review the map center.
  • If a saved place is not useful, update its keyword or save it again.
