What is a Favorite Location?
Updated over a month ago

The Favorite Locations feature gives you the ability to name addresses that you travel to often (ie. Home, Office, Client Site, Grocery Store, Gym, etc.) as a way for you to easily identify your trips.

For example, if you create a Favorite Location for your Client Site, you’ll easily be able to identify those trips as Business, while if you create a Favorite Location for your Gym, you’ll easily be able to identify that those trips are Personal.

In fact, you can even create rules to automatically tag those drives as Business/Personal.

Favorite Locations have a geofence radius of approximately 0.1 miles, meaning that starting or ending addresses within this area will display the name of your Favorite Location. Consequently, it is not possible to create multiple Favorite Locations within a 0.1 mile radius, as addresses in such close proximity are recognized as duplicates due to the geofence.

Add a Favorite Location

There are 2 ways to create a Favorite Location:

Manually add a Favorite Location

  1. In the mobile app, tap the gear icon in the Mileage tab, or on the web app, click the gear icon in the top right corner

  2. Select ‘Favorite Locations’

  3. Tap the ‘+’ sign in the top right corner

  4. Enter the name and address of your Favorite Location

  5. Click ‘Save’

Add a Favorite Location directly on a Tracked Drive

  1. Select the drive you want to set as a Favorite Location and navigate to the start/end location field

  2. Click the blue star next to the address you want to name

  3. You’ll see a pop up prompting you to name the address

  4. Enter the name you want

  5. Select ‘Save Location’ button

Hurdlr also allows you to create Mileage Rules tied to these locations so that if you drive from one favorite location to another, it will automatically be tagged for you. Read more about creating Mileage Rules for your Favorite Locations here.
