I've noticed something strange on my 740 when I use the voice command to navigate to a favorite.
The initial process works fine and goes like this...
I tap the voice recognition icon and state "Navigate to a favorite". The unit confirms if I indeed want to navigate to a favorite and then asks me to make a selection from my list of available favorites by stating one of the corresponding numbers, which is listed in front of each favorite. Let's assume I want to go to work and the destination "Work" is at the third position in my list. I then state "3" and the unit confirms "Do you want to navigate to Work?"
The unit actually confirms the destination by "speaking" the name of the favorite, which is a nice feature because it lets you know that you made the right selection. Now here's where it get's strange though.
After confirming my selection (by "speaking" the name of the destination) the unit picks another favorite from my list and routes me there instead. This morning for example I used the voice recognition feature to map the route to my work but instead the 740 routed me to my wife's grandparent's house in Florida. I'm in Illinois!
The same happened on my way to pick up my daughter from daycare. Instead of the daycare it tried to route me to another favorite destination.
The only way for me to navigate to a favorite destination right now is to do it the old fashioned way.
Has anyone else experienced this? As with most problems of this kind, I suppose it's a software glitch but if anyone has any fixes it would be greatly appreciated if you could share them.
