Yeah figured out the map marker thing now. Ticking it off didn't really help because it then just switched to the next one.

Just one of those things where the default behaviour isn't great and relies on the user to reconfigure.

Well, the behaviour is great if you're using markers only as short-term working "notes" and always ticking them off when you're done (use favourites for places you want to save longer-term). But yeah the marker feature doesn't explain how it wants you to use it.

I use the markers to loosely transcribe walking routes from books or the web then tick them off during my walk. I was always curious if this is what they're actually designed for, though.

I most commonly use them for marking the location of my car or campsite when going bushwalking and wanting to be certain I can find them again. Also sometimes for marking annotations I want to add to OpenStreetMap later...

I use them for Audax checkpoints, but given how they work and their iconography I suspect they're primarily for orienteering.
