Whoops--okay. I've been out of the loop for a little while, and I guess that support's now been added. Thanks for the correction.

Ok version 10.0.33 is not freezing up like the prior 10.0.3x.

Although is sync going to replace existing waypoints or really perform a sync type function?

Took the risk and allowed for it to "overwrite" (argh... not a true sync function), went to go see if I have the other devices waypoints and nothing.

Clearly users need more design information on how this is supposed to work.

Walter,

I'm stuck not knowing what the next step is. As far as I can tell 10.0.33 is not working. Please suggest a next step.

What I really want to do is merge the many different waypoints from my three devices and then keep them sync.

When they are saved on the cloud, is there a way to edit them there?

B,

To do what you want, you might need to just wait a bit longer. Version 1 of this feature allows flight plans and trails to do a proper "sync", but the custom waypoints is more of a "setting" and it will overwrite, as you have discovered.
