    Default Looking for a GPS with certain features

    I am looking for a GPS that has a fairly big screen with which it is easy and quick to zoom in/zoom out on the map (like google map). Also I would like a feature to remove certain destinations from history but not all.

    Any idea ?

    Not possible in Garmin and TomTom devices. You can delete all but not one at a time.

    Thank you for your reply !

    Or TomTom Go

    I bought a Tomtom few years ago and I find it is very unconvenient to zoom out because : 1) its slow 2) it zooms in automatically while driving.
    Did they fix those 2 problems on those newer Tomtom GO models ?

    Concerning the history is there no product on the market that does that ? Is there no hack to implement this functionality ? If no is there a product that allow to disable history ?

    I'm not knowledgeable in TT matter, I hope someone else will read your post and reply here.
    Concerning Garmin, new models have fast processors and draw the map fast, zooming in and out.
    Autozoom:
    If the zoom level is set to "Auto", it is displayed as "Garmin" thinks is best., if you like you can disable it in maps Settngs.

    If you like a super moddable software try iGO on your Android phone.
