I don´t know since when it was changed, but with 3.0.90 I can´t move under "MY PLACES" "MY FAVOURITES" by holding und moving. I can only hold and tip "Move up" or "Move down". In "MY ROUTES" I can hold and move the route up and down. In "GPS RECORDING" I can´t move them anyway!? I know that "FAVOURITES" have worked before the way "ROUTES" work now. New favourites are put always to the end of the list. Therefore it is much better to hold and move instead of hold an tip "Move up" many times to get the favourite to the top. I know I can sort them with A-Z or Z-A, but that is not the same. I want the favourites sorted the way I use them often!!
Hi tomas, thanks for answer, but that can´t be the reason. It has been the other way before and it works with "MY ROUTES" but does nor work with "MY FAVORITES"!?
Sorry, don´t understand, my english is not so good: Try WHAT? Do you mean try to change the android settings? I have Android 6.0.1. What do I have to change? I have many submenues in vision!? But why should the developer make a difference in moving the points between "MY FAVOURITES" and "MY ROUTES"?? And I know, that this constellation has change before. I know definitely that I could move the favourites by hold and move in "MY FAVOURITES" last year!!!
How ever. I have seen in other discussions, that there are screenshots in the comments, how did they manage that? Copy and paste does not work, too many characters.
You will have to upload images to a server like www.fotos-hochladen.net. There you get a link, which you can insert into to field klicking on the "Insert Image" icon in the editing menu of a post.
I don´t find that settings. Could you send a screenshot of your settings? I tried with a Samsung S3 mini Android 4.2.2 there it works with "MY FAVOURITES". I can hold and move the favourites and the routes!! On an Samsung Tab 4 with Android 5.0.2 it does not work, ther I can only hold and move the routes, as on my Samsung S5!? All three have the latest Version 3.0.103.
Now I got that setting! The reason was, that I deactivated "TALKBACK", because I thought I wouldn´t need it. Now I could set the "Switch access" to "On". But that changed nothing in Navigator. I can´t hold and move in "MY FAVOURITES", only in "MY ROUTES"!!??
I can confirm this misbehavior. In My Places, items in My Routes can be moved by drag and drop, whereas in Favorites, trying to drag an item opens a dialog which, among other options, offers to move the item up or down.
Don't know if it's a bug or a feature, also from formerly versions, I don't know any other behaviour. It's a kind of beauty mistake which is not essential to survive with MFN in the outbacks ;)
Just to understand: where is the difference between "FAVOURITES" ans "MYPLACES"?
Both are xml. files: "favourites.xml" and "routing_points.xml" and I could change the sorting in an editor.
What has this to do with visually impaired settings?
As you can see in my former notes, I found a correction on my old Samsung S5 as I activated "TALKBACK"!? Then I could see and change the "Switch access".
Now on my new A40, I installed TALKBACK, but found no switch to make a change!?
And has someone an idea, where I can look for them in Android 10, Samsung A40?? German version?
2highlander: I agree, it not essential, but I have about 10 "normal" favourites. Now I planned a holiday with several overnight stays, which I want to have at the top of my favourite list for the next weeks. But every new favourite goes to the end of the favourite list an I have to move each of them manually to the top.
Even with 10 existing favourites it means 10 times clicking and moving up with 15 favourites means together 150 times clicking and moving!!! It could be much much easier with holding and moving.
I never understood the different behavior of Favourites/My Routes. What behavior ever, it would make more sense if both would behave in the same way ...
Galaxy S5 and S9+, both voice assi off, same behavior. My Routes is dragdrop, Favourites are not.
As you mentioned Samsung Galaxys, I also checked my S4, Android 10, Navigator 6.0.233, same Android settings. Moving Favourites by dragging does NOT work on this device. Just clicking and moving up 1 step. Same LineageOS version 17.1 as my Xiaomi where everything works. For me that seems to be also device dependent. Very strange.
Edit: checking Sony M4 Aqua, Android 6.01 Sony Std, Navigator 6.0.228 and 233, all works ok
MacDony: That doesn´t help me. If I have 10 older favorites, and I plan another route with 5 new favorites, they are all at the bottum of the column. To get them to the top, I would have to rename all of them!!

As you can see above, you wrote that you could replicate it by setting voice assistant on in accessibility/screen reader, but I have it off!
And Uli said that it works on XIAOMI Redmi Note 4, Android 10, Navigator 6.0.233, but it does NOT work on
Samsung Galaxy S4, Android 10, Navigator 6.0.233.
higlander said it does NOT work on his Galaxy S5 and S9+
So there must be a fault depending on the hardware!!??
