Default Enter addresses into GPS from computer?

We have over 50 hospital addresses.
Takes too long landing on and selecting letters and numbers in the GPS system.

Any ideas?
Thank you.

You can enter them through your phone when using the Enform app. Go into the Destination Search feature, enter address, and click Save. Then, in the car, go into your apps, select "Saved Destinations", sync, and you're good to go.

To do them from your computer, you need the eDestinations feature, which Lexus only makes available when you buy Safety Connect. To use this, you log into your lexusdrivers.com account, add the address, and send it to your car.

Hope that helps.

Then your best bet is to do it from Enform on your phone. I do this a lot and it's quick and easy.

How about using voice commands to enter an address? That can be done while driving.

Thank you, all.
Arrived at the blood center and the hospital added on to their order of blood and platelets for a gunshot trauma.

While waiting, I was able to find and click on "medical" category and save the hospitals in the GPS system to "Destinations" list.
Once I figured out the steps, was much easier than entering each address manually.
One new hospital is not in the 2013 GPS system. Must find its address and type it in.

Disliked that the electrical system turned itself off after 10? minutes to prevent battery drain.
With everything else tuned off, there is not much battery drain.
