My old Garmin Nuvi would sort Favorites by Distance, Because you would be using those the most.

The Uconnect does not seem to have this feature and lists them as they were input.

Any clues if this is possible?

Thanks,

Not sure I understand having favorites in navigation. Isn't navigation to help you get somewhere you don't know how to get to? And once you've been there, why do you need navigation to find it again?
 
I haven't discovered any way to sort recently visited places.

And for @scottmoyer I like to input the destination to get ETA as well as traffic alerts along my route. If there's nothing programmed in, if you try to find traffic alerts, you get overwhelmed. Or at least I do, in the greater Los Angeles megalopolis. With a destination programmed, I can limit it to along my route.
 
Does the nav try to reroute you, or does it just alert you to the traffic? The only reason I kept a nav window up in past cars was for traffic info, but I only used it to see how long the slow down lasted so I can reroute, if needed. I rarely use the navigation, so I wasn't sure what the benefit of favorites would be. Thanks for the feedback.

It will reroute.
 
Even though I know where I am going, The NAV keeps me updated on ETA.
Some destinations I have used once but I may keep in there for the off chance
I need them again. My NUVI I added POIs of all the covered bridges in New
England. So that I can photograph them if I want to. Sorting by Distance lets
me know how close I am to them.
