Is there a way to change the trigger time (for example I want a poi to
announce if it is farther away then 300 feet or I want to ignore a poi if it
is between these distances.

The feature I am going to discuss today is POIs in LookAround mode.
1. The heading and distance has been dropped from the LookAround POI
when it triggers. You will see the name of the POI then either it's
category/sub category then the side of the street the POI is located
on. For example Burger King, Restaurant, right side.
2. You can press P to get the name, category, subcategory,
heading/distance, baring, and side of the street if known. For
example, Burger King, Restaurant, 300 feet ahead, right side.
3. You will only see the side of the street if the following
conditions are met: the POI is located on the street you are traveling
down and if you have a heading. If you change direction, once your
heading is updated the side of the street for the POI will change.
Lets use the Burger King example above. When I travel north down the
street Burger King is on my right. I turn around, once my heading
updates to south, Burger King will now be on my left side.
4. The side of the street information is also located in the POI
details, Press SPACE with P or READ with P and scroll down the POI
details or press the letter G to jump quickly to the side of street
detail.
