Two Google Navigation Questions

[shobuddy]

YouTube - ‪Google Maps Navigation (Beta): search along route‬‏

The google video above makes it sound like a google navigation user can find a specific restaurant (In-N-Out Burger) along a route. Is this possible? I can only see where it will display ALL restaurants along a route, not even sortable by cuisine.

Also, is it possible to add layers to Google Navigation? There are about 6 or 7 that come w/the app but Google maintains many more layers in some of their other map products. Is it possible to add any of them to Google Navigation?

Thanks

If you're actively navigating along a route, you can indeed search for specific places close to your route. Hit menu>search, and type in the restaurant's name.

As for layers, I don't think you can download extras. I'm pretty sure that what it comes with is all you get.

Thanks! The search function is pretty neat.
