It's no problem to create user waypoints in a folder on your PC, sync them with the cloud, then sync with the cloud also on your mobile device, at which point you'll see that folder there too. If you've created your waypoint in a folder that's locked to your device, you can move them first to a syncable folder.

I searched a solution and did what you tell me,it worked,but you confirm now it is well done.And effectively it work,but i find it dangerous ,if you forget to synchronize. In general,why are there differences between computer and tablet.Why not transfer the personal waypoints automaticly to the cloud,like the routes,etc... Having tell that,fantastic app,I am from belgium ,so english is not my mother language...

At the moment we are happy for it to be manual but will revisit this in the future.
