Keeping saved locations neat and organised is something many of us struggle with. Whether you save places for work, travel, family visits, shopping, deliveries, or emergencies, the list slowly becomes long - and confusing. Many users end up scrolling through dozens of names just to find one place.
But with a proper system, your map can become extremely easy to understand. The simplest way to achieve this is by using Location Categories, smart naming, colour-coded pins, and regular clean-up.
This guide covers easy and practical methods anyone in India can follow - whether you save just a few favourite spots or handle hundreds of locations every month.
1. Why Organising Saved Locations Matters
Most people save locations for everyday needs:
- Home and family places
- Clients and office sites
- Shopping and service locations
- Temples, schools, hospitals
- Travel itineraries and hotel stays
- Delivery routes
- Personal favourites like cafes or salons
If these are added without any system, the list becomes messy.
Organising them saves time, reduces confusion, and allows you to reach places faster.
2. Use Location Categories to Keep Your Map Naturally Organised
In modern location apps like TejasView, categories are extremely useful because they define:
- Map pin icon
- Pin colour
- Border style
As soon as you choose a category, all locations under it automatically follow the same look. This means:
- Your map always stays visually organised
- Important locations stand out
- Similar places are easy to spot
- You don’t need to manually re-arrange anything
A big advantage:
You can create new categories anytime with your own icon and colour choices.
For example:
- Red briefcase icon → Work Sites
- Blue house icon → Personal
- Green leaf icon → Farm or Agriculture
- Yellow star icon → Favourite Places
This level of customisation keeps your map clean, even if you add hundreds of points.
3. Name Locations Clearly and Consistently
A properly named location is the biggest time-saver.
Use clear and short names
Good examples:
- “Patel Super Market – Kalawad Road”
- “Client Office – Riddhi Plastics – Rajkot”
- “Temple – Swaminarayan – University Road”
Include identifiers if needed
If you have multiple similar places, add:
- Area
- Branch
- Building name
- Purpose
Example:
- “Work Site – Warehouse A – Surat”
- “Restaurant – Honest – 150 Feet Ring Road”
Keep it neat
Don’t use long sentences or inside jokes.
Name it like someone else could understand it instantly.
4. Separate Work and Personal Locations
In India, most people mix work sites with personal places. This makes the map confusing.
Use different categories such as:
- Personal
- Family & Relatives
- Work – Clients
- Work – Projects
- Work – Urgent
- Travel – Plans
- Travel – Completed
This way your map becomes structured, and you instantly know where each location belongs.
5. Use Colours, Icons, and Borders to Improve Clarity
Since categories control colour and icon, use visual elements wisely.
Colour suggestions
- Red: High priority or urgent
- Green: Routine or personal
- Blue: Office, business, professional
- Yellow: Temporary or attention needed
- Purple: Travel or special occasions
Icons for quick identification
- Home → Personal
- Briefcase → Work
- Car → Travel / Transport
- Star → Favourite
- Heart → Special places
- Wrench → Service or vendors
You can decide your own logic.
6. Manage Large Lists With Smart Grouping
If you have lots of locations - for business, deliveries, fieldwork, or travel - grouping becomes essential.
Split categories into smaller segments
Instead of one big “Work” category, make:
- Work – Clients
- Work – Ongoing Projects
- Work – Vendors
- Work – Completed Sites
Archive old entries
Move finished tasks or old locations to an “Archive” category.
Use naming patterns
Example for work:
ClientName – SiteName – City
This keeps the list sorted and clean.
Remove duplicates
Avoid saving the same location multiple times.
7. Add Tags or Labels for Extra Context
Tags help when one place belongs to multiple purposes.
Examples of useful tags:
- “shopping”
- “maintenance”
- “meeting point”
- “monthly visit”
- “favourite”
- “family event”
- “priority client”
Tags make searching easier without disturbing the main category structure.
8. Review and Clean Up Your Locations Regularly
A quick review once a week or once a month can completely transform your map.
Check for:
- Wrong or unclear names
- Duplicate entries
- Places that need new categories
- Locations that can be archived
- Missing tags
Think of it like cleaning your phone gallery - small clean-ups make a big difference.
9. Create New Categories Based on Your Current Needs
The biggest advantage of TejasView is that you can add categories anytime with your chosen icon and colour.
This helps when:
- You start a new project
- You begin a new business
- You shift to a new city
- You go on a trip
- You want to separate a unique set of places
Examples:
- “2025 New Business Clients”
- “Navratri Temple Visits”
- “Wedding Shopping List”
- “Bengaluru Travel Spots”
- “Real Estate Site Visits”
Your map evolves with your life.
10. A Simple Structure You Can Follow
Here is a clean and effective organisation model for Indian users:
1. Categories
Broad groups with icons and colours (Personal, Work, Travel, Emergency, Favourite).
2. Names
Short, clear, location-friendly names.
3. Tags
Extra identification like “Urgent”, “Family”, “Pending work”.
4. Regular Cleanup
Monthly check to keep everything tidy.
This method works for anyone - from homemakers to travellers to business owners to field workers.
