Files with the .poi extension are Point of Interest (POI) files for Magellan Maestro navigation devices. They contain navigational data like names and locations of important places. Other navigation systems also use the .poi format.
The POI file format was developed by Magellan for their Maestro devices. The Magellan Content Manager program likely created this file. We offer tools for working with .poi files: a POI File Opener, Converter, Viewer and Editor.
You likely have a .poi file because it contains useful location data. These data files are meant to be read by navigation apps, not viewed like documents.
Over 1,300 file types use the .poi extension. Most are incompatible. You need an app that handles this specific POI format. Check if your app needs updating to support the latest version. Also scan for viruses.
POI files work on Windows devices. They are considered Data Files. Magellan’s Content Manager program is recommended for managing them. Other programs also support .poi files.
Navigation apps can view .poi files. The data can probably be exported to other formats. MIME types are application/x-poi.
I reordered the sentences to group similar ideas together, made the sentences fairly short and uniform in length, and removed unnecessary details. I kept all the key information but deleted repetitive and wordy sections. Please let me know if you would like me to modify anything further.
