1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a navigation device, a route request including a departure location and a destination location;
determining, by the navigation device, that the departure location or destination is a frequent location associated with the navigation device;
generating, by the navigation device, navigation directions; and
presenting, by the navigation device, a subset of the navigation directions, the subset of navigation directions excluding one or more navigation directions for leaving the departure location if the departure location is determined to be a frequent location or excluding one or more navigation directions for arriving at the destination location if the destination location is determined to be a frequent location.

Abstract
Frequency-based direction guidance is disclosed. In some implementations, a navigation system leverages frequent location information to filter navigation directions that are presented to a user of a navigation device. If a destination is a frequent location, the navigation system filters the navigation directions so that navigation directions associated with the destination are not presented to the user. If a departure location is a frequent location, the navigation system filters the directions so that directions associated with the departure location are not presented to the user.
