How to navigate to anywhere specific using this unit?

I got my 1030 plus the other day, updated via the embarrassing express app. 

However I can't find anything on the map.   If I go navigate > browse map this is totally useless because for one if I knew where something was I would not need a freaking GPS and two, there are no names for anything on the map.  If I try to find something by shape of the cost like this is defeated because when I zoom out the land is a huge white lego brick and the ocean is a blue brick.  It doesn't match up to any real shape and I have no idea where I am looking and even if I did, see point one.

The only other option I can see is search > cities which blows my mind.  Its a list of random distances and compass bearings.  Maybe if I head in one of those directions Ill find something?...  I dont know what the *** this feature is about, but apparently there are 30 or so cities within 1km of my house?  Someone explain this nonsense?  Why isnt search > cities a list of cities?  What is it actually displaying?

So yeah, how do you actually navigate on this thing? On my phone I open maps search for "sushi beach" and I get directions.  On wahoo I select take me to, type in "zushi beach" and get directions.  On this... Nope.
