Awesome App
This app has been a god send. I recently went to the UK on holiday and to hire a sat nav unit from the hire car company was going to cost me 70GBP the app then only cost $87 so when i worked out the whole conversion it was cheaper to buy the app, especially as i vist the UK fairly regularly. I used the tom tom every single trip even if i knew where i was going, just in case, and found on a couple of occasions that i was unable to cut across lanes quick enough to make the turn i needed and then essentially became lost. That is where the Tom Tom saved me, within the blink of an eye it had recalculated the route and had me back on track. the improvements id love to see are traffic information so that you can go around any accidents/roadworks etc, and an on foot guidance similar to that of google. i know google uses the internet for its directions and to expect this to be held on your phone is probably out of the question but wishful thinking is allowed right!?
Airplane Mode!
Ok, I may have been a little harsh in my previous review. Turns out waitibg for gps was because I was in airplane mode. Come on tomtom, most people use gps when they travel so their phobe could be in airplane mode. Maybe a warning to check airplane mode if you cant get a fix? Could save you sone frustrated customers. Other than that its been working pretty good. Deducted one star because its crap at recognizing contact addresses and there seems no way to download poi databases (no tesco or sainsburys? Really?).
Excellent!
Worth the money!
Not recommended in Ireland
We bought this app for our 2 week self drive tour of Ireland. It lost gps signal for 2 hours our first day, but Ill give it to them I didnt buy the car kit so I guess thats the chance I took. They warn you that it will drain battery, but it was so bad that I couldnt keep my phone charged even while plugged into the car adapter. None of the preloaded points of interest we used were correct. It took us to the old now closed down Waterford Crystal factory (the new one only allows you to view a showroom). Trying to find the davenport hotel in Dublin it routed us to the opposite side of Merrion square from where the hotel is actually located, forcing us to get directions from reception and sound like idiots in the process. It did not have some of Irelands most famous sights preloaded into it at all (the cliffs of moher, bushmills distillery, the hill of Tara, etc). The only time this app worked really well was on the large national roads and motorways that are easily navigated anyway. I bought this app because we didnt want to rack up data roaming charges, but it was useless without Internet and google to help it along. In my opinion this was a big waste of money. Maybe the UK maps and pois are better.
Doesnt work!
I bought the app, loaded it onto my iPhone 4 by syncing with iTunes on my Mac, ran the app on my phone and…nada! The splash screen that says TomTom simply sits there FOREVER. My flight to London takes off in ten minutes and now it looks like Ill have to buy the Garmin app when I land! First time Ive ever spent more than 99 cents on an app. Probably the last time. And Ill never buy anything from TomTom ever again.
Good app, here are some suggestions for improvement
I like the app overall. Its "good" in every regard - it has few weaknesses, but other apps do particular things better though TomTom the best overall. 3D view: TomTom is good, but Waze is awesome. You can see more of the route in Waze and its panning and zoning is better. Maps: no complaints. Much better than any other satnav app Ive used. Finding destinations: TomTom has too many clicks. My typical usage for me is to find the destination and start driving while the route is being calculated. Unfortunately I then have to click a few more times while Im driving. See Waze for ideas on how this could be better. The Facebook integration is really good. Think about it. I use this app to find places Ive never been before. They are not friends in my address book (I rarely enter addresses). The places I go are basically "places" in facebook. However many times I use the desktop to find a place and then I have to re-find it in TomTom. Hopefully there is an easy way to send a google maps link to TomTom. Finding places is the weakest part of any satnav app including TomTom though TomTom does it as good as anyone today.
