Getting started

Map updates
When you start TomTom App and a map update is available you are asked if you want to down-
load the new map.
Tap Download to download the map.
Important: A map is a large file that can take a long time to download. To prevent high data
charges we advise you to download a map using a WiFi connection.

lease when it is available.
Tap Ask me later to be informed about the current map update when you next start TomTom

GPS reception
When you first start TomTom App, it may need a few minutes to find your GPS position and show
your current location on the map. Make sure you have GPS activated on your device.
To make sure you have good GPS reception, you should use your device outdoors. Large objects
such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with reception.
Important: TomTom App cannot give you route instructions until it has GPS reception.
If your device has no GPS reception, TomTom App uses positioning information from WiFi net-
works or mobile phone towers. This information is used for route planning and to determine your
approximate location.
