TomTom GO Navigation 4+

I use this great navigator all over USA, Europe and even Russia. Works great everywhere except Boston MA. Boston has many very complex intersections and road configurations. I think other cities must have also but Boston is the most complex I have ever driven. My 26 year old daughter who lives in Boston finds it as difficult as I do. This results in missed turns or making the wrong choice in a multiple choice situation. The cause is two fold. First there are many - very many - intersections on the map that are just not laid out the way shown. Not totally wrong but enough so that it is confusing to choose the correct road. There are three places that are completely wrong and in two of them the wrong choice will send you miles and miles away until I can correct. Second flaw is that in these situations the graphic route lines are too wide to really define the correct choice precisely. I give this app a five because it is light years better than anything except Google Maps which my daughter now uses. But Google does not have the superb route side bar and other important features. You can download the latest maps internationally. I know. Trust this app. Just wish they had more attention to difficult nav situations in dense urban areas with the profile of Boston. Which is unique in difficulty on my experience.

Hello there, Sorry to hear that - We need some additional information (exact location) to investigate it further. Please help us reporting it here https://www.tomtom.com/mapshare/tools/new/mapshare/.  Thanks'

Like most everyone out there I’ve used all other major driving apps, this one is the best hands down, from audible alerts to lack of distractions….I’ve never been a fan of hitting buttons to alert or where every Dunkin’ donut is in my area, just need directions and TomTom does it well!!! Only have two complaints…. Please give the street maps a little more contrast, I like to be able to see how many streets I need to pass before I make a turn, probably just a personal habit but when I’m sitting at a light on a different route I don’t want to be looking at street names, a quick glance at the map could give you a quick ballpark idea of how many blocks before one needs to turn. The only other issue is exit names when driving on a highway, other apps do a much better job of matching what the exit names as displayed on the road signs, this makes it easier to know you’re taking the correct one. TomTom is more generic and doesn’t quite match so if I was driving on a new road I would probably use a different app because don’t want to get rear ended trying to second guess if I’m taking the correct exit.

Hello there, We appreciate your 5-star rating and feedback - We will certainly work on the improvements and we wish you a safe time on the road.
Thank you for bringing it to our notice.
Happy Motoring!🚗 ^Rahyl

i’ve tried almost all map apps, from apple to google, and some that most have never heard of, and Tomtom is the only one that has an efficient mapping system ALONG WITH (and this is important for me) an audible warning of speed and red light cameras. Almost everyone offers speed camera alerts VISUALLY on the map but I find it EXTREMELY handy that tomtom is the only one that actually offers audible alerts so that I can be prepared for one way before I recognize I’m coming up on it on my own. If my next turn isn’t for 3 miles I’m not checking my carplay every 200 feet for visual alerts... i’m cruising for about a mile and a half before i look down again, so if a camera happens to pop up on the map that i’m unaware of, I get 3 pings in my stereo and a voice alerting me of said camera... THE BEST CAMERA SYSTEM OUT THERE RIGHT NOW.. the app itself has its kinks every now and then as I’ve seen with them all but overall a true 5/5 try not to change much in terms of functionality and I’ll be subscribing when my free trial is up.

Hi there, thank you for your amazing review, it has made our day. Our devlopers consistently work on users' feedback to make the app more user friendly as musch as possible, thanks. ^Jasbir N.
