Have you blurred number-plates in the video? If so, worth mentioning because otherwise it seems to show very few of them when you'd expect it. Nice kit though. |

a new bypass from M6 J34 to Morecambe online the day it opened. Still waiting for TomTom to add it, despite me submitting details of the new road months ago.
You will be very pleased to see it in t ... |

The new app seems to have been improved since the first release, but the biggest issue from my point of view is simple usability when in the car. The touch targets are stupidly small, or you have to s ... |

I have a 740 Live sitting on charge but unused - waiting to sum up the courage to put it on ebay. Have desk dock, car mount, and other bits, no box. Happy to listen to sensible offers if anyone wants ... |

I note that the latest iOS apps say that 12 month subscriptions are not available because they can't do them any more. Anyone know details on this? Seems odd that they can't do it given it is their da ... |

My 740 PND is awaiting me doing something about selling it. The iPhone app works just fine.
The key question that I will ask, but I'm sure is already pondered on PocketGPSWorld, is what will happen ... |

Part of the issue here is the use that someone is allowed to use traffic data for. I think Google used TomTom data for a while, but were not licensed to use it for re-routing (have to pay more). They ... |

On the third party power adapter, it may just be that it needs more than the old USB adapters give out. I was using my iPhone as satnav with a little adapter, but when I changed to the 6+ I found it w ... |

As an iPhone user, I switched to the TomTom app on the phone. Same traffic, but better signal and cheaper to buy. The 740 would keep losing data, particularly on busy days, and was therefore not worth ... |

I bought an E-Prance dashcam, with GPS module. It works, but when I review the video, the trace is all in the North Sea, and not in the UK where it should be. I've just tried the options in the DataKa ... |

One thing not yet mentioned is Live Traffic, which TomTom is still the best at. Others have the data but don't yet use it for diverting you away (licence costs, I think). |
