TomTom Android - When did the price increase?

I just worked up the courage to go and buy TomTom Android and found they now want £40.99 for the UK version. I only wanted it for occasional use when I am without my XL-1. Never mind I have CoPilot and if I check the route it's not too bad. On the bright side I have saved £30.

Just as well you waited before not buying it because you've now saved £40.99 Laughing

The application date changed to Feb 5 on Google Play. That is likely when the introductory discount expired and prices increased to their current levels.

Accept your point to some extent,but bearing in mind most sales volumes happen in first months of release, so the install figures must be disapointing for TT in view that most people consider it the premier product.
Totally agree with your points on tomtom both are killers for me.

And disappointed for us to, if the volumes are this low, and TomTom give up on the app, cannot see me going to CoPilot or Sygic (both of which I also own) as like you say, their routing isn't up to much and their interface just not car friendly

Lets hope users see sense

Sygic is free to try, with an in-app purchase to unlock the trial expiration.

The Sygic count reflects all those who tried it for free but didn't bother to purchase. Tomtom's number only reflects actual buyers.

(In addition to Sygic being available for years, vs Tomtom's availability for only months.)

A couple of posts from the TomTom Forum which may be of interest:

Some good news.

I have spoken with the Mobile developers and they have confirmed that the "Direction Up 2D View" will be available in the next update of the app.

Thursday 14.02.2013

Unfortunately I don't have an ETA for the next release but i expect that it will be over 4 weeks away.

TT UK&ROI and Western EU currently showing to be back at £24.99 & £29.99 respectively on Google Play.

With most other Android apps, you can install on other devices with the same Google login. Is this the case with TT? I was thinking of purchasing now ready for my new phone when it becomes available.

As far as I can work out - yes! I have it on both My Samsung phone AND my Nexus tablet from the one Google account. When I went to download it onto the second unit, it said "Already purchased" or words to that effect and continued to install it.
