 |
|
I know i asked this question many months back!!
Does anyone know if it is possible to allow TOMTOM to Autoroute,
I mean if i put a number of places into the planning, can it auto calculate the best route from a-b.
I am using a demo of co-pilot at the moment which is brilliant.
I deliver packages, you put the address in, and it auto calculates ther best route to deliver them in, then returns me to my depot.
Any help would be great. |

Unfortunately TomTom's can't perform that function.

FWIW, what you are after is known as 'route optimisation' and as far as I know, few consumer solutions offer that.

Yes. Microsoft Autoroute will do what you want on a PC. You can then convert the resulting route into a TomTom Itinerary (.itn) file and upload it to your device. It still doesn't allow auto-optimising on the device, though.

Whenever I went on a European trip, the routes were planned weeks in advance.
