Mapshare - roundabouts added?

[LB-Greg]

There are lots of reports of street names and blocked / unblocked roads being updated by Mapshare; but is anyone aware of new roundabouts making into an update?

Are there any locations to check?

Roundabouts are a reportable issue, not a user-correctable one.

ONLY the 5 items on the first page of the Map Corrections menu have an instant effect (or will be downloaded to others via Mapshare).

All other options are just reported to TomTom like in the old days (as it implies by the icon), so once YOU have done the work to notify them, THEY will then charge you for the new map that uses them. Clever eh?

So basically, all that you can alter on your map and share with others at the moment are:
1. Direction of traffic flow (that covers both the "Block/Unblock" AND the "Reverse direction" options)
2. Rename a street
3. Add/Move/Delete a POI.

But it's early days I guess...

Thanks Tim / Andy

So we are sold out of date maps then have to pay again to make them upto date! You could argue that all maps are just a snapshot at a point intime; but some errors on maps have been there for years.

Can you image the "let's get our customers to update the map and then charge them to use them" meeting at Tom Tom. Genius idea.

It should be first to submit an error get a lifetime subscription to Mapshare - seems fair to me!

look at this sorry tale about new roundabouts and new roads.... (start at the bottom and work upwards)
