### 3/5 — Has this product been abandoned

*2026-08-14, version 3.9.18*

My subscription has just been renewed but there has been no updates for 5 months - I wanted to contact support but you cannot get past the support bot on the website. I wanted to understand why I cannot use the feature of avoiding low emissions zones when planning routes that should be available but isn’t. It seems what’s left of TomTom only update their free version to drive sales of the tom gizmo.

### 3/5 — Out of date maps

*2026-08-13, version 3.9.18*

I used to like this app but a year after moving into my new house they still haven’t added my address. Apple, Google, Garmin, the post office, the property appraiser office, etc all added it 10 months ago. What are you waiting for?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-12, version 3.9.18*

I downloaded the North and South UK databases. I was thinking of using this for my motorhome but it either could not find a route or suggested an unsuitable route. For example, Stansted to Canterbury, via Ilford. The M25 and Dartford Crossing was the obvious route. I’ve cancelled after the free trial.

### 1/5 — Maps not updated

*2026-08-08, version 3.9.18*

Recently I’ve written a 3 star review about getting lost in Birmingham around May. I’m changing it to 1 star and I will be cancelling my subscription because I simply lost money. I’ve bought it to mainly get a low bridges filtered out because I’m a van driver doing 50k+ miles a year and the most of time I carry traffic lights on the back and they are quite high so the van is much higher so I need to be careful with low bridges, but I get lost so many times while using TomTom, many roundabouts I go through don’t even exist on them maps and they are there for years because I’ve driven them locations hundreds of times so why can’t you just update the app regularly. Waze hasn’t got that problem the app is free and they’ve got everything updated, they have got much better lane control before massive busy roundabouts that unfortunately isn’t explained as it should be in TomTom. I was really expecting something much better from the paid app. Totally disappointed.

### 1/5 — Not helpful, but made navigation worse.

*2026-08-07, version 3.9.18*

I’m driving from Pacific Northwest to Alaska through Canada (driven this about 12 times over the years) have used a tom tom device years ago before and it worked great, I forgot it this trip and decided to get the app. This did not work, I enter the little information it allows about my vehicle (I have a truck and trailer), it would not even give me route options that I have driven for years and are the best options. Both Apple Maps and Google Maps gave me better and more options for routes. My brother uses Garmin/rv and consistently gets better route planning, that is what I will likely move to also, which is sad because I liked my old Tomtom and thought this would be a updated car play version, it is not.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy it

*2026-08-07, version 3.9.18*

Traffic shows only wrongful timing he found routes on unsuitable for hgvs not for hgvs at all

### 1/5 — Very poor for the money.

*2026-08-02, version 3.9.18*

The maps are unreliable, despite being for a truck, with truck dimensions, it took me to the car ferry port rather than the truck one in the Hoek of Holland. It rarely identifies paddock entrances at circuits and away from Zandvoort gave a ridiculous route, incredibly tight turns. It does this regardless of if it is set to eco, fastest or shortest. For god’ sake, don’t ever use the latter if you are in an HGV. The routing is really poor, Waze and Google maps do a better job. Given this is for trucks it needs an easiest or best route, largest roads. Even with that the routing would need to be better. I really wanted and needed this to work, but I just can’t justify renewing.

### 3/5 — Freezing

*2026-07-31, version 3.9.18*

Not working properly freezing most of the time.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2026-07-24, version 3.9.18*

I’ve been a loyal TomTom GO user for many years, and it’s become my preferred navigation app. The routing is excellent, traffic information is reliable, and the overall experience is polished. However, there are two missing features that prevent me from giving it more than 3 stars. If these were added, this would easily be a 5-star app.

The biggest omission is CarPlay instrument cluster support. On my Audi A5, both Apple Maps and Google Maps display turn-by-turn directions in the Virtual Cockpit as well as on the CarPlay screen. TomTom only displays navigation on the CarPlay display. Apple provides APIs for this (CPTemplateApplicationInstrumentClusterScene, CPNavigationSession, CPManeuver, and related CarPlay navigation APIs), so it would be fantastic to see TomTom implement support for compatible vehicles. Being able to glance at the driver’s display instead of the centre screen is a genuine usability and safety improvement.

Secondly, I’d love to see a persistent “avoid roads” feature. There are roads I never want to use, such as a nearby ford, but the only current workaround is “Avoid part of route”, which is temporary and isn’t available in CarPlay. A simple list of roads that users can permanently avoid during route planning would make the app much more practical for everyday use. Using my phone whilst driving is not feasible, illegal in UK.

TomTom GO already does so many things well, which is why these omissions stand out. I genuinely hope the team considers adding both features, because if they did, this would immediately become a 5-star app.

### 2/5 — Out dated

*2026-07-24, version 3.9.18*

This app has been the same for years, never any updates this could be so much better. Apple Maps are more advanced so don’t waste your money on this app
