Try TomTom GPS Navigation U.S.A. App Reviews

30 add

A wonderful app, everyone should give it a try

A great app which gives you the opportunity to try it first with 30 days of traffic. The app is very stable, with great graphics in iOS 7.X. If youre a business man or business woman the ability to avoid traffic jams is a real money saver.

Do not waste your money!

It kept telling me poor gps signal.

Frustrated

I purchased the trial app for .99. Worked great then I purchased the full app from within the app. The voice guidance does not work most of the time. I am sad I wasted money on this worthless app. I want my money back.

Great Idea

This is something Ive been looking for ! You can pick winding roads ! Perfect for a motorcycle. The voice guidance has never worked :-( I hope they can fix this someday

GPS would not work.

Tried every thing, but all I would get is "Poor GPS" When I loaded other map programs, GPS worked just fine.

Poor gps reception

The app simply does not work. Do not waste your money and time.

Beware! Misleading!

This app is fine for trying out "TomTom USA". Do NOT pay the $24.99 within the "Try TomTom GPS Navigation USA" as an in-app purchase to continue using. Instead buy "TomTom USA" for $24.99 from the App Store. The version of "Try TomTom GPS Navigation USA" lags behind the version of "TomTom USA".

Fantastic!

Great app, strongly recommended!

Dont waste your money.....

This App is just a 30 day trial version. Tomtom is just trying to get your foot in the door to buy the full version of 28 something dollars. So the Google maps app and Apple maps app do the same for free. This is just a desperate way of Tom-tom trying to recoup the money they lose on G in the GPS market.

Poor implementation for iPad

To me if a simple app like this one if is not intuitive/clean enough for you to get the hang of it and like it in the first ten mins of use then is not worth buying( 99c. To try ? I feel I got ripped off) My first complaint is that one has to accesses the menu for something as simple as scrolling on the map instead of just swipe your finger across it like most map apps out there,second, why give so much screen space to a permanent volume button? ....and the buttons on top?..dont waste your time on this one.Id give no stars if I could.

Leads Me Astray

I thought this was a great way to save on data usage when Im traveling. Well, it saves my data (somewhat), but its not my favorite GPS. Most importantly, it has been rather wrong on how to get to specific addresses. I was looking for the Old Navy in Grand Junction, CO, and it was wrong by about a mile, despite my entering the correct address. Google maps got me un-lost. Thats a problem, and it almost completely defeats the purpose. Im also disappointed that there is no way to search for a point of interest near your current route. My really old Garmin nuvi GPS unit would locate, say, a Wendys near your programmed path, and you could add that to the route without canceling the overall plan. Not so with this one. It only searches for the points of interest nearest you without regard to whether you are actually headed that direction (vs it being behind you) and cancels your previous route, should you choose to make that detour. My final complaint is that the maps just arent very pretty to look at. It could be so much nicer. All in all, its a disappointment, and Im regretting having purchased the one-year subscription.

Traffic Stopped working

I puchased the In-App TomTom Navigation and 12 Months TomTom Traffic July 2014 and everthing worked great until a couple of weeks ago. Now TomTom no longer sells 12 month traffic and even though I have 2 months left my traffic no longer works. I also use to be able to use different devices (but not at the same time) and now the account and purchases wont transfer between devices. If I wanted Turn by Turn without traffic I could have used Google or Apple maps FREE!

Needs rewritten to work better

The navigation guidance for Tomtom is very good (amongst the best) but the UI and the map manipulation is horrible. Moving the map or zooming in and out is very problematic. The screen goes blank and flashes and even then may not carry out the function properly and you lose where you were on the map. If this app was redone so the map scrolled and zoomed well, and the UI was streamlined, this would be a great app, if not the best. As is, it just isnt good enough compared to the others.

New update

The new update did nothing to the UI. I cant understand why TomTom does not update the UI. The traffic is excellent and so is the navigation. But please update the UI.

Audio Fail

I tried the app on my iPhone 6 Plus using bluetooth audio. While listening to music, the Tom Tom voice is WAY too LOUD which makes this app useless.

Worst app ever!!!

Its a waste of time and money! I installed it two weeks ago and wont work,it keeps on saying "poor signal" every where I go.

Good GPS option

The user interface on this app is excellent. It has better features than Google or Apple maps. There are several kinks that can get frustrating, but this is still my go to gps for delivery service in a major metropolitan area. I do wish they would put a compass somewhere on the screen so when you start navigation from a stand still you know which direction it wants you to go. Also, it does not tell you which side of the road your destination is. It will just say "destination ahead" with a finish line flag. The kinks can be discouraging, though. It tends to direct you to the nearest point on the map rather than the address listed. If the building your navigating to is far back on a property, it may take you to the next road over if its physically closer than than the address. Another kink that leaves me puzzled: In the middle of navigation, without warning or explanation, the app menu will pop up, leaving the navigation screen. I havent been able to figure when or why it does this, but if youre approaching an unknown turn and you look up and navigation is gone, it can be very inconvenient and sometimes unsafe.

Truck driver

This app is crazy good! Way better than any free app including Google Maps. Traffic is extremely accurate even in way out rural Pa. Most negative reviews appear to be user error.

Not spoken streets nor exits name.

The user interface is great, but app still half baked. The exit animation not combined with map real view and doesnt show/ not pronounce exit full name or number. Just tells you to be on left/ right. Not helpful for navigation in unknown area.

Spoken street directions have disappeared!

Refund or fix
