Apple's CarPlay technology was introduced in 2014. Today, we can count on the fingers of one hand the manufacturers that have not yet adopted this technology in their vehicles, like Android Auto. With each new version of iOS, Apple offers more freedom to developers and currently the number of compatible applications is quite large.
As for the navigation systems, not only do we have both Apple Maps and Google Maps available, but we also have other options like the one offered by TomTom, a company that became popular a decade ago for its GPS devices for the vehicle. In order not to get lost among the different options available on the market, they have just revamped their navigation app.
The update TomTom for iPhone has received allows us to previously download the maps to the device that we are going to use to not depend on mobile data when we make long trips.
But TomTom is not just a map application, since it also offers us different services associated with driving such as live information on the state of the traffic through TomTom Traffic and a service that helps the driver to respect the speed limits on the roads that circulate through TomTom Speed Cameras.
TomTom Go Navigation, is available for download completely free of charge in the App Store and requires a subscription to be able to use the functionalities that it offers us. If we have a vehicle with CarPlay or a device compatible with this technology, we can make the most of it thanks to this new map download function.
Below I detail the prices of the different subscriptions that TomTom Go makes available to us:
- 1 month - 1,99 euros
- 3 months - 4,99 euros
- 6 months - 8,99 euros
If you plan to go on a trip this summer with the car, for only 1,99 euros, you can enjoy one of the best map services currently available on the market. Once you try it, you will see how it has nothing to do with the services that both Apple and Google offer us.
Renew or die, Tomtom is seeing that apple maps is rising in level by leaps and bounds and between waze and google maps, he does not eat a colin with the subscription theme, so they try to innovate, but who wants to pay for maps when others that are the same of good they are free.
