Start TomTom Navigation app for iPhone/iPad
TomTom
Tap this button on your iPhone, iPod, iPad or iPad mini to start the
TomTom app.
When the TomTom app supports the same language you selected for your
iOS device, the language used for buttons and menus in the app is the
same as the language on your iOS device. If the TomTom app does not
support the language you selected for your iOS device, then English is used
in the app.
If a route is already planned, the Driving View is shown and navigation
starts immediately. If no route is planned the Main menu is shown.
The TomTom app works in the same way on the iPhone, the iPod touch, the iPad and the iPad mini.
The iPad and the iPad mini have larger screens which means that menus appear over the
Driving
View instead of as full-screen menus.
