About backup and restore using Apple iCloud
You can use Apple iCloud to backup your TomTom app settings and data from your iOS device. If you
restore your iOS device, change to a new iOS device, or remove then install the TomTom app, you
can easily restore your settings and data from iCloud so you don't have to manually enter them
again.
Tip: When you install an upgrade to your existing TomTom app you do not have to restore your
settings and data. Your existing settings and data are used in the upgraded app.
Note: To use iCloud your iOS device must have iOS 5 or higher.
Important: You can only restore to an iOS device that has the same name and which is linked to the
same iCloud account. You can only restore to the same registered TomTom app.
Important: If you do a factory reset of your iOS device your iCloud backup will be deleted.
The following settings and data are backed up in iCloud:
 Home location
 Favorites
 Recent destinations
 Voices
 Alerts
 Map settings
 Distance units
 Advanced settings
 Social media settings
 Your TomTom Account email and password.
To back up your settings and data to iCloud you must allow your information to be sent to TomTom.
If you have not agreed to send your information you cannot use the iCloud backup feature.
Note: If you have used other features in the TomTom app, such as TomTom Traffic or Sharing,
you have already agreed to send your information TomTom.
