About MyDrive

MyDrive is a web-based tool that helps you manage the contents and services of your TomTom GO

navigation device. For example, you can use MyDrive to get map updates, software updates or

manage your MyTomTom account.

You log in to MyDrive on the TomTom website. It is a good idea to frequently connect your

navigation device to MyDrive to ensure you always have the latest updates.

Tip: We recommend using a broadband internet connection whenever you connect your

navigation device to MyDrive.

About MyDrive Connect

In order to use MyDrive, you need to install MyDrive Connect on your computer.

MyDrive Connect is an application that allows your navigation device to communicate with the

MyDrive website. MyDrive Connect needs to be running all the time that your device is connected to

your computer.

MyTomTom account

To download content and to use TomTom services, you need a MyTomTom account.

You can create an account using your computer in one of the following ways:

 By selecting the Create account button at tomtom.com.

 By selecting the green MyTomTom button at tomtom.com.

 By going to tomtom.com/getstarted.

Alternatively you can create an account on your navigation device by selecting Traffic & Speed

Cameras or Traffic & Danger Zones for the first time in the main menu of your navigation device.

To use this method, your device needs to be always connected or connected using your phone.

Important: Take care when choosing a country during account creation. The correct country is

needed if you make a purchase from the TomTom shop and it cannot be changed after the account

has been created.

Note: If you have more than one TomTom navigation device in use, you need a separate account

for each device.
