TomTom Map Share

TomTom Map Share

TM

 is a free service that lets you make updates to your 

map and if you want to, share those updates with other members of the 

TomTom Map Share community.

If you find a street that has recently been blocked to traffic but was open 

before, you can use Map Share to update your map and then share the update 

with other Map Share members.

You can use Map Share to send and receive map updates during the first year 

after the map’s release date. This means that one year after the release date, 

you will no longer be able to send or receive map updates for that version of 

the map - You will still be able to make updates to your own map for use on 

your own device.

When you join the TomTom Map Share community you can keep your maps 

up-to-date with the latest updates made by other Map Share community 

members.

You choose the type of updates you want and each time you connect your 

TomTom to TomTom HOME, the map is automatically updated.

To join the Map Share community, do the following:
1. Tap Map corrections in the Main Menu.

: If you cannot see the Map corrections button in the Main Menu, tap Show 

ALL menu options in the Preferences menu.

2. Tap Download corrections made by others.
3. Tap Join.

When you connect your TomTom to computer, TomTom HOME automatically 

downloads any available map updates and sends any changes you have 

made, to the Map Share community.

There are two types of map update:
• Updates that are immediately shown on the map. These include, changing 

the traffic flow of a street, blocking or renaming a street and adding or 

editing POIs.

This type of change is immediately shown on your own map. You can hide 

these updates at any time in the Map Share preferences menu.
