Sounds 

and 

voices

Your TomTom Via uses sound for the following:
• Driving directions and other route instructions
• Traffic information
• Warnings that you set
• Hands-free phone calls

There are two types of voice available for your Via:
• Computer voices

Computer voices are generated by your Via. They provide route instructions and read 

aloud city and street names, traffic and weather reports, user messages and tutorials.

• Human  voices

These are recorded by an actor and only provide route instructions.

Your TomTom Via uses text-to-speech technology and computer voices to read the street 

names on your map as it guides you on your route.

The computer voice analyses the whole phrase or sentence before speaking, to ensure 

that the sentence sounds as close as possible to natural speech.

Computer voices can recognise and pronounce foreign towns and street names. For 

example, the English computer voice can read and pronounce French street names.

: 

If you require a computer voice and your language is unavailable, then you need to install 

and use the English language computer voice. For more information on computer voices, 

go to tomtom.com/services.

To select a different voice on your TomTom Via, tap Voices in the settings menu. Then tap 

Change voice and select the required voice.

You can change the volume on your TomTom Via in several ways.
