There are two types of voice available for your TomTom Connect:
Computer voices
Computer voices are generated by your TomTom Connect. They provide route instructions and
read aloud city and street names, traffic and other useful information.
Human voices
These are recorded by an actor and only provide route instructions.
About computer voices
Your TomTom Connect 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.
