Using TomTom GO
Using TomTom GO
Note
: Your TomTom GO does not transmit your location, so others cannot use it to track you while
driving.
TomTom GO starts by displaying the navigation view. The screen will appear in black and white until
your TomTom GO locates your current position. Once this is done, the navigation view is shown in
full color. In future, your position will be found much faster, normally within a few seconds.
Everything on TomTom GO can be accomplished easily using just your finger on the touchscreen.
Note: you can bring up the main options menu by tapping your finger somewhere in the middle of
the screen.
As with many of the menus in TomTom GO, there are more options than can be shown on
one screen. Try tapping on
a few times, to cycle through all the different things you can
do.

Move outside, if you haven't already done so, so that the GPS hardware can locate your
position. This may take some time, and will happen more quickly if you remain still. The screen
displays your current position on its map, represented in a '3D' navigation view, from a driver's
perspective. When you start moving, the navigation view will match the streets outside as you
would see them through your windshield.
