TomTom has a massive business in dedicated GPS navigation hardware, and it could be expected that it would bring this to bear on its iPhone application. Unfortunately, even with a major set of improvements in its 1.2 release, the product doesn’t stand out of the pack.
I have Navigon, Sygic, G-map and TomTom. TomTom is by far the worst. No spoken street names, no graphical notice as you approach turns, no graphics on highway exits, worst of all - - poor GPS reception! There is nothing to recommend about this app.
WARNING BEFORE PURCHASE: TomTom and 3rd party dock connectors/cradle
BEWARE:This could be a great app, except it will not work with your 3rd party car mount/docks at this point. I have been having issues finding a strong GPS signal while docked in my Belkin TuneBase FM (Mobile Navigator works just fine with the same dock, as does the native "Maps" app. TomTom works just fine outside of the dock...Upon some internet reading and then confirmation from a TomTom customer service representative, I have found that TomTom has written code to disable the native GPS in the iPhone when docked - it assumes that the user is docking in THEIR dock which sports and far superior GPS receiver, and a such disables the iPhone's.The representative did ensure me that TomTom was working on a resolution for this fault, although a second call did to another rep didn't have the same optimism. if I had known this, I would not have purchased it.My recommendation is to wait to purchase this app. If you have a 3rd party dock that you plan to use it will NOT work right now - you might as well save your $99.00, because holding an iPhone in your hand while you drive is not an efficient method of navigation.I develop for the iPhone and I know that this would have to be intentionally written into the code to force the iPhone to turn off one of its API's when its docked. That said it should be a quick fix as they could just comment out this block of code, until they can write a more suitable solution, like an action sheet that asks which GPS to use....Keep an eye out for an update soon because the software is worth it, assuming, they don't force us to purchase their dock!D
