Just found the cause of the problem. I didn't notice, but for some reason the device had changed my home location to somewhere in Scotland - so the route planned was from Scotland to elsewhere! |

It is designed & intended to be used with the car charger plugged in.
If that is the case, why does it have options to plan a walking or cycling route? I certainly bought my TomTom with the ex ... |

I get arrows like that on large roundabouts where there are a number of possible lanes that could be used when negotiating the roundabout, I think its part of the lane guidance features. |

I find the option to be reminded when going over speed limit to be a very important safety feature, as a gentle reminder when driving too fast. To me its more important even than the ability to have ... |

Does anyone know why the America / Canada map version number I installed through LMG on Monday is different to the one for UK / Western Europe (see my signature)? Ie 2019 instead of 2003?

From some of the replies above, it seems to be that TomTom are under the illusion that part of the problem is that these devices are now being asked to do more than their processing power allows, henc ... |

Bit of a long shot this.
There is a setting to automatically switch off when external power is disconnected at least on Go x20 models. If the One v2 has this, then you could possibly use Splash ... |
