Weird subject line eh Smile

Well I went to set my home address in TomTom but it only shows up to number 44 on my street, whereas my house is number 66??? However the house is 10 years old so not really new enough for it not to be included in the maps.

Any idea of a way around this? Or is it just a case of waiting for new maps / updates?

And also, is there a way around searching for a destination and it being a building name? As TomTom only seems to have support for house numbers unless it is in the POI.


Cheers in advance

Use 'Change Home Location' then choose the option 'Point on map' from which you scroll the map and locate your house.

Or in Change Preferences use Change Home Location and on Page 2, GPS Position. To do that you need a GPS lock.
