Calculate alternative

Tap this button to find an alternative to the current route.

This button is only shown while there is a planned route on your TomTom device.

This is a simple way to search for a different route to your current destination.

Your device calculates a new route from your current location, to reach your destination using completely different roads.

The new route is shown next to the original route so that you can select the route you want to use.

Avoid roadblock

Tap this button while driving on a planned route, to avoid a roadblock or traffic congestion on the road ahead.

Your device will suggest a new route which avoids the roads on your current route for the selected distance.

If the roadblock or traffic congestion suddenly clears, tap Recalculate route to replan your original route.

Important: Be aware that when a new route is calculated, you might immediately be asked to turn off the current road.

Minimise delays

Tap this button to avoid traffic delays on a planned route.

It is not always possible to avoid all traffic delays. Though your device continuously checks for delays on your route, you can tap this button to manually start a check. Your device then calculates the best route to avoid all or most of the delays.

Note: This button is only shown if your device has either a traffic subscription or an RDS-TMC Receiver. Traffic information is not available in all countries or regions. For more information about TomTom traffic information services, go to tomtom.com/services.

Change destination

Tap this button to change the current destination.

When you change the destination, you are shown the same options and asked to enter the new address in the same way as when you plan a new route.

Avoid part of route

Tap this button to avoid part of the current route.

You are shown a list of the street names on your route. When you tap one of the street names, your device calculates a detour to avoid the selected street. The route summary shows both the new route and your original route. Tap the panel on the right to select one of the routes and then tap Done.

If you do not want to use either of the routes shown in the route summary, tap Change route to find another way to change your route.

Travel via...

Tap this button to change your route by selecting a location you want to travel past, maybe so you can meet someone on the way.

When you select a location to travel past, you are shown the same options and asked to enter the new address in the same way as when you plan a new route.

Your device calculates the route to your destination via the selected location.

The selected location is shown on the map using a marker.

You receive a warning when you reach your destination and when you travel past a marked location.
