Why do I want to connect a smartphone to my device?

If you don't have an always-connected device, connect your smartphone to your TomTom GO COMFORT to use these features:

• TomTom services

  Receive real-time traffic information, safety camera updates, and TomTom MyDrive using your phone’s data connection. This feature uses approximately 7 MB of data per month.

  Note: Smartphone-connected devices only. Always-connected devices receive services over GPRS.

• Smartphone messages

  SMSes and messages from other messaging apps on your smartphone appear on your TomTom GO COMFORT. Messages can be read aloud so you can keep your eyes on the road ahead.

Connecting your phone with or without the TomTom MyDrive app

You can choose to pair your iOS or Android phone to your device using the TomTom MyDrive app or using only Bluetooth® wireless technology.

If you connect using the TomTom MyDrive app, you can use all the features listed above. If you connect using only Bluetooth, the smartphone messages feature will not be available.
