About Map Share

You can report map changes using Map Share. These map changes are then shared with other TomTom device users when they receive a map update.

There are two ways to report a map change:

• Select a location on the map and create the change report immediately.
• Mark a location and create the change report later.

Your map change reports are automatically sent to TomTom in real time or when you connect your device to MyDrive Connect using a USB connection.

All map changes are verified by TomTom. These verified changes are then available as part of the next map update which you can get when you connect your device to MyDrive Connect using a USB connection.

Tip: If a roadblock is reported using Map Share, the roadblock is verified and immediately shown by TomTom Traffic.

Important: On device models START 42/52, START 40/50/60, and GO 51/61, the screen intentionally dims when you connect your device to your computer.
