You have to type in what you are looking for.

Then it will give you a list of those POI's you are looking for wit TomTomGO.

You pick the town or whole map or near me.

Example:
Type Carrefour

It will give you a list of those stores only.

Pick the one you want to go to and your off.

It is very fast and I have never had a problem when I test TomTomGo.

It spells this out in the menu.

No 2 apps do the search the same way or have there menu's setup the same.

So pick the one that best fits your needs and use it.
