    @Mauritsz,

    Testing TomTom NDS app for some time now and yet to have any problems with it.

    I have driven in Holland many many times and it has always taken me to the correct location.
    Never had it take me down a one way street in the wrong direction.

    Have even tested it against a Garmin Drive Smart 61 to compare and they both took me the same way.

    Had both running at the same time. (wife was watching both of them while I drive)

    Have also done this test with Sygic vs TomTom NDS and they pretty much do the same roads.

    As from Gas station Icons I never look at the GPS for that.

    Very easy to see a Gas station looking out the windscreen as you drive.

    Plus there are plenty of signs on the High Way telling me where the next Gas Station is.

    I keep my eyes on the road and not on the smartphone GPS app.

    You can here the voice instruction as to where to exit or change roads.

    new

    I'm still wondering why the multicolored gasstations dissapeared, nobody has an answer. OK so be it.

    Another bad change in NDS maps, NO time delay in minutes in a traffic jam like the old cards have... see the 2 pictures beneath....
    I hope TT will change this.

    I stated my point of bad behaviour of NDS in one way streets, I was there at the very moment went it went wrong. Other nav systems works good, I know.

    So I hope Tomtom leave there NDS crap to the eastern hemispere in the Google Play store and let us Eurpeans with the old style TT Go maps. Never change a winning horse!

    I tried spoiler but it's not very intuive to put screenshots to the discussion. Don't like it. Can I write this to the owner or director of this website? Others fora has a max. of 5 pictures in one message. It has the same bitsize if you hide or not in the message.

    Have a nice day at latest hours of 2019 and up to 2020!

    @asprin624
    I can only second what you have write into your lastest post here.
    I have also compare with Garmin, and my old TomTom Go 630, and TomTom NDS leads me on the same route.
    So I am well pleased with this apk.
    But I've also said before, that TomTom NDS will be the future.
    But most people said that TomTom Go, remains as it was.
    So welcome to the future with NDS cards.
    And thanks "asprin624
    Great new year to all

    @Mauritsz,


    Spoiler: I see gas stations with no problems at all.

    I do not know what your problems are with gas station icons are.


    Spoiler: As for traffic delay info I see that too.
    MOWtz3N


    All you have to do is tap on the traffic and get the info you need.

    That way the screen is not filled up with all that info.


    I quote you:

    "I stated my point of bad behaviour of NDS in one way streets, I was there at the very moment went it went wrong. Other nav systems works good, I know."


    Your telling us that you want back to this same area with different GPS apps to check if there is a mistake or not????

    You must have a lot of time on your hands to check out this one one-way road for a mistake.........................

    What about the rest of the city or any other place you drive???

    All OK there?????


    Or is this just one tiny problem you have found.

    Then report it to TomTom in their forum if it is really a mistake.

    You can check their MyDrive website to see.

    Maybe I can't write so I try it for the last time

    I don't have a problem

    My NDS has NO colored gasstations and brand logo

    My NDS has gasstations has ONLY blue/white standard icons

    I'm only interested of other people has the same fault or I am the only one?

    I'm told before that I had that multi colored icons but after a update it went to blue/white

    2.

    NDS One way streets faulty location. It's a fact for me. Goople Maps rescued me. NDS was wrong.

    For the record, this my last statement about these issues. I make myself clear.

    @asprin264 I think Mauritsz used another nav app at the time and that app got him out of the center.

    I know Groningen very well. Its city center is like a maze and to make things more complicated they've introduced a circulation plan in the '70's to make it even more difficult. To add to the confusion, there are like countless and continious road works. Small ones, not mentioned in any nav app.

    If @mauritsz could clarify what street(s) he had the problem, it would maybe ring a bell with me.

    That all being said and assuming the problem is with TomTom; I'm very happy with the app

    @charlesrond,

    From Android 7 and greater the folders are hidden.

    You would have to root your phone to see any folders for TomTom NDS

    Plus they will not show.

    You can pick them in Search, Myplaces:

    But only one and drive to it.

    The same is from the New TomTomGO

    @charlesrond,

    The problem is that TomTom does not support this and you are out in the cold to get it to work.

    Not much you can do about it.
