    Offline line maps are maps that are on your phone........

    If one wants all to work on a GPS app you need to have a data connection.

    But here is the problem when it comes to TomTom GPS apps.

    Some users want Android Auto

    Some users want it to work on Head units

    With TomTom have a very larger pallet of products they can not please everyone.

    The have stand alone units, 3 GPS app, and factory installed GPS in car radios from some car companies.
    They are not like Sygic who only has GPS apps.

    Garmin has tried a couple of times with GPS app and has failed.

    They too have stand alone units and GPS in car radios from some car companies.

    This all comes down to marketing and profit line.
    What will make money and what will not.

    It has been over 6 months since TomTom started beta testing Android Auto on one product.
    I do not seeing dropping SmartDeviceLink on TomTom NDS they have invested to much time in it.
    Then will they really go with Go TomTom with AA???? (For now it works with Apple CarPlay)


    You can please some of the people some of the time but never all of the people all the time........
