> Try reading post 4 from "lampard"......

Thank you. But before posting the question I did a search for a bunch of key words including subscription, fee, maps and others, but found nothing. Had I found the post you referenced I would not have posted my question.

> Plus you can always send an email to TomTom asking about this info.

I did that as well before posting my question. When I did not get a response (and I still have not) I posted assuming that if I could not find any corresponding post and if TomTom would not respond to my question, then the only choice I had was to ask on this forum.

> I think this should answer your question that you could not find......... at Apple Store

It did answer my question, and I am grateful for the information. However I do not know why you are suggesting I was asking the Apple Store. This is the TomTom iOS forum so it seems to me to be the appropriate place for questions about TomTom on the iOS platform, and that is the iPhone and iPad. Perhaps I am reading more into these posts than was intended (and if I am I apologize) but some seem almost hostile and I don't know why. Where else should I ask questions about the TomTom iPhone app other than the TomTom iOS forum?
