Note: If you search using a ZIP code you will not get a specific address in your results. You do not have to use the state or province postal abbreviation or first change the state or province because this is included in the ZIP code. For example, a search for York in the whole map returns a long list of possible results. Adding a space followed by the ZIP code narrows the results down to the York that you are looking for.  About mapcodes In countries where roads and houses have no names or addresses, you can use a mapcode instead. A mapcode represents a location.  Every location on Earth, including those in the sea, like islands and oil rigs, can be represented by a mapcode. Mapcodes are short, and easy to recognize, remember and communicate. They are precise to a few meters, which is good enough for every-day use.  Go to mapcode.com for instructions on how to find the mapcode for a location. Mapcodes are more precise and more flexible than the address on a business card. You can choose a location that you want to associate with your address, for example, the main entrance or the entrance to a parking lot.

About routes and tracks The term "route" includes two types of route from one place to another:  Routes have a starting point and a destination, and perhaps some stops. Your device calculates your preferred type of route between all these points, for example, the fastest or most eco-nomical. You can edit a route by, for example, adding stops or moving the starting point. Routes can be imported but cannot be exported from your device.   Tracks also have a starting point and a destination, but have no stops. Your route follows the track as closely as possible, ignoring your preferred type of route and traffic conditions. You can only edit tracks using tools such as Tyre Pro.

 92  Recording and sharing routes About GPX and ITN files GPX files (GPS exchange format) GPX files contain a very detailed recording of where you have been on your track, including any off-road locations. GPX files become tracks after import. Using GPX files   There are several things you can do with your GPX file:   Use a tool such as Tyre Pro to view your track file.   Export to a memory card or directly to your computer, then use your computer to view the file using software such as Google Earth.  Note: While viewing your recording, you may notice that the recorded GPS locations do not always correspond with the roads. This can happen for several reasons. Firstly, your device tries to keep the files small and this can cause a slight loss of data precision. Secondly, your device records the actual data from the GPS chip for an accurate representation of where you’ve been, rather than what you see on your screen. Thirdly, the software with which you view the recording may have the maps misaligned.   Share the file with friends by exporting it.  Note: Tracks can be imported and exported.  ITN files (TomTom's own Itinerary file format) An ITN file contains less detail than a GPX file. An ITN file can contain a maximum of 255 locations which is enough to recreate a route accurately. ITN files become routes after import. Using ITN files There are several things you can do with your ITN file:   You can import an ITN file onto your TomTom BRIDGE so you can travel that same route again and get navigation instructions.   Use tools such as Tyre Pro to view your route.  Note: Routes can be imported but cannot exported.  Importing routes and tracks Important: You can only transfer route and track files if a file explorer app is installed on your TomTom BRIDGE. You can import the following file types:  GPX files - these become tracks after import.  ITN files - these become routes after import. Tip: ITN files are TomTom itinerary files. You can find GPX and ITN files on the internet then transfer these files to My Places by transferring the files to your device. To import a route or track, do the following: 1. Using a file explorer app, select the file you want to import.
 93  2. Use the file explorer app's send or share function to select the TomTom Navigation app. 3. The TomTom Navigation app imports the route or track.  4. When the route or track is successfully imported, select OK. You can find your route or track in My Routes.  Recording a track You can record a track while you drive, with or without a route planned. After recording, you can then export your track so that you can share it with others or view it using tools such as Tyre Pro. To record a track, do the following: 1. In the Main Menu, select Start Recording. A red dot appears in the lower right-hand corner of the screen and initially flashes three times to show that you are now recording. The dot remains on the screen until you stop recording. 2. To stop recording, select Stop Recording in the Main Menu. 3. Enter a name for your track, or you can leave it at the suggested date/time combination. 4. Select Add or Finished, depending on the device you are using. 5. Your track is saved in My Routes. Note: You can export tracks as GPX files and save them on a memory card for sharing with others.  Exporting tracks from the TomTom Navigation app You can export tracks as GPX files and save them on the TomTom navigation app. Using a file explorer app or your computer, you can then share the files with others. Important: Not every TomTom BRIDGE has a file explorer app. Note: Currently, you can export only tracks from your TomTom navigation app. To export one or more tracks, do the following: 1. In the Main Menu, select My Routes. 2. Select Share Tracks. Tip: Alternatively, when in map view, select a track and select Share Track from the pop-up menu. 3. Select one or more tracks from your list for export. Tip: To select or deselect all tracks for export, select the pop-up menu button. 4. Select Share.

You can find the track files in the TomTom navigation app internal storage in the Routes folder. Tip: You can share the track files using Bluetooth, a computer, or a memory card.
 94  About voice control Note: Voice control is only available when your TomTom BRIDGE is in the dock, the dock has power, and the microphone is connected. Instead of selecting items on the screen to control your TomTom BRIDGE, you can use your voice to control your TomTom navigation app. You can use voice control to control many of the navigation features on your TomTom navigation app, or to change settings. For example, you can change the screen to day colors, avoid a blocked road or decrease the volume just by using your voice. Voice control is active in the map view, the guidance view, and the voice control screen. Important: Voice control requires a voice that speaks street names. When there is no voice that speaks street names installed and selected on your TomTom BRIDGE, this feature is not available. To select a voice that reads street names out loud, select Voices in the Settings menu, then select Choose a voice and select a Computer voice that reads street names out loud.  Starting voice control In map view or guidance view, say the wake-up phrase to start voice control. The default wake-up phrase is "Hello TomTom," but you can make your own wake-up phrase.

The microphone symbol shows you when you can speak:   This symbol shows you that voice control is ready to listen. Speak when you hear the beep.   This symbol shows you that voice control is busy. 4. The microphone monitor. While you are speaking the microphone monitor shows how well voice control can hear your voice:  A light blue bar means voice control can hear your voice.  A red bar means your voice is too loud for voice control to recognize individual words.
 96   A dark blue bar means your voice is too quiet for voice control to recognize individual words.  Some tips for using voice control You can help your TomTom navigation app understand what you are saying by following these tips:  Mount your TomTom navigation app about an arm's length in front of you, away from speakers or air vents.  Reduce background noise such as voices or the radio. If there is excessive road noise, you may need to speak in the direction of the microphone.  Speak fluently and naturally as though speaking to a friend.  When saying an address, try not to pause between parts of the address or add extra words.  Say "number one" or "number two" and not "one " or "two" when selecting an item from a list such as a house number.  Try not to correct mistakes, for example "Number four, oh I mean number five." Important: Voice control on your TomTom navigation app is specifically for native speakers of the selected language who have a neutral accent. If you have a strong local or foreign accent, voice control may not understand everything that you say.  What you can use voice control for To view the complete list of available commands, select Help in the Main Menu, then Voice control and then Which commands can I say?. When voice control is on, you can also say "All commands" to view the list of available commands.
