The release of map applications is in full swing in Android Auto: after the landing of the AmiGo version, it is now TomTom Go Navigation, the complete mobile application, which new compatibility with vehicle operating system. It is available in version 3.1.0 of the aforementioned application.
Being an operating system for vehicles, it was strange that only two apps could be used with the car, Waze and Google Maps; oddly enough, both from the company that develops Android Auto. This “monopoly” was broken last March with the release of Sygic Navigation; application followed by TomTom AmiGo. Many missed support for the company’s most comprehensive mobile software, TomTom Go Navigation. You no longer have to wait.

Having skills in the area of GPS navigation applications is of vital importance in Android Auto because, being a system that powers moving vehicles, having enough options improves driving safety, comfort and, not inconsiderably, also speeds up movement.
Talking about GPS navigators with point-to-point voice guidance involves mentioning TomTom. The brand that popularized these devices, and which suffered the most from the smartphone boom, has succeeded in adapting its software offering added value to free applications like Google Maps: no advertising (under subscription), more personalization, full download of regions and countries to browse offline And now all the information on the car console is also added.
There aren’t any over-the-top changes with the 3.1.0 update: you won’t see any settings in the mobile app or even an option to turn Android Auto on or off. Just connect your mobile to the car as usual (either with cable or via Android Auto wireless) and You will see that on the vehicle screen you will finally have access to TomTom Go Navigation.
The car interface maintains the appearance of mobile: the screen looks clean, with overlapping points of interest and clear guidance instructions. TomTom Go navigation in Android Auto makes it easy to navigate while driving while minimizing distractions. We found it very well suited to the system.
