TomTom has launched a new version (v1.11) of its Navigation app for iPhone and iPad. Users will be able to navigate to addresses found on the Internet, search with foursquare, and get the very latest TomTom maps.
Customers with an older version of the app can download it for free. For new customers, the app can be purchased for US$49.99 at the Apple App Store.
Drivers can now quickly and easily navigate to places they’ve found on websites and other apps by copying an address and pasting it into their TomTom Navigation app.
New car kit
Coinciding with the release of v1.11, TomTom has recently launched a new Hands-Free Car Kit for iPhone.
This car kit has an inbuilt 2-watt speaker for navigational directions and hands-free calls.
A new switch on the latest version of the app for iPhone allows drivers to easily stream their iPhone audio through to their car kit.
There’s no need to type as the app will automatically work out the destination and direct them straight there.
While v1.10 integrated Facebook with the app, v1.11 adds foursquare.
After linking foursquare to the TomTom app, users can search and navigate to their favourite foursquare places, checking in to collect points on arrival.
