Good morning everyone!! Awesome deal!! Similar to this popular deal from @ dealbot

Steps -
1) launch OP link. Stay in the German site ie don’t change over to Australian site as promo code won’t work. No VPN required.
2) sign up or log in using an existing account. If you’re signing up, you’ll need a German address. If you’re using existing account, you’ll need to migrate your account over to Germany to get the free 12 month extension.
3) download the TomTom Go app to your phone. Sign-in to 'TomTom Services' via 'Settings' to confirm subscription for 1 year.

According to tomtom , the subscription is automatically renewed after 1 year, so don't forget to cancel
You can cancel and still keep your 12 months free subscription.
How to cancel: Go to German website, use google translate to navigate, Go under Subscription and Cancel Subscription.

Benefits over apps such Google Maps:

  • Does not require an active internet connection

  • The traffic alerts are more up to the minute (Google's are user generated whereas TomTom's are based on accurate floating car data)

  • TomTom has a more detailed lane guidance system

          Thanks mate very informative

        TomTom Go is a navigation app that offers a range of features that make it stand out from other navigation apps like Waze and Google Maps. Here are some reasons why TomTom Go is better than Waze and Google Maps:

        1. Accurate maps: TomTom Go has accurate maps that are updated regularly. This means that you can rely on the app to give you the most up-to-date information about traffic conditions, road closures, and other important details.

        2. Advanced features: TomTom Go offers advanced features like lane guidance, speed camera alerts, and voice control. These features make it easier to navigate through unfamiliar areas and help you stay safe on the road.

        3. Offline use: Unlike Waze and Google Maps, TomTom Go can be used offline. This means that you can still use the app even if you don't have an internet connection.

        That being said, the choice between these apps ultimately comes down to what each person wants and values . Waze is a strong contender if you want information from the community and updates in real time . But if you want accurate maps, advanced features, and the ability to use the app when you’re not online, TomTom Go may be a better choice .

    How do you migrate your country from Australia to Germany if you have an existing account? When I try to change my address the country is locked to Australia and I can't select another value.

  • docians on 25/06/2023 - 11:41

    Just checking step 3

    Do I have to sign up to the 7 day trial to get to the setting screen?

    Or is there another way to access settings in the app?

    Thanks

    • jamba on 25/06/2023 - 12:06

      Same here. I cant go past the 7day trial option on the app

    • jamba on 25/06/2023 - 12:14

      Just accept the trial then go into settings and log in with your newly created account. It may still show 1 week trial in the subscription so you will need to close the app completely and then open it up and it will be updated with the 1 year.

    • sintro on 25/06/2023 - 12:28

      You only need to tap on car and truck options. Then on the next screen you can select restore subscription.

      • rifter on 25/06/2023 - 14:01

        100% correct. You do not need to start the trial and it is better if you do not start thr trial.

      • Techefy on 25/06/2023 - 20:05

        I cant see this option in the iphone app

      • docians on 25/06/2023 - 23:58

        You only need to tap on car and truck options

        Is this for the android app?

        I dont get this

        All I see on launching the app is a seven day trial; If I try anything else I asks if I want to close the app

  • StranJer on 25/06/2023 - 12:41

    Good app, thank you, got myself a free subscription, excellent. However, Google Maps is more accurate, in my experience, with traffic conditions because there are many more Google users on the roads. GMaps aggregate traffic conditions automatically. It is not the Waze (which also changes over the last few years, in a good way). Google allows downloading offline maps of the area you need, making the storage use efficient. I don't know how good the TT in terms of mobile cameras etc, will give it a try.
    Thank you OP.

    Great find! Ein Prosit to such a deal!
    When Dr Angela Merkel was at the helm, Germany would never allow Google Streetview.
    Now comrade Scholz is busy keeping his leftie girls driving 6 ton fortified Mercs to show how good they are to the environment. Coal power stations and lots of trains without electrification.
    Given that they call Germany the Wirtschaftsmotor of Europe their internet literacy is below world average.
    So they need internetless apps so their Volkswagens need to go to dealers to have their maps upgraded.

    is the only advanatage = SPEED CAMERAZS?

    • Techie4066 on 25/06/2023 - 14:20

      Offline maps for entire countries, speed limits on all roads including school zones, detailed lane guidance, and perhaps some more live road closure/obstacle info + road restrictions.

    Guys I’ve been a paying customer for 4 years with TomTom and I use this over Google. It has offline maps, speeds zones camera alerts which Google lacks.

    • Techie4066 on 25/06/2023 - 15:40

      AmiGo has less detailed voice instructions (I think) and doesn't have offline maps. A bit like Waze. There are heaps of alerts and preferences to fine tune in TomTom Go and it has 3D lane visuals that are helpful for complicated junctions and off-ramps.

  • Utsav23 on 25/06/2023 - 15:22

    Really? What is so great about this offer that google maps, apple maps and waze (which has been free all this time) does not offer? Also does this integrate with car's heads up navigation?

        Okay thanks for the links.

        • There is plenty of road works happening where I live and surrounding suburbs and both apple / google maps seem to do a great job of providing directions around them
        • Both of the native apps allow offline map data for regions you're in (not entire country, but entire country map data wont be much useful for me though)

          • kaleidoscope on 29/06/2023 - 11:00

            @abbots: I almost always use apple maps while driving (integrates well into Carplay and heads up display's navigation panel for iPhone). Google maps is for other things such as looking up business information/ places to eat or so, etc.

      • wombat1955 on 25/06/2023 - 15:34

        Also worth mentioning is the brilliant route planner, MyDrive, which I will be using to follow Route 66 in the USA next year. Of all the GPS apps I have tried, this is the only one that has stuck to the exact route I programmed and didn't try to reroute me to the quickest way once it was connected to Android Auto.

        • capslock janitor on 25/06/2023 - 15:43

          always wanted route selection option for" ëa"siest route"such as least amount of turns/more straight roads ..

            @capslock janitor: Talking about business opportunities, I want an app to take a photo of all my receipts and put it in categories in date order to use for tax return purposes.

    • Techefy on 25/06/2023 - 20:27

      The app detects where i am currently at and download the map at the start. Pretty similar to the Google Maps off-line usage so I think this app doesn’t offer anything new. I am pretty sure it might not be able to navigate me in an area outside of the map I downloaded. So the functionality is exactly same as the Google Maps.

    Great deal. I have used TT since almost the 1st week they entered Australia and cannot get to grips with using another brand or even maps (live traffic is rubbish) . Now Tomtom have left the Aussie market i am clinging onto my main unit hoping the updates never run out or live services stop however i will give the app a go as well.

    Worked perfectly with the OP instructions

  • Ozmrtw on 28/06/2023 - 08:45

    Nothing beats free - so, great deal here!

    However, after I downloaded the WA map and got all up and running on the subscription, Inoticed that mostly none of very basic points of interests are being found through voice search.

    For example: the search function never finds any Coles, nor Wollies, or any other POI's.

    I'm using Android.

    What's the trick in finding the basics through the voice function as the entire app is entirely useless otherwise.

    • abbots on 29/06/2023 - 09:17

      hmm, it should work..?
      I use TT on Android car radio, directly running app, click search, click microphone (mike on the keyboard, I think? there is another one), speak towards car radio, get result;
      I use TT on AA car radio, click search/mike on steering wheel, speak, get result

      NOW, with current AA it doesn't parse correctly at this time; if I say '1 george st sydney', no issues
      if I say 'sydney opera house' it may or may not parse correctly between name and address, current workaround, once target revealed, read street address, speak now street address, hopefully that will get fixed soon.
      (haven't tried voice entry on phone, as it's simpler to finger select on map)
