TomTom HOME is a free program offered by TomTom that allows you to download any available updates automatically each time you connect your TomTom device to your computer. You can use it to backup your TomTom content, make personalizations, subscribe to available services, and get content like voices or USA maps.
New content is added to TomTom HOME every day, so once you download the software to your computer, be sure you connect your TomTom to your PC regularly. TomTom HOME will automatically detect when the TomTom is connected to the computer and check for any new updates.
With road construction, new streets and other changes occurring all the time, by checking for updates you can be sure all of your maps and other content are as up to date as possible.
