13. TomTom Map Share TomTom Map Share TomTom Map ShareTM is a free service that lets you make updates to your map and if you want to, share those updates with other members of the TomTom Map Share community. If you find a street that has recently been blocked to traffic which was open before, you can use Map Share to update your map and then share the update with other Map Share members. You can use Map Share to send and receive map updates during the first year after the map's release date. This means that one year after the release date, you will no longer be able to send or receive map updates for that version of the map - You will still be able to make updates to your own map for use on your own device. When you join the TomTom Map Share community you can keep your maps up-to-date with the latest updates made by other Map Share community members. You choose the type of updates you want and each time you connect your TomTom XL to TomTom HOME, the map is automatically updated. Map updates There are two types of map update: • Updates that are immediately shown on the map. These include, changing the traffic flow of a street, blocking or renaming a street and adding or editing POIs. This type of change is immediately shown on your own map. You can hide these updates at any time in the Map Share preferences menu. • Updates that are reported to TomTom but not shown immediately on your map. These include, missing streets, errors in motorway entrances and exits and missing roundabouts. This type of update is investigated by TomTom and once verified, is included in the next map release. These updates are therefore not shared with the Map Share community. 39
