Syncing My Places locations with MyDrive

When you are logged in to MyDrive on your TomTom GO, the locations you have added to
are automatically synced with your TomTom account. You can see your My Places locations and the
POI place lists when you are logged in to MyDrive in a web browser.

Importing a community POI list - MyDrive - NOT CONNECTED

You can find collections of community POIs on the Internet and upload them to
MyDrive in a web browser. A POI collection might contain, for example, campsites or restaurants for
the area you are travelling in, and provides an easy way to select a location without the need to
search for the location each time.
Your TomTom GO uses .OV2 files for POI collections.
To upload an .OV2 file to your TomTom GO, do the following:
1. Connect your TomTom GO to your computer using
2. In MyDrive, select Import POI File and browse to your .OV2 file.
Tip: The name of the places list in My Places will be the same as the name of the .OV2 file.
Edit the name of the file so that you can easily recognise it in My Places.
3. Upload the POI list to your TomTom GO.
Your new POI list is shown in the Places list.
4. In My Places, select your new POI list.
Your new POI list opens showing all the POIs in the list. Select the map view to see the POIs on
the map.

using MyDrive Connect.
To delete a POI list, do the following:
1. Connect your TomTom GO to your computer using
2. In MyDrive, select the POI file you want to delete, then select Delete.
The POI list is removed from your My Places list.

Importing a track GPX file

GPX files (GPS exchange format)
GPX files contain a very detailed recording of a route, including any off-road locations. A GPX file
might contain, for example, a tourist route or a preferred fixed route. You can find collections of
.GPX files on the Internet and upload them to
become tracks after import.
Tracks have a beginning and an end but no stops, and there's a fixed map-dependent route between
these points. Your device follows this fixed route as closely as possible. You can edit tracks using
MyDrive.
Using GPX files
You use MyDrive on your computer to import .GPX track files to your TomTom device. The tracks are
saved in the My Routes menu. Your device will navigate along the GPX track exactly and will not
offer to replan your route, even if a faster route is available.
