About MyDrive Connect

MyDrive Connect is a desktop-based application that lets you manage your TomTom account and the
devices associated with your account.
You don't need MyDrive connect to keep your GO up to date. When you have a Wi-Fi connection you
can update you device over Wi-Fi.
If you are unable to connect to the internet using Bluetooth or Wi-Fi or prefer to use a different
method, you can connect to the internet using a USB connection to a computer.
Note: You can associate up to ten TomTom devices with one TomTom account.
Tip: We recommend using a broadband internet connection whenever you connect your GO to
MyDrive Connect.

destination, share locations and favourites, and save your personal navigation information.
