On our old Tomtom we had Sean to give us directions in a gentle Irish brogue. On our new Via52 he's not included and I cannot find him in the downloadable extra voices. Any clues how we could get our old friend back?
Thanks,
Pete

    You could try Aonhus if you cannot find "Sean" :-
    via tapping the 4 dots ... > "Settings" > "Voices" > "Choose a voice" > "All the voices" and scrolling up & down

    Thanks but I'm in Australia so it is not available. Why would they do that?
    Appreciate your input but doesn't work here.
    Cheers,
    Pete

    Sorry the link to Aonghus should have been https://www.tomtom.com/en_au/drive/maps-services/shop/navigation-voices/aonghus/

    Thanks Niall I think you've nailed it (pun intended) although the download did not work:
    "Sorry, we are unable to add the product to the basket because a maximum is exceeded."
    Whatever that means so I will call the 1300 number tomorrow. Thanks for your help!

    Just noticed on the order page that Aonghus speaks Irish. Sadly, I don't. Sean, bless his cotton socks spoke English with an Irish accent.
    I'll try that number tomorrow. Cheers,
    Pete

    I spoke with TomTom today. Was told that what I seek is not available. No such thing as a special download. Boo hoo! We'll miss our old mate Sean.:sob:

    I see that you don't have a device linked to your TomTom account you are using for the community.

    Is it linked to a different email address?

    Could you send me the serial number through a private message by clicking on this link, please?

    Thanks

    I have reached out to a TomTom staffer to see what is possible ;)

    I'm puzzled, according to MyDrive Connect I have the two devices. PM sent
