Sorry,but it is not answered. If there is an option to choose "ask everytime". Why the program is not asking me?. I use my rider also in the car, in this case I usually use faster route,but in my bike I use route with curves. If I have to go to configuration menu,please delete the option "ask"0

Hi
@rafa123
It not the same option as the previous models... You can't set the device to ask you for your "Route type" every time you plan a route
If you go back to the Setting Menu you will see it actually says "When a faster route is available"
If you think about it, the device has just planned the Best/Fastest route available (That matches the selected route type)
So at that moment in time there won't be a Better/Faster route available
Try.....
With a route planned...
Tap on the displayed route, a quick menu opens Tap on the 3Dot Icon
Tap on alternate route > Tap on Change Route type Icon > Choose route type for THIS Journey
OR
With a route planned tap on the route
From the main screen
Tap the 4Dot (.... Menu) Icon (Screen Bottom left)
Swipe left or Tap the mid/right edge of the screen to go to and tap the Current route Icon
Swipe left or Tap the mid/right edge of the screen to go to and tap the Change Route type Icon
Choose route type for THIS Journey

This fooled me for a while.
I believe it refers to when following a route with a traffic connection enabled. If it detects a quicker route that avoids the traffic delay, then this setting is used.
But as is always the way with TomTom, it’s not that clear.
a) ”Ask me so I can choose” is clear and the one I use. Faster routes appear on the route bar and sometimes it asks if I want to reroute, again it varies and I don’t know why.
But with
b) “Always take the fastest route” and c) “Don’t ask me” - what’s the difference? I’ve not used them so I can only guess.
b) will reroute you without out asking.
c) will do no rerouting at all.0
