Finding MY ROUTES on a TOMTOM Via130

Christopher Robin

I logged onto my Connect and followed the link to the My routes map (go to Road Trips then on the top bar Route Planner), where you can put a route together on the big screen give it a name and send it to Device via the menu bar on the left side of the map.
Excellent, I did this for a couple of trips to Portugal I have up and coming, once you click send to device top right I get a small window informing me synchronising with device, then synchronisation complete.
Question is where does it put the routes? I can not for the life of me find them .

Hi
@Christopher Robin

Sorry but the Via 130 is a NAV3 device and is NOT compatible with The MyDrive Route planner
The NAV3 Itinerary planning can only be executed on the device and can only have a Start, 3 Stops and a Destination, the route cannot pre planned and saved for latter

The The MyDrive Route planner is for the NAV4 & NAV5 (Wifi) devices

Awww that's a shame, it was so easy to set the route on a PC, it took me almost half a hour to find my villa on the tiny via screen with my tablet next to me running Google maps to set the route from the airport, using the drop a pin method.
Thanks for your answer, it's not made my day

Looks like I might have to go to specksavers! :nerd::head_bandage:
