I am trying to understand the use of a smartphone with the Go Premium X. What services will this provide in addition to those built in. I do not want to use my TomTom for phone calls as I have extremely good integration with my car audio system and I need to keep that as I do not have my TomTom on for every trip. I like the look of the find my car function but can I use that without having calls coming through the TomTom. The manual does not make this clear

Windows 10 Phone (No Tomtom MyDrive App)
I also use a Nokia 625 Widows Phone, NO MyDrive App available for Windows Phone... Just a straight simple Bluetooth connection.... The Bluetooth connection is very reliable
The Go520 disconnects when leaving the vehicle and automaticity reconnects on return
Setting --> Bluetooth
On the latest NAV5 (Wi-Fi Devices) When you are setting up your Bluetooth... Turn off your Wi-Fi or go out of range of you Wi-Fi (The Wi-Fi will take priority over your Bluetooth traffic connection)
Turning off Wi-Fi... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Wi-Fi... Tap on your Wi-Fi's Name (Screen top left)
Tap Modify --> Forget
Follow on-screen instructions to finish

Thanks for your help. Interestingly I can see none of the above in the manual. What I can see is there is an option to connect your smartphone via the MyDrive app on the phone. Does the above still apply if you choose that option?0 -

Hi
@David_B1
What SmartPhone are you using ???
In the example above....
I'm using a GO 520 (NO SIM) So the 'Data for Traffic and other services' switch is set to ON
The GO Premium has built-in a GPRS SIM... The 'Data for Traffic and other services' should be set to OFF....
If not, the Smartphone Bluetooth connection will have a higher priority and override/disconnect the GPRS SIM....
Stay Safe... ATB YFM1
