US version

Robtafrob

Having happily used TomTom Go on my smartphone for a long time I have now downloaded it onto a recently acquired aftermarket Android head unit in my car.

I seem to have downloaded a US version - it refers to roundabouts as rotaries and petrol stations as gas stations.

Minor niggles maybe, but is there anything I can do?

Hi @Robtafrob

We call them roundabouts in the part of the US I'm in

Asprin

There is no US version.
You set it up to what every country you are in.

petrol stations are UK
roundabouts are UK

So I do not know what you are talking about if you live in the UK you should know this?????

AND again for the 100th time if not more times "Android head units" are not supported.

@Asprin thank you for taking the time to respond... you may, however, have missed my point. I know what a roundabout is called in the UK - it is my satnav that does not. My satnav is referring to them as rotaries.

I downloaded the app from Google play and added a UK flagged voice. I am just trying to understand why it is different to the version I use on my smartphone.

I had no idea that Android head units are not supported - many thanks for enlightening me.

Hi, just found this thread because I'm looking to change the voice command from "rotary" to "round-about". I live in Australia, and so hearing "rotary" all the time is pretty annoying and a bit distracting. Anyone know how to do this?

Hello - I solved it in the end. For me, I needed to change the setting on my device rather than Tomtom.

Try something like Settings - System - Languages & input - Languages. I guess that this will vary from device to device. I just needed to change the language from English (US) to English (UK) to solve the problem.
