Hi @manutentore
Welcome to the Community! No, unfortunately, the POI/OV2 sync feature is not available with the GO Navigation App and being evaluated by the development team. We'll provide an update to users if and when this feature is planned for release.

If POI feature is still being evaluated by the development team then they are either really slow or else somebody at TomTom has decided that iOS GO will never have POIs - I suspect that it's the latter.
Come on TomTom, custom POIS are very useful for the user to add their own locations in separate categories for things such as Friends & Family, business, holidays, etc.

pity the transfer function would have further increased the value of the app
POIViewer is a POI manager app. You can import POIs such as: .ov2, .csv, .asc, .gpx (places only), KML/KMZ (places only).
You can create, edit, and delete categories as well as individual POIs.
The only downside is that because POIViewer is a third-party app it is unable to show POIs on the TomTom app's screen.
However, as POIViewer is a third-party app it works with a lot of other iOS navigation apps. So by not giving us POI support, TomTom has pushed us to keep our POIs in a third party POI manager app so that we can easily swap to a competitor's navigation app instead. Thanks, TomTom!
