My old TomTom Device used to ask when I started up, if I was going to work, or home or recent destination based on starting location and time. Does this feature exist in the Tomtom Go app?,
I have created an iphone personal automated shortcut to open TomTom on connection to Carplay, but can't seem detect the current locaiton to then program a direction for tomtom! There is a location command to show directions in shortcuts but Tomtom is not listed, just maps, google maps and wave. Is there someone that can show me how this can be done?
thanks

Hi @resistme
Once I have TT GO working on my cars media unit in CarPlay mode I then use the Siri Shortcuts to set up routes. For example all I have to say is Siri Drive to Work.

I have tried to set up Siri Shortcuts for routes but it only works for Apple maps, not TomTom! Hence I was trying to write an automated scripted shortcut instead!

Hi @resistme
Have you gone to Settings/Siri shortcuts in Tomtom to set them up not used the Siri Shortcuts on the IPhone. I have IPhone 12 mini. If I use the Siri Shortcuts Icon on IPhone then they default to Apple Maps
Ie Opened TT Go
Tapped Settings
Tapped Siri Shortcuts
Tapped Add
Used the options offered to add the Shortcuts for TTGo
