tive

tion. This is an easy way of planning a different route to the same destina-
tion. 
TomTom Nav App looks for another route from your current location to your 
destination. When a route has been calculated you can tap Alternative 
route to use the new route, or tap Previous route to use the original route. 
If you decide later that you would prefer to use the original route after all, 
use Recalculate route.
