TomTom Map Share™With TomTom Map Share, you can correct errors on your map and share 
those corrections with other people in the TomTom Map Share community, 
as well as receiving corrections made by others.
Note: TomTom Map Share is not available in all regions. For more informa-
tion, go to tomtom.com/mapshare.
Map corrections
There are two types of map correction:
• Corrections that are immediately shown on the map. These include, chang-
ing the traffic flow of a street, blocking or renaming a street and adding or 
editing POIs.
This type of change is immediately shown on your own map. You can hide 
these corrections at any time in the Map Share preferences menu.
• Corrections that are reported to TomTom but not shown immediately on 
your map. These include, missing streets, errors in motorway entrances 
and exits and missing roundabouts.
This type of correction is investigated by TomTom and once verified, is 
included in the next map release. These corrections are therefore not shared 
with the Map Share community.

erences menu.
Marking a map error while on the move

driving. Do not enter the full details of an error while you are driving.
If you notice an item on your map that needs attention, you can mark the loca-

following:

you open the Map corrections menu.
For example, you are driving to a friends house and you notice that the name 
of the street you are on is different from the one on your map. To report the 
change, tap the Report button and your ONE/XL/XXL will save your current 
location. You can then send the correction to TomTom Map Share when you
