Product Information

Note : If there is a software update available for your device, you need to install this before you can update your maps. It does mean that you will have to do actual tapping on the screen for things such as zooming in and out, though, which feels a little archaic.

Before you update your device we recommend that you have at least 8GB free space available on the computer. It’s reversible so if you are one of those that don’t want to stick something to their window screen, you can flip reverse and it will mount to a dash.

If your navigation device is not recognised by your computer or is shown as "Not connected" in MyDrive Connect, the issue might lay with the connection, the computer or with the device itself. Make sure you take your time to read through lots of reviews though, not just the ones that appear on top of the list.

This will give you an idea of the materials used and any other key specifications that can help you to identify the quality of TOMTOM VIA 52 5″ Sat Nav with Case against other alternative products that you might be considering.If you are using MyDrive Connect on a business network, for example at your workplace, be aware that your company may have restrictions and access policies that may prevent MyDrive Connect from connecting to TomTom servers. Thanks to Wi-Fi connectivity for computer-free updates and Bluetooth connection to your smartphone, you get pretty much all the benefits of a far pricier model, but without the cost – just don't forget to bring your smartphone.

The better your problem and question is described, the easier it is for other TomTom owners to provide you with a good answer.

You’re making an important investment in this product so you want to be sure that it’s going to be durable and serve its purpose for a decent length of time.Perhaps our only major gripe with the Via 53 is the poor battery life of around an hour – if you need to use it for any longer you'll have to plug the unnecessarily long lead into the cigarette lighter or USB socket of your car.
