Planning a route using quick search
Using destination prediction
What is destination prediction?
Your TomTom GO COMFORT can learn your daily driving habits to saved favorite Places and it can
also suggest destinations when you start the device from sleep mode, for example, when driving to
Work in the morning.
Getting ready for destination prediction
Before you get your first suggested destination, your device needs some time to learn about your
habits. The more regularly you drive with your TomTom GO COMFORT, the faster you will get
suggestions and the more accurate the suggested destinations will be.
To receive predicted destinations, you need to do the following:
Destination prediction is switched ON by default, but if it has been switched off go to Settings >
System > Your information and privacy, switch on Keep trip history on this device for option-
al features.
Make sure no route is planned.
Do some driving for a few days, planning routes to your favorite My Places destinations.
Using destination prediction
If your device prompts "Going to X?," where X is a destination, you have 12 seconds to respond yes or
no.
Tip: If you don't respond yes or no, your TomTom GO COMFORT assumes a yes.
To respond yes, select Yes. Your device plans a route to your destination.
To respond no, select No or tap the screen to return to the map.
Switching destination prediction on or off
You can turn destination prediction on or off at any time. See Route planning for information on
how to switch this feature on or off.
