TomTom Home, the desktop/driver software for the TomTom GPS devices, reached version 2.6.1.238 late Tuesday. The new version, a 42.4 megabyte download (courtesy of VersionTracker), offers the following bug fixes and new features:
Link to our new online Route Planner.
Fresh new menu icons.
HOME now shows in the bottom right corner which TomTom device you have and offers a button to disconnect it.
It is now easier to get the latest maps by clicking the new Add Maps button.
After buying a new map you can now choose Install later.
Greek added as a new language.
Deselected update items are moved to the bottom of the list and remain deselected until you select them again.
TomTom HOME now stores all username and password combinations (if auto-login is chosen). You can automatically log in with any previously used device.
You need to fill in fewer fields when creating an account.
Improved device linking to better explain the process.
Fewer steps when using your activation or promotion code.
Bug fix: TomTom HOME now allows you to log in with e-mail domains of only one character long: e.g. [email protected].
It is now easier to install TomTom HOME themes and extensions that are already on your computer.
The new version requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later to install and run and is available as a free update.
If you’ve tried the new version of TomTom Home or have a GPS program of choice, let us know in the comments or forums.
