Introducing the TomTom Speed Cameras app
Read me first
This Reference Guide gives you instructions on how to use the TomTom Speed Cameras app. The
app shows you information about the following types of cameras:
Fixed speed cameras
Mobile speed cameras
Average speed cameras
Traffic control cameras.
The information shown is continually updated by TomTom and other users and frequently sent to
your app so that you always have the latest information. You can also contribute by reporting new
speed camera locations and removing existing ones.
When you are approaching a camera, a camera icon appears on the horizon and you hear a warning sound. The sound you hear depends on whether you are currently exceeding the speed limit
or not.
The distance to the camera counts down at the bottom of the screen as you approach. The Remove Camera button is shown so that you can report the removal of the camera if it is no longer
present.
While subscribed to the TomTom Speed Cameras service, your current speed and the speed limit
are shown even when you are not approaching a speed camera.
Important: The Speed Cameras app is only available for use with the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad 3G + Wifi and iPad2 3G + Wifi.
To use Speed Cameras you need a continuous data connection (GPRS, EDGE, UMTS or CDMA).
Your mobile operator may charge you for using a wireless data connection.

Frequency of speed camera updates
Your Speed Cameras app is constantly being updated unless the connection to the TomTom server is lost.
Your app may not be receiving updates from TomTom due to one or more of the following reasons:
Your subscription has expired. Speed limits are no longer shown if your subscription expires
and you receive a message. See Checking your Speed Cameras subscription.
Your device may have "Cellular Data" switched off or may be in flight mode. You can check
this in your device settings.
You may be travelling through an area with poor wireless network coverage. Check with your
operator if you have difficulties connecting to data networks in your area.
Sharing information with TomTom
The app needs to share your location with TomTom so that Speed Cameras can be delivered to
you. This information is used anonymously to improve our products and services. You will be
asked to share this information when you purchase a speed camera subscription. Should you wish
to stop sharing this information with TomTom after subscribing to the service you must stop using
the app.
Note: The end date of your subscription remains the same, even if you do not share this information with us.
Additional information
To work correctly, this app uses location information from your device. The app has to share this
location information with TomTom using your device's internet connection. Information identifying
you or your device is also shared. This information is used to send the requested information to
your device, to verify your subscription status and to improve the quality of services.
In choosing to provide TomTom with information you are helping to make driving better, specifically by improving maps and traffic flows, and reducing congestion. We appreciate your help.
TomTom will not give anyone else access to the information that we collect from your app.
To subscribe to and use the TomTom Speed Cameras services you must create a MyTomTom
account. This account is used by TomTom to grant you access to Speed Cameras updates and to
offer you technical support. We will not share your personal details with other recipients. You can
also subscribe to TomTom News, which provides you with the latest news, product information
and special offers from TomTom, delivered to your email address.
The app will continuously collect information and send it to TomTom at regular intervals only
when you give us your permission and subscribe to the Speed Cameras service. This information
includes details that identify your device, your MyTomTom account name, and details about
routes and locations.
TomTom uses this information to deliver Speed Cameras information to you and to improve the
quality of TomTom Services.

If you do not allow sharing of information, no information is sent to TomTom, but you won't be
able to receive the Speed Cameras service.
Within twenty minutes of closing the app, TomTom automatically and irreversibly destroys any
data that allows identification of you or your device. This now anonymous information is used to
improve TomTom's products and services, such as maps and average speeds driven. These products and services are also used by government agencies and businesses.
When subscribed to the TomTom Speed Cameras service you can report speed camera locations. If you choose to do so, your reports, which include location information, are sent to
TomTom and kept together with your MyTomTom account. TomTom then uses your information
to improve its Speed Cameras service. If you do not allow sharing of information, you will not be
able to report speed cameras.
Note: The length or end date of your service subscription does not change if you do not allow
sharing of information.
Regional availability
Note: The Speed Cameras service is only available in the countries supported by your app. Tap
Settings and then select About to see a list of the countries supported by your app.
When using the app abroad you may incur roaming data charges which can be considerably
higher than standard data charges. Check with your operator for more details.

Starting the TomTom Speed Cameras app
Tap this button on your iPhone or iPad to start the Speed Cameras app.
The language used for buttons and menus in the Speed Cameras app is
the same as the language you selected in your Apple device settings.
Getting Started
Stopping the Speed Cameras app
Tap the Home button on your device to stop the app.
GPS reception
When you first start the Speed Cameras app, it may need a few minutes to find your GPS position.
To make sure you have good GPS reception, you should use your device outdoors. Large objects
such as tall buildings can sometimes interfere with reception.
Important: The Speed Cameras app cannot give warnings until it has GPS reception. If your device has no GPS reception, the app uses positions from WiFi networks or mobile phone towers.
This information is used to determine your approximate location and download nearby speed
cameras.
Note: Using a GPS accessory device may improve the accuracy of GPS in some devices.
