Hello,
I was wondering is there a possibility to replace the Here maps with TomTom maps in navigation settings ?
I am asking this because in TomTom maps i have all the correct roads, but in Here maps there are a lot of roads missing. I am using the TomTom map on the planner, but navigation is running on Here and its messing up my route !
Route planned on TomTom Maps:
Navigation is running Here Maps:
And it looks the same if i open the planner with Here maps:
So how can we navigate using TomTom maps which, are spot on ?
Thanks ! -

There is no TomTom map layer available as you do have in the planner. The only things you can change during navigation are the color scheme of the map (Vulf, Wong, Dart) and the type of map (Explore, Topographic, etc.).

Here maps have a lot of error in comparison with TomTom. What is the point having TomTom maps for planning, so you can ride the route in the crappy Here maps ? Sorry but I dont see the point ....

@Adrian-Avram The TomTom planning map is there for those that use a TomTom rider sat nav and also the latest BMW sat nav’s.

The point is: you have a very user-friendly planner. Especially if you have a Gold subscription. Then you can export the route to your TomTom and just drive.
By the way, for driving a route that you’ve created yourself, I don't find the Here map particularly unpleasant. But well, tastes differ. Otherwise, everyone would have liked Brussels sprouts...

@Adrian-Avram strange because what I see while planning a route that the TomTom maps usually create problems and I do not agree with your statement of crappy Here maps. Are they perfect no but crappy hmmmmmm

if you are gold then use function in toolbox to compare with here map. you then see if route made in tt is the same as here.

That's because you are using the wrong map for MRA Navigation.

Hi @Adrian-Avram,
my personal experience is exactly the other way round: I have seen much more errors an issues when I was using TomTom maps and was and be happy with the HERE maps now
I personally came to the final conclusion, that there is no general better map material: They all have their strengths and weaknesses.
Greetings

The issue is with the map (Here map), i have reported the road section to be modified as highway on ramp and one-way lane.
