TomTomNavigation
public protocol TomTomNavigation : AnyObject
The TomTomNavigation protocol serves as the primary interface for controlling the navigation process.
It provides a comprehensive set of functionalities for managing and customizing a navigation session.
To manage the lifecycle of a navigation session, the protocol offers methods to start() and stop() navigation.
It also provides functionality to set and select active routes.
The protocol also includes a range of observers that allow developers to receive updates on various aspects of the navigation.
In addition to the observers, the interface enables customization of the navigation experience. Note that by
changing these properties in runtime, the navigation initialization configuration is overridden.
Users can configure the betterProposalAcceptanceMode, which determines how to handle better route proposals.
Users can also choose the deviationReplanningMode, which defines whether the navigation automatically replans
the route.
The unitSystem and preferredLanguage can be customized to provide guidance instructions and announcements in
the desired format and language.
Important
The current implementation of this API isn’t thread-safe and it’s recommended to make API calls always on the same thread.-
Provides access to current registered engines and allows updating them.
Important
This is a Public Preview API. It may be changed or removed at any time.Declaration
Swift
var navigationEngineRegistry: NavigationEngineRegistry { get set } -
The
VehicleProviderused by theTomTomNavigationfor providing vehicle updates to the navigation. Information fromVehicleProvider.vehicleis leveraged by theTomTomSDKNavigationEngines/HorizonEngineto provide the relevant virtual horizon. Additionally, it is used as a request parameter for route replannings during the navigation session. Notably, it supersedes any vehicle information specified in theTomTomSDKRoutePlanner/RoutePlanningOptionswhether at the navigation start, or during any subsequent automatic or manual route replanning events.

Starts navigation without specifying a
TomTomSDKRoute/Route.Use this method to start the navigation in free driving mode.
Navigation goes through the following steps:
- Providing the
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/MapMatchingResultviaLocationMapMatchingObserver. - Providing the updated
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/LocationContextviaNavigationLocationContextObserver. - Providing the updated
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/HorizonSnapshotviaNavigationHorizonObserver.
As a result of successful action, the following observer is notified:
NavigationStateChangeObserver, with the state set tofreeDriving.
For examples on how to start navigation, see the developer documentation.
Throws
An error if navigation has already started.Declaration
Swift
func start() throws - Providing the
-
Starts navigation with the provided
NavigationOptions.Use this method to start the navigation in active guidance mode with the provided
TomTomSDKRoute/Routewithin theNavigationOptions.Navigation goes through the following steps:
- Providing the
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/MapMatchingResultviaLocationMapMatchingObserver. - Providing the updated
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/LocationContextviaNavigationLocationContextObserver. - Providing the updated
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/HorizonSnapshotviaNavigationHorizonObserver.
Additionally, the system performs the following operations for the active, i.e., currently navigated
TomTomSDKRoute/Routewithin theNavigationOptions:- Calculating
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/RouteProgressand updating viaNavigationProgressObserver. - Checking all followed routes and deviations via
NavigationRouteTrackingStateUpdateObserver. - Generating
TomTomSDKNavigationEngines/GuidanceviaGuidanceUpdateObserver. - Detecting arrival, possibly calling
NavigationDestinationArrivalObserverorNavigationWaypointArrivalObserver.
As a result of successful action, the following observer is notified:
NavigationStateChangeObserver, with the state set toactiveGuidance.NavigationRouteAddObserver, with theTomTomSDKRoute/RouteandTomTomSDKRoutePlanner/RoutePlanningOptionsset inactiveRoutePlan, andnavigationStarted.NavigationActiveRouteChangeObserver, with theTomTomSDKRoute/Routeset inactiveRoutePlan.
For examples on how to start navigation, see the developer documentation.

The specified
waypointis marked as having been departed from andNavigationWaypointArrivalObserverare notified about this viaNavigationDestinationArrivalObserver/didArriveAtWaypoint(waypoint:on:).Notification via
NavigationDestinationArrivalObserver/didArriveAtWaypoint(waypoint:on:)completes arrival detection for that particularwaypoint. Navigation switches to arrival detection for the nextwaypoint, if there is one present.Prerequisites for this action:
