Theming to fit your brand experience

- Map theming. TomTom Map Maker provides a web-based interface for creating unique map styles that reflect your brand aesthetic. Publish custom styles and integrate them seamlessly into your navigation experience.
- UI theming. Modify core design elements including typography, colors, iconography, and component shapes. The system-level approach ensures consistent branding across all navigation components while maintaining optimal usability. Use our Figma-based UI toolkit to validate changes with reference screens instantly and export results directly to your development environment for seamless implementation.
Live traffic and disruption updates
Unmatched by any navigation app, our traffic and travel information provide drivers around the world with real-time information and precise estimated times of arrival (ETAs).
Real-time updates and alerts on traffic conditions, speed limits, local hazards and potential dangers provide greater peace of mind in dynamic road conditions. Reliable live information sent directly to drivers empowers smarter, smoother overall journeys.

Integrated EV-first experience
EV Charging Finder
The Charging Finder is a button that is on screen during different stages of navigation to allow a driver to find chargers with a single tap. It’s aimed at users who want to be in full control of their charging plan, and are unlikely to rely on the automatic charging plan. At the same time, these 2 features can work together as well, as it also allows users of the automatic charging plan to easily find alternative charging stops.

Automatic charging plan
EV Routing is aimed to reduce stress and provides a clear plan for users who don’t want to be bothered with selecting an EV charging stop manually. It resolves range and charging anxiety by always providing a charging option for the user to fall back on.
