There's a free one called navfree which works pretty well.  Not sure how the TomTom app works for people, should be ok for £50

i'm gonna hijack this thread coz I need some sat nav help please too.  I've got a sony satnav - had it a few years with no problem, and last used it a couple of weeks ago.  A day or two later I switched it on and it powered up, but won't progress beyond the screen that comes up when it switches on.  any ideas?

I had an old sat nav which used to go wonky once in a while and freeze,it had a small hole in which you stuck a pin,this would reset it to factory settings.

I would lose anything stored in it however it would work again for a while,maybe yours has a similar thing.

Jakally on the forum has an iphone app that cost him 4 quid.

Looked pretty good and got us to Blackpool ok.

Might be worth sending him a pm.

An uncooperative drunken blind wood pigeon with amnesia could get you to Blackpool.

Ndrive kept asking me to turn in to peoples driveways and put me driving inside fields.  Not too keen on that one.  Perhaps it was my phone or the signal or something, wasn't impressed.   I can't help but feel stand alone ones are the way to go.
