TomTom has launched a 30-day trial of its Navigation app for iPhone, extending the reach of the company’s services to more drivers.

The new trial app provides drivers with access to TomTom Traffic, along with all the features and functionalities of the latest TomTom Navigation app.

According to the company, TomTom Traffic provides precise and accurate real-time information, and allows drivers to get to their destination faster.

It covers 99.9% of all road types, compared to TMC-based traffic with only 9% coverage, and uses a pool of crowd-sourced data from more than 150 million drivers in North America.

TomTom Traffic also highlights accurate traffic reports in real-time, while delivering up-to-date traffic information every two minutes.

TomTom managing director Jocelyn Vigreux said: "For the first time, we are offering iPhone and iPad owners the chance to experience the power of premium TomTom Navigation and TomTom Traffic for themselves.

"Once drivers experience how TomTom can help them avoid traffic and get there faster, we are confident they won’t want to drive without TomTom ever again."

Tailored for iPhone and iPad, the trial app allows users to store maps on the device, eliminating problems such as mobile data coverage or additional charges.

It also offers Free Lifetime Maps that allow drivers to navigate with the most accurate TomTom maps.

Additionally, IQ Routes provides the fastest routes and accurate arrival times based on the time and date of travel.
