Test and comparison of TomTom for iPhone

TomTom has released on the AppStore few days ago its GPS navigation software for iPhone, which is placed in direct competition Navigon, the other browser I've had time to test earlier. The software works flawlessly and is very effective, but is not free of defect ...

tomtom iphone Test et comparatif du GPS TomTom pour iPhone


Further to my first article on the iPhone GPS and your comments, take stock of software that currently exist for iPhone. Begin by paying to download from the AppStore:

* Telenav is available only to U.S. yet, but it is a lesser evil because its value against TomTom or Garmin is very low. Moreover, the application requires a subscription of $ 10 per month and a wireless Internet package ...
* Navigon MobileNavigator which I previously windy virtues as the first true GPS for iPhone
* TomTom that I present here

Then there are free to install on jailbroken iPhones:

* Xgps that I presented here, requires a mobile internet connection or pre-download maps (tedious and cumbersome in size) but has the merit of being free
* Other systems exist, such as Naviti (official site) or Ida (available on Cydia) but I have not tested. I would however be interested to review them.

From everything that exists, therefore, Tomtom for iPhone is an excellent choice for those who want a GPS software Simple, fast and efficient. Now let's see how it holds up against Navigon.

IPhone Comparison Test / Navigon
Aspect graph

The maps, drawn from the supplier TeleAtlas are represented in 3D, by default, but it is also possible to switch to 2D oriented north or not. Overall, what shocks initially, it is the color, not very pretty but a little walk in the options to change the color scheme used. Personally, I opted for the Sydney theme. It is also possible to change the color scheme for the day mode and night mode.

Note that unlike Navigon, roads are not smoothed, and their appearance is a little cube to start pushing. The integration of IP (POI) is customizable, but we did not find the brand logos (Mac Do, Peugeot, etc..) That I found rather nice on Navigon. In short, the strength of GPS is not his aesthetic.

Graphiquement, TomTom est correct mais n'impressionne pas beaucoup

Graphically, TomTom is correct but does not impress much. Note, however, the wealth of information present.

Search route

I have nothing wrong with the search address is classic and fairly intuitive. We search by country and city, street and house number. The research will be added in the recent destinations. The previous search criteria are then pre-selected in the following entries.

Then, once the address is entered, the route search is fast. In addition, several search functions to alternative route is available. It is thus possible to avoid a roadblock at a distance of around a street or crossing point difficult of access, return to the default route, etc..

Note that the default route found is generally faster (in time) than that calculated by Navigon. This is probably due to the presence of technology "IQ Routes" which apparently calculates the best route based on the user experience. This technology gives TomTom a definite advantage for the route search areas.
Navigon has a graphical rendering a little nicer

Navigon a un rendu graphique un peu plus sympa
Navigon has a graphical rendering a little nicer (logos, smooth roads, sky ,...)

Real-time navigation

Regarding navigation, strictly speaking, it is pretty clear but less (see above) and accurate than the Garmin.

Indeed, for driving on motorways, where many branches looming before us, the particulars of TomTom are not clear enough: "200 meters, take the exit right" when before us, we have 6 channels, 2 outputs right which no one immediately and one in 500 meters, we would rather have the sign of direction ... And just about this, Navigon is doing wonderfully as transcribed almost the same panels highway and indicated with an arrow clear position on where our 6 lanes ...

In terms of positioning on the motorways and the indication of exits to take, Navigon done wonders where TomTom has large gaps.

By cons, what is significant about the TomTom is that all relevant indicators are displayed simultaneously: real speed, time to destination, arrival time, remaining mileage, speed limit where Navigon requires switcher l one to another by pressing the screen.

Finally, last but not least: TomTom for iPhone loads a map of speed cameras and tells us clearly when we arrive in the right direction, near one of them.

Other Features

Other notable features are equivalent to those of Navigon: Profile of the route (driving, walking, cycling, etc..), Points of interest (restaurant, museum, gas station, etc..) With a slight advantage on this point for TomTom also referencing views and a few more schools.

We just note that the voice guidance to TomTom is selectable in an impressive list (sex / language) and better quality: the sound crackles with a high level for Navigon.

The little detail that kills you can listen to music with your iPhone while browsing! I think it's mainly reserved for those with a Bluetooth connection on their car ... If an indication appears road, TomTom is the music paused to "speak" while talking Navigon over (this remains understandable).

Conclusion

It is quite clear, with experience, the 2 GPS is excellent and almost equivalent but each have their strengths and weaknesses.
TomTom TomTom
France 69.99 EUR Price
Europe 99.99 EUR Same
Graphical Not terrible, gaudy color theme by default can be adapted Pleasant, again, the road curves are smoothed
Browse more suited to the city (IQ Route, radar, alternative route ...) More suited to the highway (location on routes, indications trips)



I advise more TomTom those circulating in the city and many are not too demanding in terms of graphics while Navigon, despite its lack of functionality of route search "bis" would position itself more as a friend of the highway ...

Finally, there is no winner in this comparison, 2 GPS systems are definitely excellent from me. We can not even separate them in their performance because they are very good on the 2 with an iPhone 3GS. The boot time is less than 10 seconds, the route searching almost instantaneous or reasonable for a long journey and the fluidity of the whole is very significant.

Afterwards, if you must choose, I can only advise you to take one that most closely matches your profile motorist: rather or rather town Hwy. Bonne route à tous!

Google makes your search more music with Music Search

Que vous souhaitiez en savoir plus sur votre artiste favori, trouver un album ou écouter cette chanson qui vous trotte dans la tête, il parait que 2 types de recherches parmi les 10 les plus populaires du web ont pour sujet la musique. Or, vous savez que Google travaille durement pour réduire sans cesse le temps nécessaire pour obtenir un résultat, quelqu’en soit le sujet.

Aujourd’hui, ils sortent officiellement Music Search, une nouvelle fonction de recherche qui permet de rechercher et de découvrir des millions de chansons, via une simple requête Google. Si vous saisissez une requête relative à la musique (comme le nom d’une chanson, d’un artiste ou un album), les résultats inclueront des liens vers un aperçu audio de chansons hébergées par les partenaires de Google que sont MySpace, Lala, Pandora, Rhapsody, etc.
L’exemple ci-dessous illustre la recherche de « 21st century breakdown », qui affiche des liens vers les chansons du nouvel album de Green Day.



ms1 Google rend vos recherches plus musicales avec Music Search


De temps en temps, il arrive que vous ne connaissiez pas le nom d’une chanson ou l’artiste qui la chante. Peut-être vous souvenez-vous du refrain, ou alors de l’artiste mais pas du nom de la chanson ? Si vous avez entendu cette chanson en voiture ou dans un bar, que vous ne savez pas – ou plus – qui la chante, vous voyez de quoi je parle… Cette fonction de recherche permettrait de retrouver la chanson qui vous tracasse en saisissant juste une ligne ou 2 de ses paroles.

Finalement, un moteur de recherche digne de ce nom devrait pouvoir vous suggérer des chansons que vous aimerez même si vous ne savez pas exactement ce que vous aimez écouter. Google est partenaire de sites musicaux tels que Pandora, imeem et Rhapsody en incluant des liens vers leurs sites, ce qui vous permettra de découvrir de nouvelles musiques en rapport avec votre requête.

Bien entendu, Google y gagne un peu en devançant la concurrence et en y ajoutant des liens d’achat direct fournis par MySpace et Lala. En tout cas, cela reste un service qui peut être utile en fusionnant l’idée de Shazam (trouver une chanson à partir d’une bribe) et de Deezer (découvrir de nouvelles musiques à partir de celles qu’on aime).

En plus, ce genre de nouveauté va faire plaisir à nos artistes :

Avant, quand je googlais un de mes titres, les premiers résultats étaient souvent des sites bittorrent ou de streaming illégaux. Désormais, il sera plus facile d’écouter un titre légalement qu’illégalement. a ainsi témoigné Mike Shinoda (le « rappeur » de Linkin Park) cité par 20minutes.fr.

Ce service est pour le moment en cours de déploiement, à commencer par les Etats-Unis, mais vous pouvez déjà faire un essai sur sa page officielle.

Attention, il ne faut pas confondre ce service avec ce site non-officiel, qui permet de télécharger des chansons grâce à un hack sur des requêtes Google : http://www.googlemusicsearch.com/ ;)

Testing a new GPS for iPhone: CoPilot Live

I tested for you the navigation software CoPilot Live, the latest product released by ALK. CoPilot Live is to Android, Windows Mobile and iPhone. Version of France has just been put online. CoPilot is the 1st application fee on iTunes, Section Navigation to United Kingdom and Italy at the moment, I wanted to see what value this GPS meet leaders of this type: TomTom TomTom and you can find the tests in their respective articles.

copilot Test dun nouveau GPS pour iPhone : CoPilot Live

Ergonomics and Display

As you can see from the screenshot above, the default theme of CoPilot Live is rather pleasant. Unlike the competition, it is possible to customize its different day mode and night mode (which is automatic and based on local time).

The curves of the roads are smooth, fonts are legible and clear information. At the information display dashboard (speed, distance, time remaining, etc..), It is unfortunate that we can display in one or two information simultaneously, or multiple shifts, which is less complete than TomTom. Asked about this, the editor told me of his desire to keep the attention of drivers on the road and not on the GPS ...

The interface is all touch and generally well thought out, the address lookup is fairly intuitive. It should be noted that for once, it does not specify the country search for the software can search all countries at once. For cons, the keyboard is in alphabetical order and not in any configuration "standard" QWERTY, QWERTZ or QWERTY. It's confusing at first, but eventually got used to it quickly. In addition, the publisher will include this type of keyboard in a future release.

It is possible for subsequent searches of the addresses searched view or set a favorite "home" but also a favorite "work".

The voice guidance in French is clear and natural. It is possible to choose the sex and language of his "partner" from a well-stocked list.

Performance

At speed, no complaints. On my iPhone 3GS, the application launching in about ten seconds and the signal is quickly found.

In any case, the GPS is the most fluid I've seen so far and it's really nice. The refresh is done almost in real time and not once or twice per second ... Considering the amount of detail displayed on the screen is a feat!

Sometimes, I must point out that the GPS signal is lost but it seems to be rather linked to the GPS chip the iPhone, low power. This defect does not affect phones Android or Windows Mobile. Contacted about the matter, the publisher says that this defect is the cause of the way "tunnel" which, like their competitors do not work at all on the iPhone.

Features

The real added value of software lies in its numerous features, innovative and useful.

To begin, just like Navigon, CoPilot has a mode Clear Turn "which displays a real view of highway interchanges and a clear view for positioning on the right track. Another significant advantage, directional arrows tell you the next turn and the next, which can more easily anticipate the positioning on the tracks.

Like TomTom, CoPilot Aboard a base of fixed cameras and warns you so very clear when you approach one of them (in a good way) and tells you your actual speed and the speed limit. Innovation CoPilot is that it intelligently inform you of speed limits in France, but also when you move abroad.

Otherwise, as opposed to Navigon and TomTom, CoPilot integrates logos of big names on its maps. This is little more aesthetically pleasing rendering.

Among the features that I did not tested, is that of "monuments in 3D," which, as its name implies, represents the 3D buildings to give you visual cues clearer. Other notable gaps in the version I tested, the way "live traffic" and "fuel prices" were not yet available but will be essential to benefit seriously this GPS compete.

The feature "Live Weather" gives us good weather for several days to the destination or departure city, your choice. An Internet connection is obviously essential.

Finally, the features that are not tested "Live Search" (search the Internet points of interest), CoPilot OnDemand (to download the maps via the Internet which are not available yet) or LiveLink (to share its position with Friends have CoPilot) are little more undeniable, given the minimalist Garmin or TomTom, tip the scales in favor of software from ALK.

Conclusion

While TomTom and Garmin GPS are great, this newcomer CoPilot landed with the vocation to be more complete. Having the experience of three, I must say that my heart is torn between graphic rendering very pleasant and the Navigon CoPilot between function and IQ Route TomTom on the hideous and fluidity of CoPilot.

However, CoPilot has the merit of enabling navigation in city Honorable (calculated detour placement on the tracks, pedestrian mode ...) and being a co-pilot needed for highway driving (speed cameras, for real output ...).

After it is a pity that the space below is not best used as TomTom, which displays a dashboard very comprehensive, but it is possible that the publisher takes into account your remarks via the comments on iTunes, forums and blogs (so feel free to comment!). Furthermore, I believe, if the feature "live traffic" is the height, she will compete the function of TomTom IQ Routes, the last bastion of CoPilot to win the ultimate status of GPS for iPhone.

Comfortable to use, efficient and equipped with many innovative features, CoPilot is therefore placed at the intersection of TomTom and Garmin by combining the advantages of each.
