How To Get TomTom From Cydia??

Hi guys,

I have been searching for most of the afternoon no but to no luck.

Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to find and install TomTom from Cydia (assuming that this is available of course)

If TomTom isnt available free from Cydia are there any other Satnav apps people are using and rate ?????

Why not go legal and get the Co-Pilot Sat Nav. It's pretty good and only £25.99.

You shouldn't be asking for (and no-one should be offering advice on) downloading illegal software.

There are forums dedicated to this and with the pirated software readily available, this is not one of them

There is a free satnav on Cydia called xGPS that uses Google maps.

Re: How To Get TomTom From Cydia??

Thanks for the advice guys, new to the jailbreaking side of things and didnt realise the cydia version (if there even is one) was illegal.

I have read on other posts that the cydia version of some apps are different and have different features to the paid apps.

I wanted to try the tomtom app before i spent that amount on buying the full version as its alot to waste if you dont like it!

I will try the free satnav out to see if i warm to the idea of my phone being a satnav too as i have always used a stand alone tomtom!!

Thanks again for the info guys, hope this thread ends up being some use to others thinking the same as me!

For future reference is there a way to have old threads removed as i dont want to upset anyone!!!!

Why on earth would TomTom provide a free version of their copyrighted software only for people who have hacked their mobile phones!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another vote for co-pilot at £26

Re: How To Get TomTom From Cydia??

Id also recommend Co Pilot for 26quid.

Cydia provides unsigned apps, ones which haven't been through the apple approval process, you wont find pirated copies of apps on cydia.
