Best Speech Recognition (*)
Other new and updated features include speech recognition (*), meaning users have an extra option to select the address they want to drive to. Users can choose to select the speech recognition button and then simply speak out the city and street name they would like to travel to.
Enhanced Hands-free Kit
The enhanced hands-free kit features a new high quality sound system offering users the best hands-free calling experience via Bluetooth®. With optimised acoustic design, enhanced noise reduction, echo cancellation and an automatic answer function, the TomTom GO 720 and TomTom GO 520 ensure drivers can make and receive calls easier than ever whilst keeping their eyes focussed on the road.
New Safety Features
Safety is a key priority in the development of all TomTom products. The new TomTom GO 720 comes with uniquely designed safety features so drivers always have direct access to extensive safety and roadside assistance information wherever they go. The extensive ‘Help Me!’ menu includes information such as the way to the nearest hospital, car maintenance information and first aid instructions. Another new safety feature is the short-cut menu, which enables drivers to jump straight to their favourite, most accessed information with just one touch on the screen for even easier and safer navigation
Help
Me
The new safety options
include a ‘help me’ button in the menu. Users can use this button to access
links to useful locations, phone numbers, car maintenance information and other
information (including medical info), and get assistance with a large number of
different problems. The ‘help me’ button provides direct access to the most
relevant car assistance services of a certain country. TomTom has made
cooperation deals with a lot of services for this, such as: The British AA, the
Irish AA, the Dutch ANWB, the Italian ACI, the Luxembourg ACL, the Portuguese
ACP, the French ACTA, the German ADAC, the Finnish Al, the Danish FDM, the
Swedish Motormännen, the Norwegian NAF, the Austrian ÖMATC, the Spanish RACE,
the Polish Starter, the Belgian SOS Touring, the Swiss TCS and the Czech
UAMK.
The TomTom GO 520 and 720 both contain a complete database of important locations and phone numbers, like the numbers of emergency services, but also information on the nearest car dealer, pharmacy or police station which are all displayed very intuitively. The user can dial the phone number which is displayed on the screen, while the TomTom system pinpoints where the user is, both on the map, and in text, and even with satellite coordinates, precise up to one metre. In the mean time, or instead, the user can plan his route to the nearest location. This can be by a car or a pedestrian route. Thanks to the seamless software integration and TomTom’s handsfree functionality, the system also offers the possibility of directly dialling the number of a car assistance service via a handsfree connection to a mobile phone with Bluetooth connection.
Traffic Ready (**)
The new TomTom GO 720 offers the latest and most up-to-date traffic information through its compatibility with RDS-TMC Traffic and TomTom’s Traffic subscription, making drivers’ journeys more efficient and stress-free. The enhanced traffic information user interface provides drivers with the most accurate route calculation by taking into account the current traffic information on the road and giving precise information about traffic incidents.
Audio Options & Built-in FM Transmitter
The new TomTom GO 720 comes with extensive audio options for flawless integration with the car stereo and user’s phone. Drivers can play their favourite songs through the integrated MP3 player or by connecting their iPod to the TomTom GO 720.

Smart and Fun Extras
With the new Tom Tom GO 720, drivers can choose from a host of smart extras, making sure the destination is reached in a relaxed and enjoyable way.

Drivers can also view documents and pictures and exchange positions, destinations and other content with other TomTom GO users, through Bluetooth® wireless technology.
