Join TOMmunity: World's Largest Driver Network | TomTom Newsroom

Every day, drivers help each other without even realizing it. Every journey, every alert and every shared update plays a part in making the road a safer place. At TomTom, we have been building our drivers’ community for the last 30 years, but lately we have taken things to the next level.

Meet the TOMmunity: The world’s largest driver network

Around the world, millions of drivers rely on TomTom technology every day. Whether through the TomTom app, a car built with TomTom software, or Tom, our newly launched road alert assistant, these drivers form the backbone of the TOMmunity. Their trips, movements and, in the case of Tom, button presses help keep TomTom maps fresh, accurate and dependable.

And we do all of this without selling your data to advertisers. All data we use is anonymized instantly and used only to improve maps and alerts, not to track individuals. Your information powers better driving, not marketing campaigns. That’s how it should be.

How to become an active TOMmunity member: Simple gestures make a difference

If you drive with TomTom technology such as Tom, the TomTom app or a car with embedded TomTom software, you are already part of the TOMmunity.

You are contributing to a smarter map simply by taking your everyday trips. But with Tom, you can take things one step further and become an active member.

Drivers are at the heart of the TOMmunity, not sensors or satellites. Tom gives you three easy ways to help other drivers on the road:

  • Report a new speed camera: tap the main button once

  • Report an obstacle on the road: hold the main button

  • Report that a hazard is gone: dismiss the alert with the top button

Every tap makes the map more accurate. Every confirmation makes an alert more reliable. Every dismissal helps clear noise for the next driver.

TomTom’s data is already incredibly strong, powered by more than six hundred million connected devices and the biggest speed camera database in Europe, trusted not only by end users but also companies such as Hyundai, Renault, Stellantis and Denso.

But data only becomes meaningful when real people contribute to it. Drivers bring context. They bring nuance. They spot the things algorithms cannot see.

This is why being active matters: the TOMmunity is not just a network. It’s a safety net.

Why being active matters: Support each other to drive safely

The goal is simple: help each other drive safely, stay aware and avoid hazards along the way. Whether you are navigating Paris at rush hour, winding through the Scottish Highlands, crossing the French Alps or taking a Sunday drive across the Dutch countryside, the TOMmunity is there, quietly working in the background.

With Tom in your car and the TOMmunity by your side, you’re not driving alone. You are driving with millions of people looking out for one another.

Download the app. Connect to Tom. And help build the world’s smartest, safest driving community.

Welcome to the TOMmunity.
