Contents. History Early years: 1991 - 2002 The company was founded in 1991 and, until 1996, developed business-to-business applications such as meter reading and bar-code reading. Subsequently, the company moved its focus to PDA software for the consumer market. Early mapping software included EnRoute, Citymaps and Routeplanner. Its first navigation product was released in 2002.

2002 TomTom Navigator The company released its first navigator product, TomTom Navigator, in 2002, for -powered PDAs, bundled with a car cradle and receiver. Version 2 of Navigator was released in 2003, followed in March 2004 by TomTom Navigator 3 for Windows CE, with live traffic data available on subscription, downloaded over the phone/PDA's data connection.

2004 TomTom Go Their first all-in-one device, the TomTom GO, based on NavCore version 4.1, was released in March 2004. It had a 3.5 in 320x240 screen, 200 MHz CPU, 32MB of RAM and integrated SD reader, and was substantially cheaper than other all-in-one solutions, at £499 in the UK. By year-end, it generated 60% of the company's revenue. 2005 IPO On 27 May 2005, TomTom listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange, valuing the company at nearly EUR500m.

Navigator 5 and TomTom Mobile 5 Several NavCore 5 products were released in 2005, with a unified feature and codebase: Navigator 5 for Windows CE and Palm OS, TomTom Mobile 5, and the updated GO models, the 300, 500 and 700. TomTom Plus For the version 5 release, the Traffic subscription service was rebranded 'TomTom Plus'.

Weather information and the ability to download new voices and other content were added. Updated GO-models All new GO-models supported Bluetooth, in order to connect to a mobile phone for TomTomPlus. The 500 and 700 added hands-free calling, a faster CPU and expanded mapping and storage. TomTom Rider and TomTom ONE TomTom expanded their range of NavCore 5 devices with the ruggedized Rider (for motorcycle users), and the budget ONE, in late 2005. Both devices used the SirfStar III GPS chipset, for much better GPS reception than previous devices. The ONE was also significantly slimmer than the earlier GO devices, at the expense of shorter battery life. 2006-2007 Acquisition of Applied Generics In January 2006, TomTom acquired the UK company Applied Generics, forming TomTom Traffic.

Text-to-speech and TomTom HOME The GO 510, 710 and 910, using NavCore 6, were released in April 2006. The 910 added MP3 player and text-to-speech for road names; all models supported hands-free calling via Bluetooth, new RDS-TMC traffic support and 4' wide screens. The 510 and 710 stored maps on an, while the 910 had a 20GB hard drive. TomTom HOME, software for managing a TomTom from a PC, was first released to accompany the x10 series. NavCore 6 was made available as an update to v5 all-in-one devices in summer 2006, and to Navigator users in August 2006. Text-to-speech was supported only on the 910.

In September 2006 the revised NavCore v6-powered ONE was released. An updated RIDER was released in May 2007, and a 4.3 in widescreen ONE XL. Aside from the larger screen, this added support for an RDS-TMC receiver to the existing ONE. Compared with the 510 and 710, the ONE XL, with a slightly larger screen, did not have hands-free calling capability, and had a slower CPU, fewer bundled accessories and a lower price. The GO x20 range released in Q3 2007 had NavCore v7, the 4.3 in screen of the ONE XL, built-in and an SD card slot. V7 had Map Share, allowing drivers to notify TomTom of closed roads, and for other drivers to share those updates, and speech recognition. All x20s included an FM transmitter and an MP3 player.

Launch models were the 520 and 720, while the 920, released Q4 2007, added Enhanced Positioning Technology, which estimated vehicle position when out of GPS range such as when travelling through tunnels. Text-to-speech was supported across the range. The ONE XL HD Traffic, featuring integrated GSM SIM card for internet-linked 'HD Traffic' data, and the ONE XL-S, which included text-to-speech, were released at the end of 2007.

NavCore 7 was released for all older TomTom all-in-one devices with the purchase of a new, compatible map. Some versions of the phone came with the TomTom Navigator 7, from May 2008. TomTom said that they would not make a standalone release of the software, but in 2009 reversed this policy, and Navigator 7 was made available for general sale, without text-to-speech or speech recognition; as of 2015 TomTom had not produced a further version. 2008 Enhanced Positioning TomTom released the GO x30 range in April 2008 based on NavCore 8. New features included IQ Routes, which estimated journey times based on average recorded speeds, rather than speed limits, and Advanced Lane Guidance, an on-screen representation of the correct lane to take. The 930, like the x20, had Enhanced Positioning Technology.

GSM HD Traffic receivers, plugging into the car's cigarette lighter, added HD Traffic to the GO range. Refreshed ONE and XL models were released in May 2008, still based on NavCore 7, with an improved speaker. NavCore 8 updates for NavCore 7 devices, including the ONE v3 and v4, were released in June 2008, giving x20 users (only) IQ Routes and Advanced Lane Guidance, with the purchase of new maps. HD Traffic The GO x40 series, with NavCore 8.2, was released in the autumn of 2008. The x40 series was branded 'LIVE' with a built-in GSM SIM card, for connected features including HD Traffic, Google Local search, real-time speed camera updates, and the facility to search for the cheapest fuel on route. In addition, IQ Routes '24/7' used the average speed for the time of day, instead of a time-independent average.

X20 and x30 users were given an update with support for IQ Routes 24/7 on buying an up-to-date map. 2009 The GO range was updated again in September 2009 with the 550, 750 and 950 LIVE, with NavCore 9. Compared with the x40, changes were relatively minor.

The MP3 player and FM transmitter were removed from the 940 to the 950. TomTom released a variety of lower-cost models, including a 5 in XXL, with many of the features from the GO x40 and x50, including LIVE, IQ Routes and Advanced Lane Guidance. They do not have a micro-SD slot, and are restricted to a maximum of 2GB of internal storage, Bluetooth hands-free, and voice control. 2012 TomTom signed a global content deal with Apple.

2013 TomTom entered the sports watch market with the launch of the TomTom Runner and TomTom Multi-Sport GPS. 2014 TomTom extended its range of GPS sports watches with the launch of the Runner Cardio GPS with a built-in heart rate monitor. 2015 TomTom entered a new product category with the launch of its new action camera, the Bandit. It had a built-in media server, enabling users to share footage in a matter of minutes. TomTom partnered with Bosch on innovative mapping technology for autonomous driving. TomTom launched a new sports watch, the TomTom Spark, which in addition to GPS and a heart-rate monitor, included music on the wrist and a 24/7 activity tracker. The device could store up to 500 songs and came pre-loaded with a 30-minute workout playlist curated by The Ministry of Sound.
