Trying to decide which one to get, pay for Tom Tom or Garmin or go for one of the free ones like Navfree? I want it for mainly UK and Europe but also going to Morocco in October. I realize that the Morocco app might have to be a separate one for that trip
I have got an interphone case and Sena SMH5 now just need the app.
Any help and advice on what others are using would be much appreciated.
 
I have the Tom Tom app on my phone. As an A-B (via winding roads if you like as well) it's excellent. Used all over Europe with no problems. I rarely mount it, relying on voice prompts only (it gives road names) which saves a bit of battery life. You will need to rig up charging for any GPS app or the phone will be dead in a couple of hours.

I have a Zumo for following planned routes but the Garmin app lacks the ability to plan off the PC and I find Tom Tom more intuitive as a stand alone app.

Plenty of free ones out there but not as good as Tom Tom IMHO. You pays your money (or not). I've had the Tom Tom for nearly 6 years now, regular free updates, worth the money.
 
Thanks for that, got the charging sorted as I realized that. A mate has also said Tom Tom is good. Like the sound of free updates as well. Anyone know if it will cover north Africa?
Would be interested to see if anyone has used the free ones.
 
I use

Navigon, cheaper than TomTom I think and very good, you can pay a bit more for full European maps.
