New Android app
TomTom withdrew existing apps from the playstore and forced customers who bought an app with lifetime maps into a subscription model. Are they even allowed to do that? Not by Dutch law (which is the country where i purchased the app) and i remember there being a lot of uproar about Sony doing such a thing with removing a function from the playstation. This isn't just removing a function, but a deceptive bait and switch. I hope there will be some media coverage discussing this tactic, but for now the new Android app is just announced and released (together with the existing apps people had paid for being pulled).

MapQuest
Considering the large size of this article and all the details that it has, it should also include the fact that it provides the goe data for MapQuest (http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/does-mapquest-still-exist-as-a-matter-of-fact-it-does/2015/05/22/995d2532-fa5d-11e4-a13c-193b1241d51a_story.html?wpisrc=nl_headlines&wpmm=1). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.53.191.77 (talk) 12:57, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
Clean-up
I took the liberty of cleaning this article up, adding subsections in the main History section. Also added a table of Key Dates at the end of the history, cleaned up many small grammar issues and interpunction faux-pas, and added some information in various paragraphs. Updated several facts (no. of employees and the like), including the addition of a few new products. This article is still a behemoth with an overkill of technical information. Removing all the unnecessary jargon would go a long way to making this a more legible piece of information. This is an encyclopedia article, after all, not an issue of Popular Mechanics. It would undo a lot of someone's work though. Not sure I'm willing to venture into that. Jasperr (talk) 11:17, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
