Seriously. I don't mean to just complain and moan. But this has me wondering.
I got a TomTom One for Christmas. I finally got around to really playing with the features. I always assumed there was a way to shut off this annoying feature - namely the auto-zoom which keeps the map zooming WAY in to my location, after I zoom out.
I was shocked when I started poking around and found this was not controllable! I would never have guessed a GPS would be made which would force a zoom level upon the user. I could only wonder "what were they thinking"?
I'm looking around for a fix or update to this obvious problem, otherwise this GPS is useless.
In my searching, I've found all kinds of posts, here and other places, of people REALLY ANNOYED with the auto-zoom feature! I read where a couple irate customers were going to return their units because of this one feature (despite otherwise liking it). This awful feature made it unusable to them, as it does to me.
So that brings up a point. Doesn't TomTom listen to their customers - at all? Don't they realize they've lost numerous customers to this? After all, I noticed many of these frustrated comments were dated 2007, 2008 and early 2009. Plenty of time to fix this problem.
It should be a very simple software fix, just to add a menu item to disable this annoyance.
It's perplexing that, after losing customers and many complaints, they wouldn't make a simple patch to fix this.
