Hi,
I make all map and speed camera updates at home via WiFi
I do not use "MyDrive" on my mobile phone as it's old and overloaded already.
I do connect to my phone via bluetooth when on the move.
I seem to need both "Blue-tooth" and "Mobile Network" on to get traffic info etc. (traffic info works fine on the move)
==================================================================================
I would like to make speed camera (and possibly speed limit) updates whilst on the move = when I actually see a camera or unreported speed limit (of which there are plenty). Without either stopping or messing with buttons when on the move. Finding a place to stop and do this isn't really practical.
I know I can make both updates later using Mapshare, but on a long journey remembering exactly where a camera new speed limit or average speed zone is difficult. I know I could save the video clip on my car cam as a reminder simply by hitting a button which is a reasonably good method as I can replay the video to see the location on the map. (would be very good to have a link between the 6200 and car-cam to do this !

What I need to know for this is when I just connect my phone via Bluetooth and have Mobile Network on my phone on but remembering that I do not use the MyDrive app on my phone, am I both ...
Connected to TomTom services.......... and...................... logged in to my TomTom account????
and if so how can I check this from the sat-nav when away from home WiFi?
i.e. I can't check this at home as the 6200 will just connect to my WiFi router.
I don't remember setting up either "services" or connecting to my account via the sat nav/phone connection. This is not to say I didn't do this, and I do get traffic updates when on the move at present.
