If you have a US version of the TomTom 720 you can enable speech recognition address input. Create a text file called support_asr.dat and put the number 1 in the file. Copy the support_asr.dat file to the ASR directory on your TomTom internal drive. You must have map version 7.10 or later for this to work.

  • Also wiping my 940 and setting up from scratch had the same effect, no voice control and dimmed icon for the voice control preferences, but adding the file fixed it.  A sigh of relief here....

  • I don't know why my tomtom go 720 doesn't have this feature.

    Maybe because I'm in Brazil. Would be?

    Anybody know?

  • I love this 720--- best GPS I ever had!!!

    Speech recognition works awesome everytime!

  • ****WARNING****

    Shoppers: TomTom's no longer offer FM transmitting of voice instruction but TomTom & its retailers continue to FALSELY ADVERTISE the feature.

    Existing TomTom users: if you update firmware above 8.01 you LOSE the feature also. TomTom has disabled this feature for the entire world. Garmin, took a much more logical approach & only disabled it in 2 European countries that ban FM tranmission.

    BUY THE GARMIN - better maps and no tricky updates or false advertising.

  • Unfortunately, this feature gets REMOVED if you update the basic software in the 720.

  • tomtom is the way to go.

  • solid text to speech, very handy, never have to take your eyes off the road

  • I just bought a go 720 and thespeakrecognition doesnt work there is not explanation in the manual some one can help me I will appreciate it!

  • I have a Nuvi 750... if I would have known that the Tom Tom does this, I would have bought that instead... I this is even less expensive! Bummer for me!
