PTV Navigator guides your drivers to their destination safe and sound
Narrow roads, low bridges, no opportunities to turn around – many roads are not suitable for freight traffic. PTV Navigator is a professional navigation solution available for trucks and for fleets. It guides your drivers to their destination safe and sound, and on time. The software navigates them turn-by-turn and only on routes suited to their vehicle profile.
It helps your drivers avoid detours and save time, and thereby reduces overall transportation costs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
-
What is the difference between "truck" and "fleet"?
-
PTV Navigator Truck considers truck restrictions in route planning and shows them on the map.
PTV Navigator Fleet doesn't display physical or general truck blocks or consider them in route planning. Functions like displaying and avoiding U-turns, residential areas, small streets, toll and CO2 taxes are available. Therefore, PTV Navigator Fleet is suitable for vehicle fleets of, for example, Sprinter Commercial Vans.
-
-
Can I obtain a larger number of licences for my fleet?
-
Yes. To do so, please get in touch with us.
-
-
How much disk space do I need for the app?
-
That depends on the maps you want to use. The maximum requirement is around 4.5 GB for the maps and around 40 MB for the app and resources.
-
-
How do I use PTV Navigator on a new device?
-
You can only use PTV Navigator on the device you used to purchase the app. The licence cannot be transferred to a different end device.
-
-
Can I use one licence on multiple devices?
-
No, you need one license per device. Only the test version can be installed on more than one device.
-
-
Can I reinstall the test version after the test licence has expired?
-
No, once the test licence has expired, you cannot install it again on the same device. You can, however, pay to activate the full version.
-
-
Do I need to be online when I navigate?
-
No, you can navigate offline once you have downloaded the necessary maps. You only need an internet connection if you want to consider live traffic information.
-
-
Where do I report missing streets or other wrong or missing information?
-
Please contact TomTom, our maps provider.
-
-
Why do I receive a notification saying that the route could not be calculated?
-
Check whether the route's start and end points are in different countries. If this is the case, make sure to install the "European major roads" map. This is necessary to calculate routes between different countries.
If the destination is in the same country as the starting point, check whether a calculation is possible with the truck profile. If so, the destination is most likely blocked for trucks.
Blocked destination or start areas are generally accessible for trucks, since many trucks in delivery traffic also enter blocked areas. If this is the case, they receive a notification. Only in the case of immovable blocks, such as height or width restrictions or too great a distance from the next street will no route be calculated.
-
-
Why do I receive the message "The licence server cannot be contacted"?
-
You need a Wi-Fi connection for the map download.
-
-
Why is a menu item greyed out?
-
Menu items are usually greyed out if the corresponding content (e.g. the map or the speaker) is unavailable. Please check whether you have downloaded it.
-
-
Why do I not receive any recorded announcements in the car with Bluetooth activated?
-
For technical reasons, unfortunately it is not possible to use the hands-free device via Bluetooth; the recorded announcements are made on your smartphone or tablet.
-
-
Why are the announcements in a different language to the programme's user interface?
-
PTV Navigator's user interface is automatically displayed in the language chosen in the Android system settings. You can change the speaker language in PTV Navigator under System >> Speaker.
Note: You have to download the speaker you want to use beforehand.
