What is a .ITN file?
An .ITN file is a special kind of document used by TomTom Navigator, which is a GPS navigation software. This file helps travelers by keeping a list of their travel plans, including routes and places they want to visit or have visited. It's like a digital travel guide that tells your TomTom GPS device where you want to go and what you want to see along the way. The .ITN file is written in simple text that can be read by humans and machines, making it easy to create or edit.
When you look inside an .ITN file, you'll find information about different locations listed line by line. Each line has details like the longitude and latitude (which are fancy terms for the location's global address on a map), the name you've given to that location, and a special number that tells the TomTom software whether this place is just a quick stop or your final destination, and if you've already visited it.
You can open and work with .ITN files using TomTom HOME, which is a program provided by TomTom to manage your GPS device's content, or POIConverter, which lets you convert points of interest into different formats. TomTom HOME is the main tool for these files, allowing you to add new itineraries to your device or update existing ones.
Typically, you'll save these .ITN files in a specific folder on your Windows computer, usually in "\My Documents\TomTom Navigator Settings". You can create these files yourself by typing out your travel plans, or you can download them from the internet if someone else has shared their itinerary. Once you have an .ITN file, you can transfer it to your TomTom GPS device using a USB cable. Just make sure to put the file in the ITN folder on your device, and then you're all set to hit the road with your TomTom knowing exactly where to take you.
