As roads and information on points of interest change, it's important to update your GPS device to reflect the most recent data. Like many GPS services, Mio uses a firmware program you install on your computer to manage new map purchases and updates. MioMore communicates with your GPS device when you connect it to your computer's USB connection and allows you to move data on or off the device. Whether you're using the value Moov M-Series, a Moov PND model or the sleek Moov S-Series, you can use MioMore to quickly update your GPS maps.
Step 1
Make sure MioMore is installed on your computer. You can install the application by inserting the CD that came with your device into the computer and following the setup instructions or download the most recent version from Mio's website (see Resources).
