TomTom Sports Connect
TomTom Sports Connect is TomTom desktop software for older fitness devices that synced workouts, registered hardware, and installed updates.
What is TomTom Sports Connect?
TomTom Sports Connect, also referred to in TomTom documentation as TomTom MySports Connect, is desktop companion software published by TomTom for older TomTom sports watches and fitness trackers. It was used to register supported devices, install firmware updates, and transfer activity data from the device to a TomTom MySports account. Users typically encountered it when connecting a TomTom sports wearable to a Mac by USB for setup or sync. TomTom's support materials and manuals describe it as a separate product from MyDrive Connect, which is for navigation devices rather than sports wearables. TomTom has also published a Sports discontinuation notice stating that the TomTom Sports mobile app, Sports website, and Sports Connect desktop application were discontinued and permanently removed, so the software may now have limited or no practical online functionality. On a Mac, any remaining files are most likely leftovers from a previously installed wearable-sync utility rather than an active current platform component.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This software is a legitimate TomTom utility, not something commonly associated with malware. The main risk is not security abuse but obsolescence: TomTom discontinued the Sports platform, so old installs may no longer work correctly and could leave outdated background items or support files behind.
Recommendation: Keep it only if you still use an older TomTom sports wearable and the app still serves a purpose for local device access. If you no longer use TomTom sports hardware, it is generally reasonable to remove the app and its leftover support files after confirming you do not need any remaining device-sync functions.
