Since 30 September 2026 Waze rejects routing requests from any client that does not present a current browser's TLS fingerprint. The Toon's QML XMLHttpRequest cannot do that, so every request returned HTTP 403 and the tile showed a dash for both routes. Travel times now come from the TomTom Routing API's calculateRoute endpoint with traffic=true, reading routes[0].summary.travelTimeInSeconds. This needs a free TomTom API key, entered once on the travel-time settings screen and stored with the other settings. Without a key no request is made and the rows stay hidden. The key is URL-encoded in the request and never written to the console log. The timeout, abort and dash-on-failure handling is unchanged. The settings screen and its menu entry drop "Waze" from their titles, and the English catalog is regenerated for the three changed strings. Checked by loading TscClockApp.qml in a Qt 6 engine with stubbed Toon modules, with api.tomtom.com redirected to a local fake: a valid response shows "Thuis-Werk: 45 min", a 403 and a malformed body show the dash, and no key means no request.

TomTom's pricing page lists 20,000 free Routing API requests a month, not 2,500 a day. Two always-on routes refreshed every 5 minutes use about 17,900 a month, so the README now says that is close to the limit, suggests the time window to stay inside it, and notes that an exhausted allowance shows as a dash (HTTP 429).
