I don't know if you have an Apple Watch, but if you do, you can supplement BlindSquare with it. It gives you tactile turning directions (2 vibrates for right, 10 for left). It also vibrates in a different pattern when you arrive at your destination. You have to use this in conjunction with Apple Maps.
