Re: ESPN Radio

Re: Medical dictionary and terminology
Yesterday I downloaded an app called medical dictionary and terminology by Kavapoint LLC. It's $0.99 for a limited time. VoiceOver seemed to work great until I tried searching for a word and using the table index. If anyone has tried or heard of this app, I would be interested to know if it's something I'm doing wrong or if it's the app itself. Here is the link to the description of it in the app store for what it's worth. http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/medwords-medical-dictionary/id387631651?mt=8 Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

RE: bone conducting headphones
I've not seen any blue tooth bone conduction headphones, but the folks that make the AfterShokz headphones are talking about coming out with blue tooth this year. Personally, the AfterShokz headphones don't fit my head very well. They are probably a quarter to three-eighths inches shorter than would be ideal for me. But for those for whom they fit, they have gotten good reviews. The problem I see with their design is that if you have a small head, they will be too big because they are not adjustable.

Re: audible app
Hello Alex. It's a bit non-intuitive. You have to go to the info button of a particular file in question. Then, in the info dialoge, you'll find a remove file from this device button.

RE: ESPN Radio
It is the Radio side of the Sports network known as ESPN. From the Frequently Asked Questions at ESPN Radio: 1) What does ESPN stand for? It doesn't stand for anything. but the story is this. When ESPN started in 1979, we were the Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (thus, ESPN). However, the full name was dropped in February 1985 when the company adopted a new corporate name --- ESPN, Inc - and a new logo. Based in Bristol, CT., ESPN is 80 percent owned by ABC, Inc., which is an indirect subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. The Hearst Corporation holds the remaining 20 percent interest in ESPN. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Fanus Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 6:41 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: ESPN Radio Hello List Sorry for my ignorance but what is ESPN radio?

The only app that edits Microsoft Word documents is Pages but it is challenging to use with VoiceOver. There are lots of text editing apps that create and edit .txt files.

RE: bone conducting headphones
Hi, There is the Captain Plus. I don't know much about it but, someone in my class when I recently went for a Guide Dog, had one and was pleased with it. He pointed out that it is not the Trekker Breeze but very good considering the fact that it is about half the price. Myself, I don't think I would have much use for the voice recognition because of the ambient noise when I'm out on the street but he found it good for him in a smaller, quieter town. Of course, you don't absolutely have to use the voice recognition. If you go to Google and search for Captain talking GPS, you will get a lot of information about it.

Re: audible app
Hi Alex, Robin, and Others, Can you also try double tapping the refresh button to update the current status of information on downloaded files on your device? You can find this button if you double tap the My Library button, then choose any of the categories -- probably Downloaded is best. Flick to the Refresh button and double tap. Then try flicking to the entry and double tapping to start it playing. You can play tracks even when they are not fully downloaded. Once you've started the book playing, you should be able to access the Info button in the top right corner. Then double tap the Details button just above the home button, scroll down to the end of the page, and double tap the Remove from device button. HTH.

Re: Simple deleting question
Hi, If you want to remove all text in an edit field, the select all option and then tapping delete on the keyboard is probably the fastest way to do this. Turn the roter to the edit option, then swipe down with one finger until you hear select all. Double tap and all text will be selected and you can tap delete on the keyboard and it is gone. If you wish to only delete a word or two turn the roter to word and swipe up or down depending on where the word is in relation to the current cursor position. Swiping up moves to the previous word and swiping moves to the next word. Once you have reached the word you wish to delete, using a two finger spread gesture on the screen will select text by word. You may have to practice this gesture before it becomes easy to perform. I would start by spreading two fingers slowly, and voice over will announce the word that is selected. If you select more than you wanted, pinching your fingers will deselect a word. Once you have selected the text you want removed, tapping delete on the keyboard will erase it. This technique also works to select lines and letters, just turn the roter to the desired selection and use the two finger spread to select text by the desired block. Also, once text is selected,turning the roter to the edit option will offer the options to copy, cut and so on. I hope this helped. - Original Message - From: Regina Alvarado To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 10:23 AM Subject: Simple deleting question When the keyboard is up and you need to remove something from the window and put something else in, such as in Fleksy when it puts in Fleksy and part of the first line, is there a button or a sequence of buttons, movements, etc. that will clear that window after tapping it to replace instead of needing to clear it with delete one letter at a time?

Re: switching from pay as you go to subscription on line 2?
i, It is a phone service simular to google voice in some ways. It also resembles services like skype in that with the free version you can only make calls to other line2 member for free. Also with the free service, you get a number that anyone can call, though I believe it only serves for voicemail. You can have callsforwarded to your mobile or a number of your choice if you are paying. You can go to www.line2.com To get more details, I may be wrong about some of what I have said since I haven't used it in some while. - Original Message - From: Hank Smith To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 11:56 AM Subject: Re: switching from pay as you go to subscription on line 2? can I get more info on the service? never heard of this app before.

Re: Talking gps?
I'd also suggest checking out MapQuest from AoL. I don't have a lot of experience with other GPS apps, so I can't compare, but MapQuest is free, and I've found it to be pretty good. I'd suggest checking it out to see if it meets your needs before investing in another app. I don't have one in mind, but I'd also suggest taking questions about stand alone talking GPS devices to another list.

Re: Simple deleting question
I must admit that it takes some practice to become good at it. I worked at it for some while before I was very precise. I practiced with text that I couldn't edit at first, such as a web page or a book in iBooks or an email. I did this to become familiar with the spread and pinching gesture, and of course I wouldn't accidently delete anything that way. I practiced like that for a while and used the copy option on the edit menu. Someone on list actually post a while back that when selecting a word, line, etc that doing the spread gesture once to select a block of text then lifting your fingers and doing the gesture again would allow you to keep selecting text. For some reason, this helped me understand the selection a whole better. I don't remember who posted but that bit of information helped me greatly.

I apparently do not know how to do the pinch gesture yet and have never been successful with it. However, I am working on it! Thanks for your help! Reggie -- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Damashe Thomas Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 11:27 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Simple deleting question Hi, If you want to remove all text in an edit field, the select all option and then tapping delete on the keyboard is probably the fastest way to do this. Turn the roter to the edit option, then swipe down with one finger until you hear select all. Double tap and all text will be selected and you can tap delete on the keyboard and it is gone. If you wish to only delete a word or two turn the roter to word and swipe up or down depending on where the word is in relation to the current cursor position. Swiping up moves to the previous word and swiping moves to the next word. Once you have reached the word you wish to delete, using a two finger spread gesture on the screen will select text by word. You may have to practice this gesture before it becomes easy to perform. I would start by spreading two fingers slowly, and voice over will announce the word that is selected. If you select more than you wanted, pinching your fingers will deselect a word. Once you have selected the text you want removed, tapping delete on the keyboard will erase it. This technique also works to select lines and letters, just turn the roter to the desired selection and use the two finger spread to select text by the desired block. Also, once text is selected,turning the roter to the edit option will offer the options to copy, cut and so on. I hope this helped. - Original Message - From: Regina Alvarado To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 10:23 AM Subject: Simple deleting question When the keyboard is up and you need to remove something from the window and put something else in, such as in Fleksy when it puts in Fleksy and part of the first line, is there a button or a sequence of buttons, movements, etc. that will clear that window after tapping it to replace instead of needing to clear it with delete one letter at a time?

RE: audible app
Alex, I hope you haven't uninstalled the app yet because if you are sort of handy with your iPhone you should be able to delete this with Voiceover turned off. Alternatively, don't you have a family member, friend, favorite store or bank clerk *smile* who could do this for you, it takes a sighted person about 5 seconds. Here is what you do if you want to try this and I can do this every time, it might take me 2 or 3 attempts, but never more. First, make sure your iPhone is on a flat surface and maybe put it on a towel or something so it doesn't move. Now, find the corrupted download by moving your finger around the screen (not by flicking) and once Voiceover reads out that part of the book, stop and lift your finger straight up just a bit (make sure you are on the left edge of the screen). Now, with your other hand, do a triple click home to turn off Voiceover. The way a sighted person can delete downloaded books is to swipe across the part of the book they want to delete from left to right, a Delete button pops up on the right side of the screen, tap it and the book/part of the book is gone, corrupted or not. If you explain this to a sighted person just tell them to swipe across the title left to right and then touch the delete button. If you try it yourself with Voiceover off, just put that finger you lifted up and which, hopefully, is still hovering like a vulture right above the corrupted part, straight down and swipe across the screen as straight as possible. You can even put a piece of paper on the screen when Voiceover is still on to cover the top part of the screen (you don't want to cover the bottom half because you have to press the home key to turn Voiceover off and on). Then you have an edge to swipe along. Now after you do your swipe, triple click home and turn Voiceover on and if you nailed it, you can now swipe to find the Delete button, double tap it and you are done. With a bit of practice this works quite well, I sometimes do this even to delete stuff I could delte by going to Info and finding the delete button, just so I have some practice with this. Oh, and don't forget to email or call Audible and express your wish that they make this swipe method to delete titles available in Voiceover, I don't see why it shouldn't work or they could simply do what Downcast does and that is to redesign the app so you have an Edit button, then you could check all the parts of a book you want to delete and get rid of them all at once. I am not a developer, but there have got to be other and better ways to do this which work with Voiceover.

Hi, Yes I did try that here and when the book was corrupted or uncooperative to that point such methods were a failure. Robin From: Esther Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 11:19 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: audible app Hi Alex, Robin, and Others, Can you also try double tapping the refresh button to update the current status of information on downloaded files on your device? You can find this button if you double tap the My Library button, then choose any of the categories -- probably Downloaded is best. Flick to the Refresh button and double tap. Then try flicking to the entry and double tapping to start it playing. You can play tracks even when they are not fully downloaded. Once you've started the book playing, you should be able to access the Info button in the top right corner.

RE: Talking gps?
Hi Jordan, I think statements like Navigon is crap should always be avoided, Navigon works extremely well for a lot of people and by that I do mean blind or visually impaired people using Voiceover. I used Navigon every day during a vacation on Maui in March and it worked flawlessly every time and the information it had including restaurants and POI's was very accurate. Based on good reviews on here I recently tried Motion X GPS Drive and found it much more difficult to use than Navigon, but I won't say it resembles fecal matter because I am sure that with more practice it's quite usable. I personally prefer paying upfront instead of an annual subscription and as far as I know you also need a data connection for Motion X whereas navigon maps are downloaded to the phone and since I don't necessarily have a data connection when I travel to other countries that is a big advantage. How well a GPS app works is subjective at best because there are quite a few factors involved so it's probably a good idea to put things into perspective by pointing out that while Navigon may not have worked well for you it's not one of the leading GPS apps for no reason. I agree that it could be a lot better both with respect to features as well as Voiceover, but it's very useable and in combination with Sendero LookAround or Ariadne it does a pretty good job especially since Ariadne now can run in the background.

RE: Talking gps?
Well that is my story about Navigone and I will stick to it. With the number of things this app has wrong it should not even be around at this point. So my statement is and always will be that it is what I said it was. Data assisted GPS seems to work better for the most part anyway.

RE: Talking gps?
Hi, Seconded. If your major complaint with Navigon is the point of interest database, that's sort of like complaining about a car because they don't make it in the color you want. The key to a GPS app is in route navigation and directions. If you enter an address, navigon does a great job of getting you there. I've never had issues with it getting me from point A to point B. If I have a complaint about navigon, it's in the destination entering user interface. That definately requires some practice time. But, despite the other post to the contrary, I've found the POI database fine for my needs, and since it integrates with around me, and I can send POIs directly to navigon from there, finding a point of interest is quite easy. Also, if you can't stand address entry, the third party app called Navigon Now, can make that part simple too. So, if there are other issues with Navigon beyond it didn't have the one point of interest I happened to be looking for, then by all means, bring itt up an dlet's discuss. --Scott Prayer: begging a god to reconsider its plan.

Re: Talking gps?
I don't think most blind people are narrow minded. I don't think the blind are any more or less narrow minded than the rest of the population. I'd also claim that someone who can't see that NaviGon might be useful to someone else, even though they don't care for it themselves, is also exhibiting some narrow mindedness. I myself am partial to MapQuest from AoL, but I don't have a lot of experience with other apps. I tried MapQuest, since it was free, and since it's done everything I wanted to, I haven't look at much else, except for YellowPages, which I don't like as much, although I'm still looking at it. I would never think to call someone else who doesn't like MapQuest to be narrow minded though. Choice is good, and it's good that we have different options here so people can find and use what works for them. It's not narrow mindedness if people end up liking different options.

Re: Talking gps?
One of the things I like about the MapQuest app, is that I can just enter the name of a business. I don't have to have the address. One of the things I didn't like about the YellowPages app, is that it looked liked I needed the address. This doesn't makes sense to me though, which is why I'm still holding on to the YellowPages app to see if it's just an idiot operator error.

RE: Talking gps?
No. Navigone has Points of Interest such as restaurants, hotels etc. GPS Drive is nice because you can type in the exact business name and it will pull up a list of all the businesses matching that search. It searches the internet to find the business and the list starts with the business closest to you. Unlimited data sure is nice to have, and I am glad to still have it. That is the down side to this app. Jordan -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of reggie.alvar...@gmail.com Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 5:11 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Talking gps?

I myself am partial to MapQuest from AoL, but I don't have a lot of experience with other apps. I tried MapQuest, since it was free, and since it's done everything I wanted to, I haven't look at much else, except for YellowPages, which I don't like as much, although I'm still looking at it. I would never think to call someone else who doesn't like MapQuest to be narrow minded though.

Hi, Seconded. If your major complaint with Navigon is the point of interest database, that's sort of like complaining about a car because they don't make it in the color you want. The key to a GPS app is in route navigation and directions. If you enter an address, navigon does a great job of getting you there. I've never had issues with it getting me from point A to point B. If I have a complaint about navigon, it's in the destination entering user interface. That definately requires some practice time. But, despite the other post to the contrary, I've found the POI database fine for my needs, and since it integrates with around me, and I can send POIs directly to navigon from there, finding a point of interest is quite easy. Also, if you can't stand address entry, the third party app called Navigon Now, can make that part simple too. So, if there are other issues with Navigon beyond it didn't have the one point of interest I happened to be looking for, then by all means, bring itt up an dlet's discuss. --Scott Prayer: begging a god to reconsider its plan. Hi Jordan, I think statements like Navigon is crap should always be avoided, Navigon works extremely well for a lot of people and by that I do mean blind or visually impaired people using Voiceover. I used Navigon every day during a vacation on Maui in March and it worked flawlessly every time and the information it had including restaurants and POI's was very accurate. Based on good reviews on here I recently tried Motion X GPS Drive and found it much more difficult to use than Navigon, but I won't say it resembles fecal matter because I am sure that with more practice it's quite usable. I personally prefer paying upfront instead of an annual subscription and as far as I know you also need a data connection for Motion X whereas navigon maps are downloaded to the phone and since I don't necessarily have a data connection when I travel to other countries that is a big advantage. How well a GPS app works is subjective at best because there are quite a few factors involved so it's probably a good idea to put things into perspective by pointing out that while Navigon may not have worked well for you it's not one of the leading GPS apps for no reason. I agree that it could be a lot better both with respect to features as well as Voiceover, but it's very

RE: Talking gps?
Thank you for this clarification. I've found myself underwhelmed with Ariadne, especially considering all the hype. I found the map feature to be unreliable at best. I have very sound orientation when I'm on familiar ground, and when I've put the app through its paces, the map it presents me with doesn't always align with what I know to be there. Still, I do love the concept of an interactive map and have faith the accuracy will improve in time. In the meantime, though, I am watching this thread with interest. Which of the many apps currently under discussion *do* provide turn-by-turn navigation, will alert you when you reach a specific destination etc? I gather Navigon handles many of these functions? Many thanks, Michelle I have very sound orientation generally, and the street names it reads out when I'm testing it in familiar territory have been approximate at best, at least in my limited experience. I do love the idea of an interactive map, however -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andy Baracco Sent: August 8, 2012 9:10 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Talking gps?

RE: Talking gps?
Hello, The MapQuest has some potential. It isn't perfect but does work. I love the fact you can enter an address as well give you the ability to select from a search. I sure wish it had a Favorite to store my locations. AroundMe is nice if you want something FREE as well. However, this doesn't give you the ability to enter an address as you would in MapQuest but it is very easy to use. This app is great if you are walking to a certain business or shop. It is free and does offer turn-by turn just like the MapQuest and it also provides Favorites. Navigon is very large. The more maps you want the more it will suck the living space out of your phone. However, the upside is that you don't use data. The downside is the space it consumes and the map and POI can get outdated quicker. It is also very expensive. There a lot of people that love this GPS program. MotionX is very nice because the Map and the Search are quite up to date. However, the downside is that it uses data. I'll be honest I don't know how much. So if you are tight on the data then Navagon is your choice. I prefer this one over all of the other apps I've used that are a paid app with a subscription fee for every year. There are other GPS such as Tom-Tom, Garmin, WASZ, MyWay and etc. Don't forget that if you have the iPhone 4s or might be getting the iPhone 5. That the IOS 6 will have a whole brand new Map App. It will be accessible and will offer turn-by-turn navigation for free. So before you shell out those big bucks. Think twice because this is coming down the pipe. Poor souls of Navagon, MotionX, Garmin and etc. that are a paid app with subscription. They will soon disappear unless the new IOS 6 Map App doesn't live up to expectation. Too soon to know! Those with the iPhone 3gs and the iPhone 4 then you will be safe in purchasing those expensive GPS apps. The IOS 6 Map will not offer the turn-by-turn to those devices. :( Regards, AnonyMouse -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 4:52 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Talking gps?

But, despite the other post to the contrary, I've found the POI database fine for my needs, and since it integrates with around me, and I can send POIs directly to navigon from there, finding a point of interest is quite easy. Also, if you can't stand address entry, the third party app called Navigon Now, can make that part simple too. So, if there are other issues with Navigon beyond it didn't have the one point of interest I happened to be looking for, then by all means, bring itt up an dlet's discuss. --Scott Prayer: begging a god to reconsider its plan.

RE: Talking gps?
Hello, You are quite welcome! There is one more thing to note. Somebody had made a great point. Depending where you live and where you go will make a huge difference. If Navagon will be the only GPS program that will work in a non-data area or dead spot. All other GPS program that I am aware of will fail to work. It is a hard decision. I know. So if you hike, go off roading, or go to an isolated area and need a GPS then the Navagon is your bet. If not, I really would look at the other alternatives. It really comes down to your budget and what and where you need it. Somebody mentioned that Navagon that you pay up front and forget. I don't think that is the case. I could be wrong but you have to pay for the additional price for keeping those maps you downloaded up to date. Correct me if I am wrong? I thought the update comes out 4 times a year if you paid for that subscription? So research everything.

Re: OT MacBook
Yep, it is a very different system. First pointer, forget everything you know about windows and your former screen reader. Next, get your head wrapped around the concept of interacting. Interacting tightens your focus in to a specific manipulatable area. You can interact multiple times to work your way down layers. For me, interacting was extremely confusing to really figure out. Also, Windows control is not Mac control. On Mac command structure, control, option, and command each have specific ways of effecting things. Command, which is in the same location as alt in Windows, is the key used for direct manipulation. So, command c copies whilst command v pastes. That said, there are other command key commands which directly translate from Windows alt, such as command tab to switch between open windows on the Mac. I haven't committed all of the Mac commands and VO commands to memory. Instead, I use the touch-pad a lot.

RE: Talking gps?
Hi Michelle and Anthony, First, pricy is a relative term, I don't think $40 to $60 is all that much for a full-featured turn-by-turn GPS solution considering my Trekker Maestro was $2,000 about 4 or so years ago and a Breeze is still $800 I think. On top of that the maps as well as POI listings on it were horrible, maybe this is much better now, but it sure wasn't then. As for buying map updates, you only have to pay the $20 if you want quarterly map updates and that, by the way, is $20 for a 2-year period. If you don't pay this you still get map updates, but only once a year or so. Secondly, if you go hiking or off-road Navigon is about as good as nothing because it only has street maps. The only solution of any use for hiking is something like MyWay Classic or the upcoming BreadCrums app from the LookTel developers because these apps allow you to set your own points along a trail and then give you directions as to how you navigate along these points. BreadCrums, as far as I know, will not have all the maps like Navigon so I am not sure if it will allow for putting in an address or searching for a POI and then to have turn-by-turn directions. I think it's more a competitor to MyWay Classic and will allow a person to enter in a manual route and then follow that route. I have heard nothing new about Sendero's full-featured turn-by-turn GPS app which one would assume would bring Trekker like features to the iPhone. In the meantime for me a combination of Navigon with Sendero LookAround or Ariadne does very well. Of course this may all change in what seems to be mid to late September when the new iPhone is rumoured to be released and, of course, iOS 6 along with it and Apple's new maps and built-in turn-by-turn directions. That rumour about a September 12 announcement does seem to take on more substance and there is talk about a September 21 release. This is according to Rob from the Today in iOS podcast and a number of sources he mentioned. If it's true we all know what's what in 5 weeks.

Hi, Seconded. If your major complaint with Navigon is the point of interest database, that's sort of like complaining about a car because they don't make it in the color you want. The key to a GPS app is in route navigation and directions. If you enter an address, navigon does a great job of getting you there. I've never had issues with it getting me from point A to point B. If I have a complaint about navigon, it's in the destination entering user interface. That definately requires some practice time. But, despite the other post to the contrary, I've found the POI database fine for my needs, and since it integrates with around me, and I can send POIs directly to navigon from there, finding a point of interest is quite easy. Also, if you can't stand address entry, the third party app called Navigon Now, can make that part simple too. So, if there are other issues with Navigon beyond it didn't have the one point of interest I happened to be looking for, then by all means, bring itt up an dlet's discuss. --Scott Prayer: begging a god to reconsider its plan.

Based on good reviews on here I recently tried Motion X GPS Drive and found it much more difficult to use than Navigon, but I won't say it resembles fecal matter because I am sure that with more practice it's quite usable. I personally prefer paying upfront instead of an annual subscription and as far as I know you also need a data connection for Motion X whereas navigon maps are downloaded to the phone and since I don't necessarily have a data

Re: Talking gps?
Navigon and TomTom both do and are both accessible. That said: People continue having a very bad misconception about GPS. First, GPS uses a database. The database has coordinates for streets and intersections, but unless mild turns and swerves are properly plotted with coordinates in the database, the app will draw a straight line. Maps are always being updated, and commercial apps do not charge, or charge very little for these updates. And, if you pay the slight charge, your database will be updated every quarter. If not, your database will be updated annually. Contrast this with the blindness specific GPS products where you get an annual update for a cost which is higher than the total purchase price of any of these apps, and that is an annual expense. Also, in most cases, the actual GPS coordinates for each address are not in the database. Instead, the database has the starting address, the ending address, and the number of addresses in the block. Therefore, the announcement activates when you are a percentage distance down the block that represents where your address would be if all addresses are equal distance from each other. In other words, if there are 10 addresses on the block and you are going to the fifth address, the system will alert when you are half way down the block. However, if any address takes up more than 10% of the distance, you will not find the correct address just by using the GPS system - and this is the same whether you are using a blindness specific system or a normal system. Then, there is the accuracy factor. At its best, GPS can be accurate to 5 metres (15 feet). Therefore, given that the front of an address can easily be shorter than this distance, all GPS systems will only get you close to your desired destination. You need good orientation and mobility skills to find the actual location. And, if accuracy is more toward average, the area is within 10 metres (30 feet). Oh, and this means you are anywhere within that circle, not at the centre of it. GPS accuracy is effected by any obsticles that may block the signal (such as buildings, trees, or even clouds and other weather conditions. On an extremely overcast day last year, my GPS was unable to give me accuracy any better than 500 metres (about 1600 feet). It kept placing me in different towns, and I was standing still watching the display change. It was quite fascinating. I would not trust GPS to get me to my exact destination anymore than I would trust a cane to alert me of any obstacles that are higher than my lower abdomen. So, does this mean I would not use a cane if something happens to my guide dog? Now that would be silly. I just keep in mind the limitations of the cane, and do not expect it to do more than it is capable of doing.

I've found myself underwhelmed with Ariadne, especially considering all the hype. I found the map feature to be unreliable at best. I have very sound orientation when I'm on familiar ground, and when I've put the app through its paces, the map it presents me with doesn't always align with what I know to be there. Still, I do love the concept of an interactive map and have faith the accuracy will improve in time. In the meantime, though, I am watching this thread with interest. Which of the many apps currently under discussion *do* provide turn-by-turn navigation, will alert you when you reach a specific destination etc? I gather Navigon handles many of these functions? Many thanks, Michelle I have very sound orientation generally, and the street names it reads out when I'm testing it in familiar territory have been approximate at best, at least in my limited experience.

Re: Talking gps?
This is because turn by turn is provided by Siri, and you need at least a 4S for Siri. This also means, you will be using more data, though, apparently not as much as Motion GPS requires. According to an article I read last year, Motion uses multiple megabytes of data per trip.

Hi, Seconded. If your major complaint with Navigon is the point of interest database, that's sort of like complaining about a car because they don't make it in the color you want. The key to a GPS app is in route navigation and directions. If you enter an address, navigon does a great job of getting you there. I've never had issues with it getting me from point A to point B. If I have a complaint about navigon, it's in the destination entering user interface. That definately requires some practice time. But, despite the other post to the contrary, I've found the POI
Re: Talking gps?
Navigon and TomTom are the same in regards to they store the maps database on your phone, they are both accessible, and they both have a quarterly map update or annual free map update. I prefer TomTom's interface. The only problem is that, when walking, TomTom has the announcement trigger set to around 20 metres (65 feet) whilst Navigon has the trigger set to 5 metres (16 feet).

There is one more thing to note. Somebody had made a great point. Depending where you live and where you go will make a huge difference. If Navagon will be the only GPS program that will work in a non-data area or dead spot. All other GPS program that I am aware of will fail to work. It is a hard decision. I know. So if you hike, go off roading, or go to an isolated area and need a GPS then the Navagon is your bet. If not, I really would look at the other alternatives. It really comes down to your budget and what and where you need it. Somebody mentioned that Navagon that you pay up front and forget. I don't think that is the case. I could be wrong but you have to pay for the additional price for keeping those maps you downloaded up to date. Correct me if I am wrong? I thought the update comes out 4 times a year if you paid for that subscription? So research everything.
