RE: I must be daft, but I just do not get the hang of Blindsquare.
Good morning own places are things you have to add yourself. And yes that may be part of or the main issue in your case if the maps in your area are not very extensive or if you are not getting a good signal from the GPs satellites that will affect your level of service. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Krister Ekstrom Sent: Monday, August 19, 2013 05:47 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: I must be daft, but i just do not get the hang of Blindsquare. Hi there, I don't know what i do wrong with Blindsquare. Everyone praices it in every tone of voice imaginable but i just can not get it to work for me. Either this is because i'm in a country that has no good maps or anything or i'm just not getting how to do things. When i'm out walking with blindsquare on, it either is silent all the time or it's blabbering away endlessly about points of interest near and far, but not a word about upcoming intersections or what street i'm on. Filtering messages doesn't help a bit either. Why does Blindsquare say own places twice? The choises i have when filtering are: All, shared places, own places, own places and streets, own places and nothing. There's nothing in the settings about intersections and such and how to turn them on or off. I simply don't know what is going on here and what i do wrong, i don't even know if i'm supposed to be able to just do like in Ariadne GPS where i just leave the app on and it tells me things about where i am or if i should start something somewhere. I am just so confused about this app and i'm not likely to be confused. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Check out the podcast, 387, on Applevis. It could answer a lot of your questions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: I must be daft, but I just do not get the hang of Blindsquare.
Good morning, My apologies, as I suspect this has been covered already, but does anyone know of any good podcasts that walk through the features of Blind Square?

Re: I must be daft, but i just do not get the hang of Blindsquare.
The filtering options do not use the word intersections. It uses the word streets, so if you want to hear approaching intersections, set it so it will only voice streets.

RE: I must be daft, but I just do not get the hang of Blindsquare.
Hi Brian, You replied to a message which clearly states that you can find the Podcast about Blindsquare on Applevis, it even gives the number of the Podcast. In fact, there are at least 3 Podcasts on Applevis which cover Blindsquare, OK, I guess two plus 1 where Mike Erigo covers a number of GPS apps including Blindsquare. If you go to www.applevis.com and either look through the Podcasts section or search for Blindsquare you can easily find them.
