RE: Navigation Aps
Hi, Some people on this list like the free My Way Lite. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jewel Sent: Saturday, April 25, 2015 10:34 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Navigation Aps Hi Good Folk! This is my first post to this list. My * first I phone: a Iphone GS32gb: should arrive on Tuesday and I will have a tremendous amount of learning to do. The first thing that I will do is to install a navitgation ap. I live on the outskirts of Gore which can be found in Eastern Southland New Zealand and have a small, a very small farm , but the paddocks are large enough for me to get, enfuriatingly, lost in. I want a simple navigational aid that will tell me where the nearest landmarked object is, say a particular gate/building/fenceline. Reading the recommended navigation aps on applevis, I have dismissed Blind Square, but Ariadne looks promising. There may be others that would do the trick too, but does anyone use ariadne and what do you think of it? Even though I have been messing around with technical gizmos since 1994, I still rate myself as being among those who get a glazed look in my eyes when faced with a lot of technicalities., so if I get bamboozled by tech talk, please find it your collective hearts to bear with me.

RE: Navigation Aps
Jewel, I'd be curious why you dismiss blindsquare out of hand. I believe it will do exactly what you wish. I use blindsquare daily to locate objects that are out in space and would be hard to find otherwise. If it's the price, I don't think that is a sufficient reason. The developer has been very responsive to our needs and I don't mind at all supporting him. I would much rather pay the $30 us. For his app than a $69 yearly subscription to sender. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jewel Sent: Saturday, April 25, 2015 10:34 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Navigation Aps Hi Good Folk!

Re: Navigation Aps
Considering the use case that was set forth, BS may be overkill, and Ariadne would do what the poster asks. The poster has no need for road maps or points of interest, except to set his own, which Ariadne does.
