I will admit, the price is putting me off a little. I think if I did buy it, I'd wait until it went on sale. Either that, or I got an iTunes gift card. :)
I've seen quite a few discussions of Blindsquare on this list, and I have some questions. 1. Can I mark my own points of interest with this app? I'm pretty sure I can, but wanted to make sure. I'd be marking things like bus stops and maybe some landmarks. I'm moving to a new area that I don't know at all, which is why I'm asking this. 2. If I can mark points of interest, do I have to do this as audio recordings, or can I just use the keyboard to make a text label that either the Acappella voice or VoiceOver will read? 3. I was reading the help file posted on Blindsquare's website, and it said something about me needing to put my phone in my pocket with the screen facing backwards. Is this strictly speaking necessary? Can I do this with the OtterBox Defender case and Belt clip? 4. I plan to use this app, if I get it, in conjunction with Navigon. Won't I need to see the screen for Navigon sometimes? The screen facing backwards thing is something I've never come across before, and it's never posed an issue with Navigon or Sendero GPS Lookaround. 5. I heard about the iControlPad, and that it can be used to control Blindsquare. Have any of you used this device? If so, did you like it? Was it easy to operate? 6. Why might I want blind Square if I already have Sendero GPS Lookaround, other than the ability to mark my own points of interest? 7. How often would you say the app goes on sale, and what tends to be the usual sale price? I would be buying this from the U.S. App Store. 8. Does the app come with the ability to get other voices, besides those from Acappella, like the Voice Dream Reader app does? I think that's all my questions for now.
