Hi Reggie,
While Motion X has a walking mode, I haven't tested it. My understanding from
listening to Mike Arrigo's podcast which included a review of Motion X is that
intersections are not always, or perhaps even, generally announced prior to
your reaching them. With BlindSquare, whether

Much appreciated.
Many thanks and kind regards

Yes Motion X is incredibly accurate. I use it to help us get to mew places
often. And we always arrive there without delay.
I love that app myself!

Does BlindSquare give clear walking directions? Does Motion X have walking
directions or is it just for vehicles?

I cannot address BlindSquare, but I can tell you that MotionX is
switchable between driving and walking directions. You can set a default.
I have at times seem some slightly tricky behavior with the screen, but
once set, it's accuracy in my area exceeds Sendero running on my Windows
based phone
I was worried about the GPS apps after I heard about the issues with the new
maps on the iphone 5. Have they fixed this?

Thanks for the reply Raul. Personally, I feel that the progress
towards a fully accessible GPS experience on the iPhone is tremendous
and exciting. But I have tried Navigon and Ariadne in tandem and don't
really feel that it's there yet. Switching apps isn't a big deal for
me, especially since as

Hello Grant, and anyone else interested, my apologies for not responding
sooner. The message slipped through the cracks and I just now found it
again. The short answer to your question is yes. Meaning that for me,
what I have works superbly and I don't feel like I'm lacking in what I have.
Though it may not be as applicable for everyone, don't forget about
the built in Maps features of iOS 6, with the new iPhone 5 and other
recent iPhones and iPod Touches, which offer voice guidance if VO is
off, and a spoken list of directions if VO is on. The more I use Maps

Hi Wayne,
Is there an accessible way to choose which route to take when Maps offers
several? I can't figure out how to move to any route besides the first, and
while VO speaks the time the route will take, I can't figure out a way to find
anything else out about the route.
Thanks,

Yes. When presented with the list of possible routes, you can
swipe/flick between the different routes. When on a route, such as
route 2, double tap it, then swipe/flick through that area of the
screen to view the time it will take and other information. When you
want to begin the selected route,
Thanks, Raul.
Can you expand a bit on how you use the 2 GPS in combination? Do you use both
on one route, or sometimes one and sometimes another? I'd be curious how you
use both simultaneously, or even how you decide when to use one or the other.
Also, Waze is new to me; haven't heard that one
I use Navigon or TomTom when I require complete directions to a place. Both
apps can run in the background when a route is running, so you can also load
Ariadne or one of the apps which displays nearby POIs if you wish.
I usually just use Ariadne because it has a feature which automatically
