Re: Can you make Google maps more verbose?
Hi, Google Maps is about 95 percent accessible. You have to fiddle with it before you get what you want. But you have to make sure you select on what you want. First choose directions then select driving, transit, walking, cycling. then either typing your address or go in your history. then it should give you options.

Can you make Google maps more verbose?
Hi folks. I've been trying to navigate a route using Blindsquare and Google maps as my navigation aids, however my google maps aren't so talkative at all, in fact the only thing it says is things like drive west, or drive north and when i'm where i should be Google maps tells me that my destination is on my left or right. Nothing like in so and so many meters, turn left into whatsname street. Can i get such detailed instructions from Google maps and could that be country dependent? I really hope it isn't but i don't know. Anyways thanks for any help. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Can you make Google maps more verbose?
Krister, Are you walking, driving or riding public transit? This could be the reason for your confusing directions. If you are not driving but walking, then you might change your method of travel in the app's settings. I haven't done this before so can't really describe how to do it. I find Google Maps very helpful when my wife is driving and we need directions on how to get somewhere. Good luck, Wayne On 3/14/14, Feliciano G theblindman...@hotmail.com wrote: What do you mean?

Has anyone had success with using it for public transit? I can get the directions as a list, but when I hit Navigate I get bounced right back into the home screen.

Re: Can you make Google maps more verbose?
If you put in a destination, you will find at least one estimated time, if that seems reasonable, double tap on it. Then check near the top of the screen and you will find driving, transit, bicycle, and walking modes to choose from. Then, after selecting your mode, double tap on navigate. If you want a text list of steps, double tap on the navigate menu and flick until you find step-by-step list.

I've been trying to navigate a route using Blindsquare and Google maps as my navigation aids, however my google maps aren't so talkative at all, in fact the only thing it says is things like drive west, or drive north and when i'm where i should be Google maps tells me that my destination is on my left or right. Nothing like in so and so many meters, turn left into whatsname street. Can i get such detailed instructions from Google maps and could that be country dependent? I really hope it isn't but i don't know. Anyways thanks for any help. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
