I'm confused! Is this a Window Eyes app or a smart phone app?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] new version of Remind Me Where app (1.3.0)

Hi all,

Just an FYI to let you know there's been an update to the Remind Me
Where app.

This app does various things, including allowing you to explore any
environment (seeing what businesses and other places are around), get
directions from one place to another (you can specify driving, walking,
or public transit, and even get a graphical map to go with the
directions), and allowing you to keep your own POI database.  It also
works with a GPS receiver connected to your notebook.

Along with the usual bug fixes, the big improvement with this version is
that whenever you want to specify a location, you can choose the GPS
coordinates (as you always could), but instead of entering those long
strings of digits where a mistake is quite possible, you can enter the
"What 3 Words" equivalent.  Also, any place generated by Remind Me Where
will now show you the What 3 Words associated with that location.

What 3 Words are an ingenious system which allows a combination of
common words to be used to specify GPS locations.  You can read more
about them at http://what3words.com/about There you can also download a
free app for your phone which will give you the What 3 Words for any GPS
location or your current location.

It suddenly becomes quite easy to pass a location on to another person
by telling them 3 easily remembered words, which they can then enter
into Remind Me Where or the app on their phone.  These also can be used
when there isn't an exact street address for the location you want to
specify.

Enjoy,

Chip
