Hello rmanno5 and others. You said you had Navigon in pedestrian mode... There is also pedestrian with voice announcements mode. This must be selected,to be able to hear turn by turn instructions. Navigon will not announce streets as you pass, only give you advanced notice where to turn and at the turn.
To Mike Cassidy, Navigon is 99% accessible, in fact i do not know of anything that isn't, but the interface was changed a few months ago, and they now allow the phone to download only the map areas used by that particular person, so many here have had a hard go of it. Two things to consider. Navigon is not designed for the visually impaired so it is not optimized for that use. It does work very well and the interface is easy to use, once you get used to it....I use it all the time, mostly to navigate while my wife drives, with no problems. And, this is a large, complicated program which has a learning curve to operate it properly. If you do buy Navigon, plan to spend at least a couple of hours getting to know the app. Hope this helps, Chuck * *On Thursday, June 14, 2012 3:22:14 PM UTC-7, Mike Cassidy wrote: > Hi Folks, > > I'm wondering about purchasing Navigon, but see that its review rating is > only 2 stars; is this a true reflection of the app's value, or do people > find Navigon worth the expenditure? > > Secondly, is the navigation app in IOS6 going to be a replacement for > Navigon or similar? > > Thanks for your thoughts, > > Regards, > > Mike > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
