Oh, no.  I liked your post and keep them coming by all means.  I just meant 
that you might get better help there.  I just don't walk enough streets to use 
routing but if I have occasion too, I'll set a route and let you know what 
happens.

No, google maps has turn by turn voice instruction.  You double tap the 
start button and begin your journey.  It will keep updating you about the 
remaining distance and it tells you to turn left and right. Once you reach 
your destination it tells you that you have arrived and even vibrates. You 
need not to keep your finger on the screen at all.

Cris

Hi,

I'm new here and have very recently started to get to grips with Blind 
Square.  I have never used more than one GPS system in tandom with another 
and, frankly, in some ways would rather not do so;  but I am enjoying what I 
see with Blind Square so far but realise that I don't know anything much 
about Google Maps, except that I gathered you had to keep your finger on the 
scdreen and follow a route somehow.  Perhaps someone who uses Google Maps 
with success could tell me exactly how you work out your turn by turn route 
with Google Maps.  Again, I don't think I could manage to hold my phone and 
follow a route this way but perhaps it would be easy enough to see the route 
at least before I start.

I did buy Navigan some while back but, again, haven't really got to grips 
with it.  If anyone uses this as their other app along with Blind Square, 
please tell me how it all works out for you.

I used to think that Navigan is the best for guidance from point to point.
However, I just realized that Google maps does a better job.  I found out
this when I needed to go to an address roughly two miles away from where I
live.  I could not find the address on Navigan Maps, but I found it right
away on Google maps.
Regards,
Cris

You might investigate BlindSquare. Personally, I think it is a good GPS app,
but it does have its faults as does any app. I have both SeeingEYE GPS &
BlindSquare.

I'm interested to discover what other ListMembers chime in with on this
discussion.
