Yea, it's those turn by turn instructions I'm not getting. I'm using a 4S,
should this be useful info.

I use Google Maps by itself. Google maps give me turn by turn directions
and allows me to switch between pedestrian and driving. What are the
plusses of using blind square, on top of what google maps offer? Just
curious.

I don't do routing much but you don't have to do that in blinsquare. You
feed your starting and ending points into blindsquare and tell it you want
to use google maps as your route-making source and blindsquare takes care of
the rest and gives you turn-by-turn directions as you walk.

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.

Hi Everyone:
I am considering purchasing a gps app for my Iphone.
I was looking in the app store last night and came across the Seeing
Eye GPS app from Sendero.
Since it is specifically for the visually impaired/blind, is this a
good one?
What apps do you all use for GPS?
I saw where you could make a one-time purchase for the Seeing Eye
gps...is it worth it?
Thanks,
Kerri
