GPS Drive, Map Quest and Navigone all do. It depends on how accurate you want the app to be. Jordan

Thank you for this clarification. I've found myself underwhelmed with Ariadne, especially considering all the hype. I found the map feature to be unreliable at best. I have very sound orientation when I'm on familiar ground, and when I've put the app through its paces, the map it presents me with doesn't always align with what I know to be there. Still, I do love the concept of an interactive map and have faith the accuracy will improve in time. In the meantime, though, I am watching this thread with interest. Which of the many apps currently under discussion *do* provide turn-by-turn navigation, will alert you when you reach a specific destination etc? I gather Navigon handles many of these functions? Many thanks, Michelle I have very sound orientation generally, and the street names it reads out when I'm testing it in familiar territory have been approximate at best, at least in my limited experience. I do love the idea of an interactive map, however -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andy Baracco Sent: August 8, 2012 9:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Talking gps? Ariadne is good, but it is only an orientation ap. You can't create routes and you can't get turn by turn directions.

I tried it when going to an appointment in New Orleans, and it did not see the medical establishment. Oschner is really big, and it has expanded to several other locations in the state as well. I would avoid Navigone at all costs. Motion X GPS Drive is great even though there is a subscription fee, which really is not bad for the use I get out of it.

Lots of apps of this for your iPhone, Ariadne or Navigon being the first choices. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary Ellen Sanchez" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 3:05 PM Subject: RE: bone conducting headphones Hi if I may ask are there any talking gps devices for blind other than the trecker that are a cheaper price as I am looking for one thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ron Pelletier Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 9:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: bone conducting headphones Hi, I have the After Shokz which I find great. They are rechargeable and the battery lasts a long time. You recharge them in a USB port. I use them with my Trekker as well as my IPhone. You can get a model with microphone and one without and there is only $10 difference in price. They are not blue tooth and, right now, I don't know of any that are.
