Correction, Seeing Eye announces streets before you get to them as well as
alerting you to which side (left or right) the upcoming intersection is and
announces nearby POIs

Subject: Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS
I much prefer blind square. It provides more information without you
having to touch your screen. The seeing ehe app will announce streets,
but only when you arrive at them, where as blindsquare will announce
approaching streets from a distance. Also, blindsquare will frequently
announce your current address and how far you have traveled. It doesn't
have turn by turn directions the way the seeing eye app does but you
can use other apps for that. Hmmmm, maybe I should do a pod cast
comparing those 2 apps.

Hello,
Can anyone currently using BlindSquare and Seeing Eye GPS draw any
comparisons in the current versions? I tried BlindSquare over a year ago,
didn't care for it and got a refund. Now that I'm finding myself looking
for
more points of interest, I'm revisiting the possibility of purchasing one
or
the other. It seems BlindSquare talks to map apps for turn by turn
directions, so what would the compelling reason be to take out a
subscription with the GPS app? I do like that the Seeing Eye app can rely
on
Google Places. I trust that more than FourSquare, but that in of itself is
not a deal breaker. Any thoughts on the current products would be very
much
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
