It would be cool for those who ownnavigon if ne could use those maps, sure 
would save space. Right now I just use blindsquare and either google or apple 
maps.

Subject: Re: How do Nearby Explorer and Sendaro Seeing GPS compare?


Thanks, I forgot to mention the fact that Nearby Explorer downloads the maps 
onto your phone.
That is a huge difference that I completely spaced.
That is a good advantage in case you travel through an area that doesn't have 
decent cell coverage. You just need to be able to use a few satellites, which 
is easier than you would think.
Navigon is another GPS app that stores the maps on the phone, but Nearby 
Explorer has been designed for visually impaired, so it gives you more 
information. than Navigon.
