Only way to do this is to use an app where you can set a number of custom waypoints which you can later use, I doubt any apps will help out of the box. Large parking lots or finding stores in more commercial areas where you often have no sidewalks or sidewalks which run along the street and then you have maybe some grass and a parallel access road in front of the businesses followed by parking spaces is always a huge challenge. Often when I use any GPS app to find places like that I get the notification that I have arrived at my destination only to find myself 100 feet from the door with open area to cross. If it's a place where I go to often I try to set a point when I'm standing right by the front door, at least then I can use the getting warmer function of the Seeing Eye app to find it. Mike, somebody mentioned that Nearby Explorer doesn't give you basic intersection information like what you get with the Seeing Eye app, e.g. 3-way intersection, 4-way etc. Is that so? I really like this especially if it is a 3-way since if I am on the opposite side of where a cross street dead ends in a T intersection I may never know about it unless the app tells me so or if I expect that I have to cross a street on the side that I'm on and nothing comes up it can also be confusing. Also, does Nearby Explorer include any transit information in particular bus stops?

When you change direction with nearby explorer, the new direction is automatically spoken, and the upcoming street is announced as soon as it can be determined. With the Sendero app, it doesn't speak the approaching street until you are just about there. With the Sendero app, you have to feel around on the screen to get the information that nearby explorer provides automatically. I think Sendero will need to make some major improvements to their app if it is to remain competitive.
