I like BS and NE because i do not like a subscription model as a matter of 
principle.

  I like Seeing Eye GPS although its subscription is $70 a year.

  On iOS, I recommend blindsquare simultaneously with Google maps. Nearby 
explorer did not meet my standards. Although blindsquare and nearby explorer 
was said to use foursquare for its maps, blindsquare was superior. I don't care 
much for the intersection analysis as i use my auditory senses for that.  
BlindSquare provided more accurate information and more points of interest.

    I don’t have Nearby Explorer, but definitely prefer the Seeing Eye app over 
Blindsquare because of the detailed intersection information I get as well as 
because Blindsquare uses Open Street Maps which I have in several instances 
found to be less reliable than Google Maps which I believe is what the Seeing 
Eye app uses and I think also Nearby Explorer.

    Well, if you would consider buying Seeing Eye GPS, you may as well just buy 
the iOS version of Nearby Explorer since it is significantly less expensive.

    Or, a combination of Blind Square with Google Maps is almost as good as 
Nearby Explorer.

    I don't know about the latitude/longitude option with any of the apps since 
I do not use it.

    I hope you find a good combination.

      I find that a combination of Blind Square and either Apple maps or Google 
maps does everything I need because Blind Square continues to run and give you 
points of interest and intersections while the other app gives you turn by turn.

      Hello,

       

      On Android, I used Nearby Explorer. I contacted the dev to see if they 
would offer some sort of a discount as I already purchased their app once, 
however was told I would need to pay for the app. On Android, I found it quite 
good as I could choose what I wanted to be announced, and I could choose 
whether to use onboard or online maps. It had features that no other app used. 
I am considering purchasing the app on iOS, however I am interested in others' 
experiences with navigation apps. I am looking for an app which will announce 
intersections accurately as I approach them, as well as points of interest. It 
would be good if it offered turn-by-turn navigation, although I would mostly 
use Google Maps for that. Getting heading is good. Rarely, lat/long is good as 
well, as I do enjoy getting out to geocache from time to time.

       

      So, any thoughts? It's fine if it is more than one app... Will 
BlindSquare meet my needs? Should I consider the Seeing Eye GPS? Any other apps 
that I should have on my list?

       

      Thanks all.
