And $79 is the US price, here in Canada it is $109.99. There is also the Nearby Explorer Online app which is free. It has many features of the paid app, but as the name suggests it does not have maps downloaded to the phone and you need a data connection for it to work. It also has a few other limitations, sounds like it does not give turn by turn directions, just tells you where you are as you are walking similar to Blindsquare. Also, a 1-year subscription for the Seeing Eye GPS app is currently still discounted I think as a promo for the CSUN conference.

Most GPS apps use data but there are two apps I know of that download the maps onto your device, so do not require data. Nearby Explorer, $79.99, and requires close to '3 GB of space on your phone for the United States map I think. Though an update is just out that may allow you to download smaller regions including a map for England. It is made specifically for visually impaired users. The other one with on board maps is Navigon, which is about $60 for the US and Canada, or you can buy regions for around $30, plus it has apps for other countries'. Navigon works fine with VoiceOver, but is not as user friendly as Nearby explorer. Are you app to mostly be walking or using the bus, or what?

Now that my iPhone is being put to full use, I'm considering getting a GPS app--not sure what the proper name is for it; I had a Trekker till 2010. What are y'all using? Why did you choose that particular app over its competition Does it need a data plan to function outside the reach of WiFi (newbie's still getting used to the difference between iPhone and iPodTouch.)?
