I think you are thinking of the Galileo Satellite system, which is now in Europe and may spread world wide in a year or two if the predictions come to pass.

I was reading an article a while back about some new gps technology in the works that would give you accuracy within 3 feet, which is incredible. can't remember what the article was though hahaha. Have you guys tried an app called Clew? That's C L E W. uses AR for navigation. very interesting.

If you have perfect GPS satellite access, you might get within 30 feet. That being said, have you tried dropping favorites with BlindSquare or Lazarillo? They both can do that. But without physical landmarks, it would be hard to rely on GPS only.

We live in a mobile home park, and it's absolutely crazy-making finding our way from point A to point Be in here. We wish to find an app that will allow us to drop bread crumbs so we know absolutely where we are at every given minute. It would be rather embarrassing to carry a cake to the wrong neighbor, or appear somewhere we should not, all ready to swim. The embarrassing scenario possibilities are endless. We've got lots of programs on our phones, Curt has his Trek, but we haven't yet found just the right thing. *sigh*( Karen At 08:35 AM 9/15/2019, you wrote: Can you set up as a point of interest areas otherwise not found on the maps in any of the free apps?

If you want a driving route, it can launch Google or Apple Maps I believe and run in the background to tell you about streets or Points Of Interest. I turn off explore mode when first launching or it continues to talk about places around you which interrupts hearing what you want in learning the app. Richard Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
