Hi, There is a relatively new app called Clew. Spelt C L E W.

I have heard it is a pretty good app, for remembering routs, and is fully 
accessable with voiceover.

I don’t have the app myself, so can’t give more information, but might be worth 
taking a look at.

Dave.

Given the accuracy, or lack there of, with GPS, you are going to be 50 to 100 
feet off.

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.

and it begs a question here, because we both have Blind Square and like it. 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*(

  Can you set up as a point of interest areas otherwise not found on the maps  
in any of the free apps? Such as a specific building on a university campus ?

    For those who do not want to pay $39.99 for Blind Square, take a look at 
the free Lazarillo app. 
    It does not have the depth of features that Blind Square has; but it is a 
good orientation app.
    If you want a walking route, you can get that from within Lazarillo.
    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.

    Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2.
