Hello,
I think that Loadstone would be the good
solution. Loadstone GPS for IOS is an app which
enables blind pedestrians to "go blindly where
everyone sighted has gone before." What sets
Loadstone apart from other GPS apps for the blind?
no data plan required
available in multiple languages
create, store, and share your own navigation waypoints with others

Best,

For karen's use case I think that aIra would be the best solution.
You can sign up for a free account which
entitles you to free short calls. This would
probably be all you need if you are fairly close to your destination.

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.

Yeah gps isn't too accurate. 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.

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.

Subject: Re: Lazarillo or BlindSquare
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*(

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.
