Ann,
Turn by turn directions are not available in Blind Square. However,
they are available in Apple maps or Google Maps. It is possible to
use both Blind Square and Apple or Google Maps to obtain audio
directions and guidance from both applications. I would suggest new
users familiarize themselves with the interfaces and gain skill in
using Apple and Google Maps before combining one of them with Blind
Square. Your student needs to identify a street address. In Google
and Apple Maps, an edit field can be found when the application is
first opened. In Google and Apple Maps, the student should also be
sure pedestrian mode is enabled. The other options are driving and
transit modes. Turn by turn directions are then provided. Someone can
also reverse their trip in both applications. If someone wants to
simulate a route that starts in a place other than the current
location, then the user just enters the starting address where the
apps say “use my current location.” Try this out yourself.
