Hi Keith,

 

Just talked to somebody else about this and there is also MyWay Lite (MyWay
spelled as one word and "Lite" spelled like this). This is the free version
of MyWay Classic, but I think it's pretty functional because the only thing
I noticed that the paid version does is something about uploading Open
Source Map files or whatever they are called. My experience with the app is
pretty limited, but I have used it successfully to mark points when I was
off the map so to speak on a campground.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Thanks, Sieghard.

 

Never heard of My Way Classic. I'll look into it/ I have until February, so
maybe I can wait to see if Breadcrumbs comes out, and how it works.

 

Best, Keith

Hi Keith,

 

My Way Classic is probably the one to look at. You can drop waypoints
anywhere and then make them into a route. I haven't used it a ton, but I did
use it a bit on the campground on Maui where I was last March and while I
too find my guide dog is more helpful than any app, it did let me set
waypoints at key turns and that was helpful. The app is from the Swiss
Federation for the Blind or something like that and I believe it's $20, so
not exactly cheap, but then again the $2,000 I spend on my Trekker Maestro 5
years ago tells me that $20 is cheap. The developer who does Money Reader
and Recognizer is also working on a similar app called Breadcrums, but it
hasn't been released yet and I am not sure when it  will be released.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi,

 

Wondering if Ariadne, Navigon, or another GPS app outperforms others for
ease of use and effectiveness with waypoints?

 

I'll be staying at a vacation property in a few months that is probably 1
kilometer square. As it's private, I doubt the usuall mapping will be
useful, but I could be wrong. Instead, I'm thinking I'll need to set up key
waypoints once I'm there to aid navigation from dining facility to cabin to
pool, etc. Fortunately, the mostly walking-only paths are wide and flat.
I'll rely on my guide dog to get me around intermittent obstacles.

 

Thanks in advance for any insights.

 

Keith
