Thank you, Sieghard , I had attempted to find it in the app store with no luck. This is most helpful. It sounds though for navigating an area that Blind Square would be the app to have, especially if it points out landmarks or items of interest along the way.

Hi Fred, MyWay Light and MyWay Classic are more designed to record user routes and then to be used to follow these routes from point to point. The app does not use map data like BlindSquare and will not tell you street names, cross streets etc. MyWay is written without a space, but if you search for "My Way Classic" and write it in 3 words, it will find the app as the only search result, but you have to double tap on "Search" at the bottom right of the keyboard after you finish typing. There will be no result in the list underneath the search field and I think often people don't find apps because they don't do that final step, tap enter and then check the results in the picker box. Anyhow, here is the main portion of the description and the link in the US app store: GPS orientation aid which provides distance and directional information to a selected point of interest. Such a point can be an address from your address book or a point of a self-defined route. The non-free version of MyWay also allows file exchange via the iTunes filesharing option. There, you can also import files containing nodes in Open Street Map format giving access to hundreds of POI in the proximity such as bus stops or restaurants. Thanks to VoiceOver, visually impaired and blind people have unlimited access to this app. We recommend to turn on speaking of VoiceOver hints. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/myway-classic/id494282724?mt=8 Regards, Sieghard From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fred Olver Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2013 4:20 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Blind Square VS. My way classic? Has anyone compared these two applications for proximity purposes? If so, how did they compare? Was one better than the other? Can they both or either one be used for walking? I attempted to find My Way classic in the American app store and no luck, someone have the correct spelling? Any information would be most useful as I am contemplating purchasing one of these two.
