Yes, as I said in the pod cast, what is important to one person may not
be to another, but at this point, nearby explorer is definitely more
customizeable. I wish the seeing eye app would count down the distance
to the next street, the way nearby explorer does. Glad you enjoyed it
though, it was a fun show to do, and I got some exercise in the process, smile.
Original message:
Hi mike, thanks for the podcast. I found it interesting that the things
you liked about nearby explorer were what I didn't like about it, and
what you didn't like about the seeing eye app is what I really like
about it. I used to use a human ware Trekker, and I always found it too
verbose for my taste. I like the ability to shake the phone and get
information on demand. But I do agree, I do not need to know my
altitude or GPS accuracy.
Also, I would like to be able to customize the seeing eye app like
nearby explorer..
After listening to your podcast, I took my iPhone out for a walk. I did
not set a route, but just started seeing eye and put it in my fanny
pack's phone slot. As I walked around the neighborhood it told me of
upcoming intersections, and if I wanted to know more I simply shook
the fanny pack to get more details. One thing I noticed, seeing eye did
not announce the street name once I turned onto a different street.
That's something I would like to see in future updates.
