You do not need to use 4square to use Blind square. It simply uses their POI data. Blind Square at this time does not offer turn by turn directions on routes, but you can use an app like Navigon or Tom Tom for the turn by turn directions, and run BS in the background to get the automatic announcement of POI's and approaching cross streets. BS will announce approaching cross streets but if you are in a vehicle and moving fast, it may lag behind your actual position, or miss some altogether.

Subject: Question regarding blind square

Hi

I just listened to a demonstration podcast on blind square. I have a couple questions. I apologize in advance if these questions sound dumb.

1. It was mentioned on the podcast, that blind square uses four square to obtain points of interest. Do Ihave to have four square installed on my iPhone and running for blind square to work?

2. It was also mentioned that GPS info is gathered from other GPS apps like TomTom, Navigon and Apple maps. Do I need to have one of these GPS apps installed and open and running while blind square is in use?

3. I can't recall from the podcast, Does blind square announce upcoming 4 way intersections?

5. Can blind square be used on public transportation?

Blind square sounds like the perfect travelling app for my needs.

Thanks in advance.

Donna
