The iTunes gift card is just like cash for anything you buy in the iTunes
store such as apps, Books, movies, TV shows etc. Outside services like Hula
etc, you have to pay for those services separately because they aren't Apple
products.

Subject: does itunes card work for payment for subscriptions as well?
Dear Raul and all. Can you use this card to pay for services like hulu? Or
is the itunes card only for purchasing apps?

Hi, first off let me say that I have only been using the Seeing Eye GPS
app from Sendero for several days. The first thing I noticed was how easy
it is to use. Virtually nothing needs to be set up and configured with it.
It speaks the necessary information about street crossings as you walk. If
you are riding in a vehicle and are going relatively fast, then the
intersections are suppressed. If you are in a route, it clearly gives turn
by turn information and it's very easy to figure out what it means.
I'm still not sure if I will continue using it as my primary gps source
however, but this isn't through any fault of the app. Prior to trying out
this app, I usually use a combination of BlindSquare or Ariadne to know
where I am at a given point and Google Maps or MapQuest or Apple Maps for
turn by turn directions. Along with those apps, Hop Stop for bus
information and Metro Trip for my local bus information. Yes, this is a
combination of multiple apps. However quite often I don't need to use more
than one at a time. If I'm walking somewhere to get from point A to point
B usually Ariadne or BlindSquare is used. I'm not in situations where I
need walking directions to get somewhere because usually when I go
somewhere I've already got the directions down and I just use
non-technical orientation and mobility skills to find what I'm looking
for. In a case where a building might need to be found, then Ariadne or
BlindSquare is good about telling me what address range I'm in to make
sure I'm in the right area. For times when I'm riding in a vehicle, Google
Maps is the preferred choice app because its directions are spot on, and
because the app gives the necessary information in such a way that both me
and my sighted driver can use the information. If I were to rely only on
Seeing Eye GPS for driving directions, then I couldn't easily share it
with my driver because in most cases I would have to turn down the speech
rate of Voice Over and on top of that, it's text only and most sighted
people like the visual map elements.
Don't get me wrong, I think this app is great and I still feel that for
many people it will be better than the alternative apps mentioned above.
As a technology trainer myself I will be more than happy to recommend this
to some of my clients who might benefit from it. However for me personally
I don't think it will be my primary gps app of choice. The one thing which
I really like, and like a lot, is its feature of telling you when a street
is coming up and if it's a street which spans left and right, or only left
or only right.
I hope this helps.

Raul, I think you are one of those who knows how to cobble together the
several apps to get the same information as the Seeing Eye app gives you
in
one app. I have never used it, the following statement is just what I
gather from reading.I gather that its main plus is that the information
one
must glean from several apps can be gained using only one app, its
simplicity to use, and its battery conservation, as compared to running
several apps at once.For those not so good at using an iPhone as are you,
this simplicity would be worth the subscription. Now that you have
actually used it some, I am curious to know how
you like it?
Thanks for your opinion.

Hi, it's true that paying per month gets very expensive, but it has the
huge advantage that it only costs you $10 to find out if the program
will
really work for you and if it doesn't, then you are only out that one
amount. Also, if you don't travel much and only need it occasionally,
you
could pay for those times you will need it, assuming of course that you
will need it less than 6 or 7 times per year since then the cost per
year
or 3 years would start to be better anyway. I think they mainly did this
to allow people to give it a spin. I'm taking advantage of that now and
can finally say that I know what the program is really like. So, I for
one
am glad they added the monthly subscription, for guys like me.

The monthly subscription would be so awesomely awesome I can't express
how
awesome that would be. I hope you are correct about $9.99 That price
seems
more than reasonable to me.

Subject: Seeing Eye GPS adds monthly subscription
Hello all. I just noticed that the Seeing Eye GPS app has an update.
Amongst several bug fixes and enhancements they have added a monthly
subscription. I don't yet know the cost however because when I try
to go
there I get an error telling me that it's unable to purchase. Most
likely
this is an error they overlooked because I see the price for the 3
year
and the 1 year subscription, but the monthly one has no price. So, I'm
curious to find out what that subscription will be. If anyone here
knows
what that cost is, please share. I haven't looked on their site as yet
because I'm writing this email just a minute after trying the app on
the
iPhone. So if the information is there, this is my bad for being lazy
and
not checking first.
Thanks.
