I am still running IOS 7.12 and have no problems with Blind Square
whatsoever. I have a friend using it with IOS 8.1 and she has some strange
problems so I suspect a conflict with the new OS. But from past experience
with the app, I feel sure the developers will correct the problems if they
can.

Hi Anne,
Do you find that sometimes Blindsquare constantly repeats telling you how
far you walked in a certain amount of time? I used it the other day and it
would speak that information over and over. Usually after it repeated 4 or 5
times then it would switch to telling me I had walked another hundert meters
and it kept repeating that over and over again. I don't know what causes
this because it doesn't do it all the time but when it does it is super
annoying.
I wish they added an option where I could just request this information when
I want, I don't find it very useful to have it announced every 5 minutes let
along constantly.
Regards,
Sieghard

I love BlindSquare! I live in France but have my iPhone running in English.
However, I am able to set BlindSquare to speak French. I am selective about
what I want to hear, but I do like the way it announces intersections. It
usually warns me of an intersection around 15 m away and tells me the names
of the streets. It also tells me how far I’ve walked and how long it’s taken
me.
I found BlindSquare invaluable when I got a new guide dog last year, before
she’d learned my usual routes. It got me home safely a number of times when
we got lost in my home village which doesn’t seem to have a straight road or
corner at 90 degrees!
Cheers,
Anne
