Re: GPS on iOS

I have tried Via nav, and i guess if you are not off hiking, it might work, will have to try more though. I am curious, what does others in europe use if you are out in the country... Sent from my iPad > On 7 Jan 2018, at 22.10, David Chittenden wrote: > > There are some transit systems w

Re: GPS on iOS

There are some transit systems which post the vehicle's location real-time on their transit feed. When this is the case, Moovit appears to access said info. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 7 Jan 2018, at 22

Re: GPS on iOS

In Moovit, is it possible when you’ve made a route to see upcoming busses in realtime, that is not only when they are estimated to arrive according to time table but when it actually is to arrive if you understand what i mean. /Krister > 7 jan. 2018 kl. 13:47 skrev David Chittenden : > > I mai

Re: GPS on iOS

I mainly use Apple Maps. I occasionally use Google Maps. When using public transit, I use moovit. I occasionally use BlindSquare when searching for nearby businesses. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 7 Jan

Hello Krister, ViaOpta Nav has acquired more features. In any case, it’s free so you can try it without wasting money. Cheers, Anne > On 7 Jan 2018, at 09:45, Krister Ekstrom wrote: > > This is the only gripe i have about the iOs platform, that no good gps > solution exists if you live ou

Re: GPS on iOS

This is the only gripe i have about the iOs platform, that no good gps solution exists if you live outside the US or UK and i think it’s too bad. Yes you can use Blindsquare but personally i don’t think it’s as intuitive as it could be. Isn’t Viaopta nav only limited to turn-by-turn instructions?

Re: GPS on iOS

I'm not sure what it does with traffic circles but what I really like about it is that as soon as you change direction, your new direction is spoken and the upcoming street is spoken right away, allowing you to get oriented very quickly. You can get this information from blindsquare but you usua

Re: GPS on iOS

Hello James, I’ve just looked for Nearby Explorer in the French Appstore and it isn’t available here. Looking at the information, it seems only to work fully in North America and Canada. I have several GPS apps and usually use BlindSquare which isn’t cheap, but there are other similar options.

Re: GPS on iOS

I wish somebody had been that positive when I was looking to purchase either Nearby Explorer or BlindSquared. Blind Squared does have some development going on which is good. When I use Blind Square, usually with just Streets and MY Places being announced it will tell me the direction I am traveli

Re: GPS on iOS

Nearby explorer is by far the best GPS app available for blind people, none of the other ones even come close to what it provides, it's well worth the price. Original message: Hi folks, Can anyone recommend any GPS apps please? I am particularly looking for something that allows me to roam f

Re: GPS on iOS

Hi James, I use a variety of apps. First, I use Google Maps in walking mode. Another one that I am quite fond of is called Nearby Explorer. I like the second app more as it addresses buildings as you pass them, name intersections, bus/train stops etc. HTH, Vaughn On 1/5/18, James Austin wrote:
