Let's see, Apple Maps (free), Google Maps (free), Around Me, Ariadne GPS, and a few others. That said, your statement would be somewhat more accurate if you said, a GPS app written for the blind, but you are still forgetting Look Around, which is overpriced at $4.95. David Chittenden, MSc, MRC

Hi, I don't think Blind Square will ever have turn by turn built in. The way they do it is to pass turn by turn off to another GPS application such as google maps or navigon. This approach saves the developer the trouble of reinventing the wheel as the apps that do turn by turn do it well.
