Re: Third Party Turn-by-Turn Direction Apps with Blindsquare (was, Seeing Eye GPS)

Seeing Eye GPS doesn't have API that could be used to connect into it. As soon it gets one, it will be available also in BlindSquare. BlindSquare has such API so other apps can connect into it: http://blindsquare.com/api/1-0/ In next version there will be even more possibilities, like sta

Hi guys I have tried BlindSquare with Navigon, and it works fine. I did try to send co-ordinates to The Seeing Eye GPS, and BlindSquare didn't recognize it. I guess because it's new. I have discovered that I would rather send co-ordinates from BlindSquare than type the address in

Re: Seeing Eye GPS

Isn't the voice guidance $10 a month not just $10? That would mean $120 per year for turn by turn and the whole set up is not as convenient as having it all in one app, which is what you get with seeing Eye, which ends up being cheaper, if my supposition about cost for Motion X is right. Mary

Re: Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

NOel, I think you hit the nail on the head. You'd have less battery drain if you used an external receiver, and you'd theoretically have better accuracy. But you'd also have to carry an extra little device. And if you're happy with the iPhone and no extra receiver, and battery drain hasn't been

Re: Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

What would be advantages of using a bt GPS receiver vs the built in iPhone 5 receiver? Less drain on iPhone battery? Accuracy? I regularly get 13 ft accuracy which is much better than my old 5 but I had a bt GPS I used with my trekker and it was ok, great for its time Ner On Jun 3, 2013, at 7:50

Re: Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

Here's the thing: to work with iOS, a bluetooth receiver has to be certified by Apple. Some are, and most aren't which is why some work and some don't. A quick google search should provide a list of compatible receivers. Again, though, if the Sendero app does not cache maps, this is all moot sin

Re: Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

The receivers are standard, and Mike, I bet when you bought some or all of those receivers, they were not 20 bucks. I have an iblue 747, for instance, and it didn't cost me 20 bucks. I haven't checked the prices of the two that Cara mentioned lately, but they are bluetooth and they are standard

Re: Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

Wonder how much those receivers are. Are they bluetooth? I have several bluetooth receivers that do not work, the holux 1000, the qstarz 818, and the iblue 737. These use mtk chip sets which are quite accurate. Each receiver costs around $20 -- You received this message because you are subscri

Standard BT GPS recievers with iDevices -was- Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

Hi Mike, can you clarify your comment about the external receivers not working with iDevices? Obviously the Dual Electronics XGPS and Garmin GLO both work quite nicely with the iDevices and they are standard units. What did you mean to say? Thanks a bunch and have a great day! Smiles, Cara :)

Re: Seeing Eye GPS APP

Not at all. The app will work with gps on phones and cellular-enabled iPads. You only need a receiver if you have a wifi-only device, and even then the app won't work right if it does not cache maps locally. Any server-based gps app, as many of them are, requires a constant data connection to wo
