Seing Eye GPS has User Points of Interest option that is supposed to work exactly like regular Points of Interests. I’ve personally not tried it yet but based on the description it should be pretty cool.

It would say things like, Mailbox 800 feet at 10 o’clock. Seeing Eye GPS recently added waypoints. I have not tried them, but I gather if you walk a route it will mark your turns and you could make the mailbox a favorite. I cannot remember the name of the app that is primarily designed to track the path you walk and allow you to retrace it. Is it MyWay classic? There are probably others.

But, once you find the point of interest you want, Blind Square can launch Google maps, Apple Maps, or several paid GPS apps. If all you want is the turn-by-turn directions, Google Maps does a fine job.

Can you do the same with a GPS app like blindsquare? Say can you get directions from my house to a point of interest? Is there a GPS app that can do something like that?
