Hi,
Does blindsquare announce the street crossings as you come to them
automaticly or do you have to press a button to see what street you're about
to cross? Also, does it just use voiceover or can you get a text to speech
voice giving you direction? I often find that the voiceover voice is hard
ot hear when I'm walking and have the phone in a pocket or similar, or if
I'm in a louder environment.

Hi
The reason I use blind square is because it gives lots of POIs here in New
Zealand, which Ariadne doesn't. Ariadne is really good at giving street
numbers, and at saying exactly where you are now, but here in NZ it doesn't
give any pois. Blind Square chatters away and gives pois plus tracks your
target in terms of the clock face. I have found it really accurate here.
Both apps do different things.
I don't know how well Ariadne works where you are though,so can't tell
whether Blind Square would give more pois than ariadne for you.

Hi,
Since you use both ariadne as well as blind square, can you tell me what
the advantages to having blindsquare are over Ariadne?? I'm trying to
figure out whether I could use blind square, and therefore justify the 14
dollar price tag.
Thanks,
Tammy

Hi Mel
I use navagon, ariadne and blind square. All available from the app store.
NOt free though, sorry.
I use Color Visor which is excellent.
The money readers around don't support New Zealand currency so I don't use
one. I'm told Look Tell is very good. just search for Looktell and find
their money reader.
Good luck.

Hi all, I just got my first iPhone. I want to download blind useful

money reader, and color detecter. Mel
