How do those who have tried the scene channel on Microsoft's app think it 
compares to the Tap Tap See app in terms of accuracy, ease of use, etc.?

Hi,
I must say, I'm quite impressed with the short text, document and product 
functions of this app so far. Haven't played with the Scene Beta and Person 
(face recognition)  functions much yet. I've got lots of exploring to do and I 
intend to do just that when I get home tonight. I'd say that this is a pretty 
darn good app, a definite keeper. However, be forewarned that it may drain your 
batteries pretty quickly, so watch out for that. Nice job, Microsoft.

 I just now downloaded on my SE.
 It was absolutely free for me, and I live in the US; Florida.
 This one’s a definite home run for sure!
 
 This app’s gonna blow those high dollar smart glasses away, I think.

 has anybody downloaded the app for this project?  If so how good is it
 and how much does it cost.  I know it isn’t available in the u.k. yet
 but just wondered what it actually can do.

Seeing Eye GPS and Intersections

2017-07-12 Thread Hooper, Robert M.
Hello All:

Has anybody encountered problems with the Seeing Eye GPS app for iPhone not 
announcing intersections? I have checked all the relevant settings (i.e. I have 
the announce intersections setting set to "always," and intersections are 
included in look around). POIs are announced seemingly without error, and I 
have tried switching the POI sources (although I'm sure that the POI and 
intersection functions are independent). I should note that I have strolled 
down all the avenues of traditional tech support preliminaries: location 
services are enabled (globally and for the app), both the app and iOS are up to 
date, the phone has been rebooted, etc. I have emailed Sendero, but never 
having been obliged to contact them previously, I do not know how long they 
typically take to respond, so I thought that I would seek input from the list 
as well. Let me know if you have experienced this issue as well as how you were 
able to resolve it (if indeed the problem was resolved).
Regards,
Robert Hooper
