Re: Navigon accessible?

2019-06-07 Thread Richard Turner

I did a web search and found a link to the "Navigon" app on the app store; 
which promptly brought up the message, this app is not available.
They said early last year that the app would still have map updates but that at 
some point it will stop functioning.
I removed it from my phone since there are other apps being maintained that do 
as much or more.

Hi again, everyone,

An addendum to my last message is that it's now not as clear as it used to be 
which states you have marked for downloading. While they are actually 
downloading, download progress is shown, and all the states you have downloaded 
are listed at the top of Map Manager, but if you're just going through the list 
to pick maps to download, VoiceOver doesn't indicate which ones are selected 
for download.

Hi Tim,
It was accessible, but it is no longer being updated.
I'd recommend Google Maps, or if in the US, Mapquest; both are free, but 
require internet access.
If you want something with maps onboard, Nearby Explorer, $79.99 is a very good 
option.

Hi,

Free Navigon Map Update In The US

2016-12-05 Thread Rob
Over the weekend, I opened Navigon and received a message that I could
download a free map update for a limited time. I don't know how long the map
update will be available.  This applies to the United States.  I don't know
if map updates are available in other countries at this time

Re: Need Some Navigon Help

2016-10-02 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Rob,

I’ve never seen a time limit on new maps for Navigon and I’ve had the app for 7 
years. You can pay for more regular map updates but I don’t bother.
Often, when there’s a major update to the app, all the maps disappear and you 
have to redownload them all.

Cheers,

Anne

RE: Need Some Navigon Help

Is there a free update for Navigon maps?  I have had Navigon for several years. 
 Usually, there is a free map update about once a year.  But I haven't seen any 
message in the app or any other indication that a map update is available.  Did 
I miss something?  There is usually a limited time to take the map update free.

Hello Jed,

I’m just getting to grips with the new look of Navigon.
In the Map Manager, no maps are downloaded automatically. You have to 
double-tap with one finger on each map that you want, then go to the bottom of 
the list and double-tap on Accept Changes or whatever it says. The selected 
maps will then start downloading, and beside each will be the amount already 
downloaded followed by a slash and the full size of the map. Clicking on the 
Open button must do something visual because all I find is a Close button.
I had to uninstall and reinstall Navigon to make the Map Manager do its job.

Cheers,

Anne

There are fields on the page to enter your question, another field to provide

I may have missed the field to enter your email address.  You may want to

Re: Navigon Update - Good And Bad News

Hello Sieghard,

The advantage of Navigon is that you can have all the maps stored on the phone 
so that you don’t need a 3G connection to use the app. For us in Europe, this 
is very useful when out of the home country.

Apart from the fact that you can download maps to the phone, I am curious what 
you consider advantages of Navigon over free apps like Apple Maps or Google 
Maps or paid solutions like the SeeingEye app which has much better 
accessibility and gives you also a lot of information you won’t get with 
Navigon. I also bought Navigon when I first got my iPhone 4 in 2010, but I 
don’t think I have used it in at least 3 or 4 years because of how good Apple 
Maps and Google Maps are and also because of the fact that I bought a 3-year

Navigon GPS app recently released version 2.16 update.  This version fixed the 
problem we had with the previous update.  We can now read the turn by turn list 
of navigation instructions.  This was broken in the previous update.

But Navigon has dramatically changed the user interface of the app.  It is now

Navigon Update - Good And Bad News

2016-08-12 Thread Rob
Navigon GPS app recently released version 2.16 update.  This version fixed the 
problem we had with the previous update.  We can now read the turn by turn list 
of navigation instructions.  This was broken in the previous update.

 

But Navigon has dramatically changed the user interface of the app.  It is now 
very map centric.  The familiar menu structure is gone.  I think the features 
are still available, but you will have to explore the various buttons and menus 
to find them.

 

I have only just begun learning the new interface.  So I cannot give any tips 
yet.

 

Rob

Subject: accessible knitting patterns app

 

Hi,

 

In the past, I've used the Lion Brand app to find knitting patterns. The search 
was accessible, and I could read the patterns with a braille display. However, 
this app crashes with iOS 10 betas. Does anyone know of another accessible app 
for finding and reading knitting patterns? I looked on AppleVis, but there was 
nothing.

 

Thanks,

Anna

Re: Navigon does not show turn by turn list

2016-07-27 Thread Jeff Samco
I noticed this when the update first came out this spring. I reported 
it to the developer and we had a few exchanges and they verified that 
feature was broken. They said it should be fixed in the next update. 
A month ago I checked to see if an update release date was known. 
They gave the usual non-committal answer that they are working on it.

So we'll just have to wait.
HTH,
Jeff

Re: which navigon app

2016-06-07 Thread Don Breda

Hi there.


Truthfully I used to be a big navigon fan but I would not recommend it 
at all anymore.



I used it a couple of weeks ago and it never alerted me when I was  at 
my destination which it was always the best at doing.



It didn't display street names anymore in some cases as it used to but 
instead displayed route numbers which were not helpful to me since I 
didn't know the area.



Gry google maps.

It depends in which country you live.

If you are in the United States, you can buy Navigon for your region, Western,

As others will point out, Google Maps does a good job and is free.  Though in 
some cases, I’ve found Navigon finds things that Google doesn’t.

 

If you are in the United States, mapQuest is also very good, but they won’t let

Re: Navigon support Email perhaps

2016-05-08 Thread Tom Frank
I had problems getting Navigon to download the sound files for turn by turn 
directions. In disgust I deleted the app and reinstalled it.

It works like a charm now. One secret I found is to download really large files 
on Sunday mornings. 
 Downloading and reinstalling Navigon and all of the maps took about ten 
minutes.  I think the total size is about six gigs. Happy reinstalling.

Yes, you're right. I noticed this about 3 weeks

They even directed me to an error reporting page 
which I did complete. However, they have not 
responded back in any additional way since then. 
I'm thinking I might contact them for an update.

I can confirm this problem.
I'm not finding a way to write them from within the app.
Do you have an email address for them?

Navigon GPS Turn By Turn List

2016-04-22 Thread Rob
After upgrading to the latest version of Navigon GPS, I find that the turn by 
turn list of instructions for any route I start is always an empty list.  This 
happens when I choose "vehicle" when starting a route.  I don't even see the 
option for a turn by turn list when I choose "pedestrian" when starting a 
route.  I am using iOS 9.3.1 on an iPhone 5S.

 

Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Have you found a work around?

Free Map Update For Navigon USA

2015-11-06 Thread Rob
When I opened the Navigon GPS app today, I received an alert that I have a free 
map update available.  Navigon usually provides a free map update once a year 
for a limited time.  It looks like now is the time for 2015, at least in the 
United States.  I do not know how long the free update will be available.
Get it now while it is hot!

Hi

 

Thanks for the suggestion.  I've been playing around a bit.  Firstly, I went to 
that edit box, then I pressed the home button to speak to Siri.  It will then 
find the info, but not via navigon.  Next, I tried the dictation feature, being 
in the edit field, and then activating dictation and speak the address.  Now, 
the info would be entered into the field, and could then tap on search, and 
navigate to that address.  I guess I did not think of the normal dictation 
function on the keyboard as being part of Siri's work.  That seems for me the 
only way it works, unless I am missing something.  Thanks for helping.

Free Map Update For Navigon GPS App

2014-10-20 Thread Rob
If you have already purchased Navigon, Navigon is offering a free update of
its maps for a limited time.  I updated my maps for the USA last night.  I
do not know if the same update offer is available for other countries.
Navigon offers free map updates about once each year.  If you have Navigon,
don't miss this chance to get the updated maps.
If you have used Navigon in the last several days, you have already seen the
message about the offer.  You can confirm that the offer is available to you
by starting the Navigon app.  If the offer is available, you will see a
message about the offer before you reach the main screen of Navigon.
You should be on a Wi-Fi network to download the new maps.  I also recommend
that your device be connected to a battery charger during the process so you
don't lose power.
When you are ready to update the maps, start Navigon and double tap the "Map
Manager" icon at the end of the promotion message before you reach the main
screen of Navigon.
The next screen shows a list of the maps you currently have installed.
Since I had the entire USA installed, I am not sure if all of the states in
the regions you purchased appear or if only the maps you downloaded appear.
If all states appear, the ones you have installed will be checked.  Take
this opportunity to be sure you know which maps you already have installed.
Swipe up with 3 fingers several times to reach the end of the list.
Carefully read the message at the end of the list.  When you double tap the
"Ok" button, Navigon will delete all of the maps you currently have
installed and then the Navigon app closes.
Start Navigon again.  You now begin the process of selecting which maps you
want to download.  Only the maps in regions you have previously purchased
will be in the list.  There is a button at the top of the list that you can
use to select all maps.  Go through the list and check or uncheck maps to
indicate which maps you want to install.  Each map identifies the amount of
space it uses.
Scroll to the end of the list and double tap the "Update" button to begin
the map download process.
The amount of time required for the update will vary greatly depending on
how many maps you download and the speed of your internet connection.  It
may require as much as a couple of hours.
When the download process has finished, you will see a button at the end of
the map list that says something like "Start Navigon".  Since I am working
from memory, the actual label on the button may be different.  When you
double tap this button, Navigon will proceed to the main screen.  The map
update process is complete.
Hope this helps.

If your main interest is knowing where you are, I think blindsquare is
better. However, if you want turn by turn navigation, it might be worth
the price since blindsquare does not provide this directly, however,
there are good main stream apps that will do this as well.

Re: the map download screen of Navigon - Re: Seeing Eye GPS App, Worth It?

2014-09-29 Thread Eileen Misrahi
What's nice about Navigon is that I can download the maps I only need at a 
given time. Therefore, I'm able to save GB space on the phone. Also, once a 
year the maps are upgraded for free. I don't need much more than that in my 
area. If I really want or need the full function of Sendero GPS, I'll use it on 
my BrailleNote Apex. I could be mistaken, but I haven't heard if the Seeing 
Eye-Sendero app has added the ability to create a manual route like in the 
Apex. I use "My Way Lite" to create a bread crumb route and it has worked quite 
well. JMO.

the map download screen of Navigon - Re: Seeing Eye GPS App, Worth It?

2014-09-29 Thread Charles Rivard
Because the subject matter has changed, I changed the subject line for 
accurate reflection.


To get past the map download screen of Navigon, I go through and check the 
maps I want to download, then use the "download all" button in the bottom 
left corner of the screen after you have swiped past the last map listed. 
It takes quite a while to download all of the maps, but, eventually, it will 
have done so.  I suggest using WiFi, as this will take a whole huge bunch of 
your cellular data if you do not.

If your main interest is knowing where you are, I think blindsquare is

there are good main stream apps that will do this as well.

Re: how to insert starting address in Navigon

2014-07-01 Thread Terje Strømberg
It looks like it is possible. Create and save. Open when at one of the 
destinations. I have not tried it in practice yet.

1. Be sure you are in main menu.
2. A button at the bottom right called <>, press that.
3. At the top you will find <>, press that.
4. At the top right is a button called <> or something 
simular. Hit that button and chose a destination. Do this as many times you 
want to have destinations or POI's.
5. Hit the button at top left called something like <>.
6. Hit the button called <> at the bottom right. Choose to save the route 
for later use.
7. Hit the button at the top right called <>. Here again you can 
calculate a route, change position, delete all(will not delete routes saved, 
only routes in this window), get a route(saved route), designate a destination 
or POI.

Now it comes to my mind as i type, i used this saved routes sometimes a 1-2 
years back and it worked.

Take care

Re: Turn-By-turn Directions Only With Car Mode In Navigon

2014-06-24 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hi Richard,

I just checked the settings and "pedestrian with voice annoucements" is 
selected. The difference that I observed through VO speaking was after the 
address was entered and the first "start route" was double tapped on to select 
the type of route to be used. When in pedestrian mode in the options, there 
isn't a button for turn-by-turn directions like seen with the car mode. I was 
just wondering if I am just discovering this now or is it a bug that I never 
knew about. Thanks for your response.

Best,
Eileen

Go into settings, then route, and flick right to pedestrian,   and if it says 
pedestrian  pedestrian mode, then double tap pedestrian and flick right to 
where it says pedestrian mode with street announcements and double tap.
See if that was the trouble.
This also assumes you have the setting under sound to include voice with street 
names.

When in pedestrian mode, there is only a button to recall the directions and no

I have Navigon and Sendero GPS Lookaround; should I purchase Blindsquare?

2013-12-23 Thread Gmail
I will admit, the price is putting me off a little. I think if I did buy it, 
I'd wait until it went on sale. Either that, or I got an iTunes gift card. :)

I've seen quite a few discussions of  Blindsquare on this list, and I have some 
questions.
1. Can I mark my own points of interest with this app? I'm pretty sure I can, 
but wanted to make sure. I'd be marking things like bus stops and maybe some 
landmarks. I'm moving to a new area that I don't know at all, which is why I'm 
asking this.
2. If I can mark points of interest, do I have to do this as audio recordings, 
or can I just use the keyboard to make a text label that either the Acappella 
voice or VoiceOver will read?
3. I was reading the help file posted on Blindsquare's website, and it said 
something about me needing to put my phone in my pocket with the screen facing 
backwards. Is this strictly speaking necessary? Can I do this with the OtterBox 
Defender case and Belt clip?
4. I plan to use this app, if I get it, in conjunction with Navigon. Won't I 
need to see the screen for Navigon sometimes? The screen facing backwards thing 
is something I've never come across before, and it's never posed an issue with 
Navigon or Sendero GPS Lookaround.
5. I heard about the iControlPad, and that it can be used to control 
Blindsquare. Have any of you used this device? If so, did you like it? Was it 
easy to operate?
6. Why might I want blind Square if I already have Sendero GPS Lookaround, 
other than the ability to mark my own points of interest?
7. How often would you say the app goes on sale, and what tends to be the usual 
sale price? I would be buying this from the U.S. App Store.
8. Does the app come with the ability to get other voices, besides those from 
Acappella, like the Voice Dream Reader app does?

I think that's all my questions for now.


Thanks,
Ari

Re: blind square and google maps/navigon

2013-12-04 Thread Richard Turner
Hi,
With Blind Square alone, it will announce cross streets as you are walking, 
riding, whatever. You can "Track" a destination, which means it will announce 
direction and distance every so often. For example, 1000 feet northeast; then a 
little later, 600 feet east, etc.
Along the way, you will hear the cross streets.
If you also want turn-by-turn directions, then from Blind Square, once you have 
found the point of interest or entered an address you want to go to, there is 
an option to  "plan a route." then Blind Square will ask which navigation app 
you want to use, then you pick the one you want. Google Maps is free and does a 
very nice job.
If you already have Navigon, that will work also. Or you can use the Apple Maps.
Depending how often you need turn-by-turn directions, you may find you can get 
along with just Blind Square.
HTH,


Richard

blind square and google maps/navigon

2013-12-04 Thread Andrew Head
Hi all,
I have some questions related to gps. 
I use sense navigation on the braille sense as my primary gps device, and am 
looking into using a pocket size gps solution for when I go out to parties or 
restaurants where it’s easier to slip something into your pocket, rather than 
carrying a backpack to store the braille sense, since it’s too to fit in your 
pocket as I have the U2 model. Another point, it is also too expensive to leave 
lying around so I wouldn’t want to leave something like that unattended. 
I am looking into the captain gps as a possibility, but a friend  suggested I 
try out either google maps or navigon in conjunction with blind square. 
I don’t like the idea of needing multiple gps apps on my phone, especially when 
there are alternatives that might cost a bit like the captain, but everything 
is in one program. My friend said blind square announces points of interest 
even in the background which would be good and I wouldn’t have to switch 
between apps, but how do google maps or navigon go with cross streets? 
I’m going to give these a try but just wanted to hear other users experiences. 
Hope everyone has a good day,
Andrew

Re: Sendero look around, Navigon and blind square

2013-11-15 Thread Caitlyn furness
Well, they each do different things.
Blind square is wonderful and I wouldn’t be without it, but it’s not quite a 
full featured GPS.

Navigon is good for navigating to a specific address, especially if I happen to 
be with a sighted friend who might be driving.

Look around is good for poi’s around you that you might not know about or for a 
quick check of what street you’re on or what intersection is coming up, but the 
info you get from look around is very limited.

I still have all three and have them in their own folder on my dock.  I use 
blindsquare the most.  Between blindsquare, ariadne, and my guide dog, I do 
pretty well at finding most things I’m looking for.

  I'm experiencing the same frustrating behavior. I'm not sure if it's 
refreshing or not, but when attempting to swipe through the states, to download 
individual maps, the sound of a page loading is heard, and it's near impossible 
to get to the desired state without pure luck. I've haven't experienced this in 
the past. I don't when it may have started because I haven't needed to download 
maps in a while.

Re: fixed my first navigon issue now another issue

2013-10-24 Thread Patrick Neazer
Hello Brett and all:

OK, let me see if I understand. you are experiencing refreshing when attempting 
to download individual maps? so, you are not attempting to download all of the 
maps at once? Is that correct?

The answer is going to be the same though I wanted to make sure that I 
understood what you were attempting to do.

You may not like the following answer though it does work … it is sort of how I 
discovered that Idaho was loading first :).

If you drag your finger down the screen, you will hear individual states 
mentioned. when you get to the bottom of the screen, hearing the last state on 
the screen, flick right. the screen will repopulate with the next states in the 
alphabetical list. so, when I slide my finger down the screen and come to 
California , it is the last state on the screen. if I flick right and then 
touch the screen again, Colorado and Connecticut show up at the top of the 
screen. sliding to the bottom of the screen again brings me to Florida … flick 
right and presto … Georgia and Hawaii are visible … and so is Idaho :).

It is a little slow if you are attempting to get to Vermont though it does work 
and updating maps does not occur every day.

Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.

Take good care and I wish you enough.

Re: fixed my first navigon issue now another issue

2013-10-23 Thread Brett C.
I'm experiencing the same frustrating behavior. I'm not sure if it's refreshing 
or not, but when attempting to swipe through the states, to download individual 
maps, the sound of a page loading is heard, and it's near impossible to get to 
the desired state without pure luck. I've haven't experienced this in the past. 
I don't when it may have started because I haven't needed to download maps in a 
while.

Hello and Troy:

I am glad to hear that your processing well with Navigon.

As to your question pertaining to refreshing, if you have not received an 
answer already could you please provide a little detail of your concern? I am 
not experiencing any refreshing … that does not mean that it is not going on … 
just cannot as of yet reproduce your challenge.

Take good care and I wish you enough.

RE: Navigon Hawaii

2013-09-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I haven't used the Seeing Eye app yet so I couldn't tell you if it's easier,
but my guess is that in some ways it might be. Don't forget that you require
a constant data connection for the Seeing Eye app to access maps, Navigon
allows you to download the maps to your device.

RE: Navigon Hawaii

2013-09-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Avnish,

I have had no issues with the latest version of Navigon. However, keep in
mind that Navigon does have a bit of a learning curve. If you buy it and use
it for the first time when you are in the car in Hawaii and expect to be an
expert navigator then this will probably not happen. There are tutorials I
believe, unfortunately I am just starting my day and it's a busy and long
one so I can't find them for you right now.


Good luck,
Sieghard

Hi Avnish,

It appears that only Navigon North America includes Hawaii. Below is a link
to the app in the app store:

https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/navigon-north-america/id321506742?mt=8

Price is $59.99 which is twice of the $29.99 Navigon United States West
costs, but the regional versions of Navigon only mention States of the
continental US. Navigon North America mentions coverage of Puerto Rico,
Virgin Islands and Canada, but while Hawaii for some reason is not
specifically mentioned, I can assure you that it is included since I have
Navigon North America and used it on Maui last year. For all I know Navigon
United States West does include it and it's not mentioned, but you would
have to write to them and ask. Otherwise it's spend $30 more and buy the
version which covers all of North America.

Does anyone know which version of Navigon covers Hawaii? I've tried

RE: Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-29 Thread Esther
Hi Eileen,

Glad I could  help.  Let me give the full name and URL of the "Where To?" app I 
was describing as an alternative to using Navigon Now,  since there's another 
(different) app named "Where To Go?"
• Where To? -- GPS Points of Interest (currently $2.99) by FutureTap GmbH
https://itunes.apple.com/nz/app/where-to-gps-points-interest/id314785156?mt=8

I also use AroundMe, and in some ways its searching options are simpler.  But 
since the switch to iOS 6, I've found it to be much clunkier to use it for 
sending addresses to a GPS navigation app. And I find the category breakdowns 
for POIs in "Where To?" more helpful.

Raul posted recently about using HopStop as a free public transportation 
navigation app:
• HopStop for iPhone
http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone%40googlegroups.com/msg36692.html

Here's the link to my follow-up post describing how to send destinations from a 
POI search in  "Where To?" to HopStop, and why using AroundMe for the same task 
was so much clunkier. 
• Re: HopStop for iPhone
http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone%40googlegroups.com/msg37394.html

(Basically, you can get routed to the Maps app, but only with the option for 
walking or driving.  In order to get public transportation options, you have to 
back out and cancel to change your navigation options, and it's not as simple 
to send your address to such a wide range of navigation apps easily, compared 
to using "Where To?".  This wasn't an issue before iOS 6, but now I find "Where 
To?" much easier to use for sending addresses to navigation apps than AroundMe.)

Cheers,

Esther

Hi Esther, 

You are awesome. I will make sure that I copy and paste all of this info
into a word doc for future reference until I get use to using "Where To Go."
I do have the app on my phone, but I have usually opened "Around Me" to do
my searches for POIS. This is so helpful. Thanks again and I will begin
working with "Where To Go" to make it my choice of app to send addresses to
one of my many GPS apps. 

Cordially, 
Eileen

Subject: Navigon Now Not Working?

Hi Eileen,
I don't think the Navigon Now app works any more.  If you read the app store
reviews sorted by date, the last consistent batch of positive reviews were
at the end of March.  Many comments elsewhere say that this stopped working
after one of the recent Navigon updates.  I always get "Failed parsing
address" messages when I try to use it. Instead, I'm using a similar app
called NavAssist Navigation App Helper that was released in 2011, and that
still seems to work.  NavAssist can send addresses to either Navigon or
TomTom, but it no longer seems to be sold in the App Store..

One reason for using Navigon Now in the past was that Navigon didn't
correctly parse addresses selected from your contacts, especially when they
included modifiers like room or suite numbers, and I don't think that's a
problem now. So you can select contact addresses directly from within
Navigon by choosing "contacts" in the list from the "more" tab (5 of 5).

Another app that I like to use as an alternate way for sending addresses to
Navigon is the "Where To?" app for POI selection. You also have the option
of selecting from your contacts in Where To?, either to set the location for
your POI searches, or to directly send a contact address to a routing app
like Navigon, or TomTom, Motion X GPS Drive, Garmin, etc.  I like the fact
that I can also use "Where To?" to send addresses to public transportation
apps like Hop Stop, whereas the same process is very clunky from AroundMe.

Double tap the "search" button of Where To. If you have just launched the
app, focus will be on this button ( in the top left corner). In the search
field, where VO says "search or address", flick right to the button and
double tap.  Your contacts should become available and VO should announce
"choose a contact to search near".  Then access your contacts as usual: you
can use the table index at the right side of the screen, or flick to the
search field to type in part of a name to search. If there is more than one
address, such as for home and work, double tap to select the one you want to
use.   Otherwise, if there's a single address, you'll be taken directly to a
Where To screen that is a map mode display view. To send this address to
routing apps, do a four finger tap on the bottom half of the screen to move
to the "add" button in the bottom right corner, and double tap.  You'll be
on a screen listing "Routing Apps" which will list those on your iPhone, and
then other that are available fro the App Store, along with their rating and
purchase price. Flick through to the name of the app you want to use, such
as Navigon MobileNavigator, Maps, Hop Stop, etc., and then flick to the
"Route" button for that app and double tap.  Your selected routing app will
lainch with the address loaded.  For example, if I've loaded in the address
for a doctor and double tapped the route button for Navigon, that app will
launch, and if I flick right I'll find the "Start navigation" button.  A
further flick right announces the name of the contact, followed by latitude
and longitude, then street address.

If you want to launch a second contacts search from the last screen in the
"Where To?" app, the "search" button will be in the top right corner.  Now
if you've double tapped on the "search" button and flick right in the search
field, the button will be labeled "bookmarks".  This still gives you access
to your contacts if you double tap, just as before, although it's a little
weird.

The "Where To?" search button can also be used to type in a business name or
address, so if you find that when you're in the search field, and there's no
additional button to bring up contacts, usually because you previously used
this field to type in a search entry, or if the only button that's announced
when you flick right  is for "clear text", flick right past this button and
the "cancel" button to "search address" and double tap. Then flick left back
to the search filed and a button for contacts should be there.

HTH.  I like the " Where To?&q

HTH.  I like the " Where To?" app's POI selections, so I use this more for POI 
searches than the Navigon features.  And, as you can see, you can also use 
"Where To?" to select addresses from your contacts and send them to Navigon 
without having to type them in.  The additional bonus is that "Where To?" can 
send addresses to all your other navigation apps, too, and even to public 
transportation apps like Hop Stop.  Plus, I've always liked the fact that if I 
use Where To? To search for a POI, and use list view for results (e.g., the

Re: Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-29 Thread Patrick Neazer
Good morning Eileen and all:

I used Navigon last evening out in California and it worked as it should. I 
mention that not to let the list know I am doing something wonderful in 
California. I mention that only because it is not the state I usually use 
Navigon in and so it is working even though I am on the move.

Does it completely lock up? What iPhone are you using? did you purchase the 
quarterly map updates? sometimes when it wants me to update maps it sometimes 
appears locked … what is really happening is that the OK and cancel buttons are 
hiding somewhere at the bottom of the screen and I have to fish around for them 
:).

I am sure telling you that it works on my end while it might not work on yours 
is just what you wanted to hear :). if you could provide a few more details, 
possibly we could be of more assistance.

Hopefully some of the information in this email proved of use to you. Please 
let us know.

take good care and I wish you enough.

Navigon Now Not Working?

Hello List,
I was wondering if anyone has used Navigon Now" recently. I attempted to use it 
today, but when I went to launch it to Navigon to begin the navigation, it just 
hung and wouldn't open it. I haven't had a chance to delete it from the phone 
and install it again to see if it would fix it. Any advice would be greatly 
appreciated, as it speed up the process when putting in an address into all of 
the edit fields in Navigon.
Thanks.

Re: Taking Navigon offroad?

2013-07-10 Thread Tom Frank
When I traveled to Alaska last Summer with my wife, I added a lot of POIs to 
Ariadne. The hotel in Anchorage is 3423 miles from my home.  When we got off 
the cruise boat, I always added the end of the dock as a POI. Then we could 
always find our way back to the boat. My wife is sighted, but, if she was in a 
closet with one door labeled, exit, she would have problems finding her way 
out. With Ariadne, I'm the one who keeps track of where we are.

It tells you distance and clockface.

 

For example, I recently added the washington monument to my favorites this
way, from my home in South Carolina. It told me 400 and something miles at 2
o'clock.

Then as I was on the train, the distance shrank, and it was at 12 o'clock .

 

When I got to Washington DC, I could navigate to it, keeping it at 12 as
much as I could.

 

A few months ago, I tried my way lite, and couldn't get it to work that
well. When I got to a point, it told me the distance to the next point, but
not the direction.

I use ariadne for this kind of orientation. It also helped me out of a spot.

 

I got on a city bus, but after getting on, the driver changed the route
number and I started going to a different part of town than I was expecting
to go.

Using Ariadne, I knew where my house was, distance and clockface.

So when I got as close as I could (1 mile) I got off and used it to get me
home.

If I had stayed on the bus to the transit station, then took the right bus,
it would have taken me over an hour. 

 

I am anticipating the Breadcrumb app from LookTel. There is no timetable as
to when it will be out, but if they continue to put out such awesome
products, it will be the best app for this type of off-road, or point to

Paul,

 

Navigon like most mainstream GPS products designed principally for vehicular
usage will not allow you to use them for off road use.

 

niavigon does not have a direction of POI or destination in terms of
cardinal direction, and you cannot set a destination based on long/lat, in
fact, you cannot enter these manually at all.

My second question is also about navigon... I am assuming that you can enter
your destination as a latitude and longtitude as opposed to a postal code or
street name?

For context, I am looking for ways to improve my enjoyment of geocaching.

Many thanks for any help you can provide.

RE: Taking Navigon offroad?

I have added points  as favorites with ariadne and then navigated to those
points.
 
Look in favorites and there should be fields for adding latitude and
longitude.

Hi Tom,

 

Thanks for the info, very interesting. I had a quick look at Ariadne but it
appears that you have to actually go to a place to add it as a waypoint
where as I would like to be able to enter a location using latitude and
longitude and then have it give me the straight line distance and direction
to get there.

 

Thanks for your reply though.

I haven't found any way to take Navigon off road. As a matter of fact, I
cannot even set up a route in advance since my home is 550 feet from the
main road and Navigon will only give me the first instruction.

 

Have you tried Ariadne GPS??It's a fantastic program that I use often.  I
use it to mark points of interest around the lake where I vacation so I can
figure out where i am when kayaking. It will give you straight line

Re: Taking Navigon offroad?

2013-07-08 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
Paul,

Navigon like most mainstream GPS products designed principally for vehicular 
usage will not allow you to use them for off road use.

niavigon does not have a direction of POI or destination in terms of cardinal 
direction, and you cannot set a destination based on long/lat, in fact, you 
cannot enter these manually at all.

HTH

RE: navigon maps

2013-07-03 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi May,

When you are in Navigon, double tap the "Extras" tab just above the home
key. Here you find all the in-app purchases listed with their associated
costs. Fresh Maps XL North America is listet and it costs $20 a year and you
will get quarterly map updates. I haven't used Navigon in a while since
mostly I want information when I'm walking along without having to actually
set up a route so when I just opened Navigon I was prompted to download the
Q2 map update for 2013, most likely I will not buy this for 2014 now that I
have the Seeing Eye app. I understand that you find the Seeing Eye app an
unnecessary expense since you own a Breeze, but for somebody who doesn't the
Seeing Eye app currently will be the most complete and user friendly GPS app
available. BlindSquare works very well also, but it does not give me
intersection information and I always like the "Get Warmer" feature when I
had MobileGeo so I am happy to have it back now.


Regards,
Sieghard

You will need to look up the Navigon app in the app store, pull up the app 
description and then read under the heading in app purchases. Sigrid has 
provided additional information which may be helpful as well. Thanks.

Taking Navigon offroad?

2013-07-03 Thread Paul Weston
Hi all,

Can any navigon users out there tell me is it only good for street
navigation, or can it be useful when country walking or hiking in terms of
direction finding to waypoints? For example does it provide you of the
straightline direction and distance of a waypoint even when no roads or
paths exist?

My second question is also about navigon... I am assuming that you can enter
your destination as a latitude and longtitude as opposed to a postal code or
street name?

For context, I am looking for ways to improve my enjoyment of geocaching.

Many thanks for any help you can provide.

Paul

RE: Navigon Questions

2013-06-20 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Sarah,

 

Chuck did a good job answering your questions, but is there a reason why you
don't want to upgrade to the latest version of Navigon? It is just as
accessible and I think probably runs better on a 4S than the older version.
I also think your version probably requires all maps to be on the computer
which, if you have the North America version, takes up about 2 Gb if I
remember this correctly. The last few versions have a Map Manager and you
can just download the maps for your State or for several States you visit
frequently.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: Navigon Questions

 

Hello,

 

I have several Navigon questions.

 

First of all, I know I have a somewhat older version, since I am still using
the one I downloaded in late 2011 right after I got my 4s. How do I find
which version of Navigon I have?

 

My next two questions might be dependent on which version I am using.

Though I can't remember how I did this, at some point I obviously let
Navigon know what my home address is, because I am able to click on the
button to "Take me home." But now I have to change this address. So where do
I go to do that?

 

Also, up until now I've only used Navigon while in a vehicle. Is there a way
to do a route in pedestrian mode? If so how do I do this?

 

Thanks,

Sarah

Re: Navigon Questions

Hello Sarah, 
I am up to date and I am running version two point four point two.. To find the 
version you are running go to the settings tab at the bottom of the screen, 
then hit the product information button at the upper right. 
To change your address tap the tape me home button,, then to the more tab on 
the bottom. You will find a delete home address button. Hit this and confirm. 
Now go back to the main screen and hit address button. Enter your new address 
in the sequence it asks for, city, street, number. Once you do this, go back to 
more tab and select make this my home address. 

To select pedestrian mode hit take me home then hit more. Flick right to route 
profile. Now flick right until you hear pedestrian. Double tap to select with 
voice announcements. 
Hope this helps,

Re: navigon

2013-06-14 Thread Patrick Neazer
Hello Brian and all:

The following information is from memory so it is suspect … LOL.

If you open Navigon and double tap on the more tab which is located in the 
lower right-hand corner, you will be taken to a list that includes map manager. 
If you are using an older version, you will be prompted to upgrade. that ends 
the memory portion of the show … LOL 

If you have the newer version after double tapping more you should see a 
variety of extras that you can purchase. be warned, in order to get the latest 
and most accurate maps there is a subscription cost … take heed. it is only 
$19.95 for two years and the maps are updated quarterly. 

Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.

Take good care and I wish you enough.

Re: navigon

2013-06-12 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

I just opened Navigon and assessed where the "repeat" button is. After 
inputting an address or selecting one from your list, you need to tap on "start 
navigation"button twice. The repeat button should be in a list of menu items at 
that point. I am running the latest version because that option was there. 
Check it out. HTH.

Best,
Eileen

Hello Brian and all:

I have to ask that boring of all boring questions … what version of Navigon are 
you using? :)

There have been some updates and it looks a bit different in the version 2 
series.

Here is a clue. Have you come across the "speak last spoken direction button" 
yet? If not, that indicates that you may be using the previous generation of navigon.

Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.

Take good care and I wish you enough.

I hadn't used it for a while and yesterday tried to set up a route to an

no matter which I picked, couldn't get voiced turn by turn directions.

has this vanished or did they just move it?

if so, can someone enlighten me as to where?

thanks.Brian.

Hey Briayn:
I had the same problem once but it went away by itself. I've never
seen an option for turn by turn directions. They just worked
automatically.

You're welcome. Navigon is my GPS of choice right now. I am waiting to see
what Sendero-Seeing Eye app will have to say whenever it is release. I have
other Sendero products, but I think there can be a work around if the cost

Hi Brian, 

Once you are done with inputting the address, there will be an "Option"
button in the upper right corner. Tap on that. Towards the bottom of this
page, it should say something like this "Turn-By-Turn Directions" (without
the quotes). Usually, I have no problem once I start the navigation to get
the voice to announce the turn-by-turn directions. You can get it to repeat
by tapping on the lower left corner where it gives the miles left to the
next WavePoint. I am not sure if this is your concern withNavigon. I just
used it last night to get my husband back on the correct freeway home. HTH.

Hello listers,

On a similar line, if you have bought Navigon in the UK, do you have to 
purchase another Navigon programme if you wish to use Navigon in the US, or can 
you purchase North American maps to use with your original version?

Thanks for any help,
