google maps in general
HI all. IF anyone is actually using this thing successfully to get directions to or from anywhere, I would be interested to hear about it. A quick step by step walk through of how you set a start and end point for a route would be helpful. voice directions would be nice but aren't completely necessary. if there is a podcast or something I can listen to, am happy to do that too but have never had any success getting this thing to work.

So what did I do incorrectly or can you not get spoken turn by turn directions using that app or apps on the iPhone 4?

google maps in general
Actually, I have been using Google maps very successfully during the three-week road trip. My wife, who is cited, has been the driver. I have been the navigator. When the app opens, type on the search icon. When the search box opens in the typewriter keyboard exposes itself, simply type in the address you want to go to. The app then assumes that you are going to want directions based on your current location. When using the app for the first time, try and get cited assistance. After that, you should be able to use it by yourself. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.

I am successfully using Apple maps. Have you tried this service. it offers turn by turn driving directions and will offer turn by turn walking directions in iOS 7.

Re: google maps in general
Kevin, it's my impression that the "start" button, which initiates verbal turn-by-turn instructions, was not identifiable by blind users using VoiceOver. Has this been remedied?

Cause I know you can on the iPhone 4 S and the iPhone 5 using ciri you can just say something like navigate to and where ever you would like to go. then it will open its maps app and then how do you get it to start giving you the spoken directions?
